Abstract

The article intends to address some social interaction dynamics that
exists in digital environments, from the analysis of a specific media tool: fashion
blogs. Web pages with this profile won expressiveness, allowing the development
of relevant interational dynamics, arousing several comments with the most
diverse goals. This expressiveness contributed to fashion blogs – with active and
numerous visitors – gain relevance in the fashion field, even outside the web,
indicating the power of these media nowadays. In this sense, new social actors
emerge – the fashion female bloggers – motivating specific and interactive
dynamics. To understand this dynamics, we used some concepts and studies
developed by the Canadian author Erving Goffman.
