For that, the September issue of American Vogue and the social network Instagram, represented by Vogue Magazine s account and by fashion bloggers accounts Tuula Vintage, Chiara Ferragni and Thássia Naves, are objects of investigation. The categorization method holds the analysis in order to establish matches between the contents related in Vogue and Instagram accounts posts, pointing in which aspects they are similar and in which aspects they are distinct. The theoretical point of view take into account the concepts of participatory culture and affective economy suggested by Jenkins (2011), and the variability principle thought by Manovich (2002).
