Google's Top-Searched High-Fashion Brands of 2013 Are Versace, Michael Kors, Diesel Black Gold, Gucci, and Kate Spade
It’s the end of the year as we know it and the data-analyzers over at Google have compiled the all important list — the most searched fashion brands of 2013. While there are definitely some expected names making the elite round-up, there are others that are somewhat surprising, partly because they’re a far cry from those that made last year’s list, but also because we definitely didn’t anticipate them being that “big” in 2013. Despite what you and I think, however, these 5 brands raked in the most searches among Googlers in the United States. Here’s the complete list, according to the Zeitgeist.
1. Versace
2. Michael Kors
3. Diesel Black Gold
4. Gucci
5. Kate Spade
In honor of the Internet’s most popular fashion brands, we’ve rounded up five of our favorite looks from each. Take a look.
P.S. If Bing’s your weapon of choice, check out who topped their list of the most searched fashion designers here.
Taylor Swift in Kate Spade
There are a few things we know to be true about Taylor Swift: 1. She loves dating (famous) boys and writing songs about them. 2. She’s easily surprised. 3. She’s got a good thing going on with Kate Spade’s dresses.

We daydream of having an arm candy game made solely from Kate Spade bangles.

We might layer up a little more than this runway model, but we understand why she wants to draw all eyes to this fantastic trench coat.

Naomi Campbell's Comeback for Versace
After 14 years off the runway, Naomi Campbell walked in the Atelier Versace show in July. She looked as good as ever, but admitted to doing a 10-day juice cleanse prior to it. We hope she rewarded herself with a feast of food and Versace scarves.
