She’s the fashion icon we never knew we needed.

Through her daily White House briefings and media interviews since the outbreak of the viral disease was declared a national emergency, Birx has seemingly tied every one of her looks together with a stylish scarf.
Inspired, one superfan launched an Instagram account in late March to honor the 64-year-old physician’s accessory of choice – and it has since drawn a following of nearly 15,000 users.
Though Deborah Birx Scarves is not officially affiliated with or approved by Birx, account administrator Victoria Strout said the page is growing quite the loyal fan base.
“I’m getting a lot of people who are messaging me knowing it’s a fan account, simply to say they love her,” Strout, a marketing executive from Texas, told the New York Post in a Monday interview.
