22
pieces, she posted them anyway and
sure enough, 90% of her followers fell
in love with her sense of style. When
asked what her inspiration was she said,
“Everything inspires me...I look at other
people in the same industry, see what
they’re up to,
and [wonder]
how I can do
better than
them.”
Knowing
that her
“bright and
tight” outfits
were too
much for her
city as she felt that Toronto’s style was
earthier than desired, Lue took a leap
of faith and moved to Miami, Florida.
Ironically enough, the theme of her
latest collection is Miami: fun, crazy
and wild - it seems fitting. The hard
work, dedication, and stick-to-itiveness
seen in her growing collection paid off
as her attire caught the eyes of many
people all over the world including
reality TV show stars as well as actors
who she later created outfits for. To
keep up with demand, Lue says, “is a
lot of work; but it is a work in progress.”
Malaika Lue is currently working on
opening up a boutique in South Beach,
Miami then later gracing major cities
within the United States with more
boutiques. Malaika Lue encourages the
up and coming designers and those
pursuing their dreams to never give up
and don’t be a quitter, “When things
get tough, you keep going. Don’t be
afraid because [once upon a time] that
was me.”

Now at the
age of 22,
and with
one year of
experience
under her
belt, Lue
has proven
herself to
be more
than just the average young fashion
designer. She has created a collection
that not only represents her party girl
persona of being edgy, chic, and extra,
but her pieces allow her clientele to
feel the same way.
