⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Even better than the pictures and super comfortable
I love my new cardigan! I’ve been looking for a nice drapey / long one for some time and after thinking about it for a few months, I finally went for it.
I’m so glad I did - it looks even better in real life that the pictures, fits really well and is comfortable - warm without being scratchy. If you’re hesitating I’d say go for it! You won’t regret it - I wear it a LOT. :)

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Elevated Style
The boat neck t-shirt takes the basic t-shirt to a new elevated style. Malaika is truly talented and you will not be disappointed with anything you buy from her.
Jennifer, Hackers Island, NC
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Feel like a Million Bucks!
I happened upon Malaika by chance, wanting to be a more ethical consumer. Being my first experience, I chose to purchase the Medium Mystery Box! I ended up receiving the most amazing asymmetrical shirt and leggings!! They feel AMAZING - and I, for the first time in quite a while, felt like I looked beautiful! To also know that these products are respectful of the environment and the employees who create them was even better! Thank you!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ It's simply perfect
I wore this dress for an elevated casual company event and I received compliment after compliment. The fabric is soft, the fit is loose but not baggy and the pockets are genius. I felt comfortable yet chic. I own several shirts and a three dresses from Malaika and they are all simply the best. Oh top of that Malaika offers outstanding customer service.
Cool og lækker vest, som er så behagelig at have på. Den er unik i designet og skønne detaljer og brugsværdi tænkt ind i den… og så er Malaika så medlevende i både designet og med hjælp, hvis der er brug for det :)
I love the t-shirts by Malaika. I have both asymmetrical and hexagon and love wearing them both. They are made of the most amazing material and have a fantastic shape that makes you feel comfortable and chic at the same time. Love it👌

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Asymmetric dress
Love it - the lightweight fabric makes it so comfortable to wear. Fits perfectly and forgiving of those areas of my body which I’m insecure about.
I LOVE this dress. It is so versatile! You can dress it up or down. The neck line is very flattering and the fit as well. It's nice to have a go to dress that covers some of those insecurities (mom of 3 over here if you know what I mean :)) and feel sexy in it. It looks like a simple design, which I was attracted to, but when on, you'll see that it's more than that. The fabric is soft and holds well in the wash. I received many many compliments. Also, customer service wonderful!!! Shipping was no issue and came sooner than I thought. GREAT dress, GREAT company. Highly recommend it.
I'm wearing my white hexagon t-shirt for the first time today and I've already had a compliment on it. It looks cool, drapes really well and it's really comfortable and super soft. What's not to love? I hope to be wearing it for many years :)
The asymmetrical t-shirt is the perfect combination of comfort and style!
I love the fact that the fabrics are very solid (meaning non transparent), so comfortable and adaptable to the body, and that even if there are no body lines in the pattern, it falls fantastically on the body.
It's really a versatile item, ideal for every occasion:) and the feeling of soft cotton is a pleasure for the skin.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Lovely fit, comfortable and pockets super convenient
I love this dress - I’m pretty curvy and it flatters, unlike most universally sized dresses I’ve tried before.
The pockets are super convenient and I really like the neck which is again very flattering. It’s wide too so you can wear the dress to the side etc.
The material is really soft, it was so comfortable to wear all day and night.
This was my first purchase from Malaika and I would definitely buy again.
Olivia, United Kingdom
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The best LBD ever
LOVE IT. Super soft fabric, clever tailoring and very flattering.
Margo D, Exton, PA, United States
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Love this dress
I love the Jutland dress. I was a little hesitant to order but I am so glad I did. The one size fit is very versatile and the style is great. The designer is so friendly. I would love to order more
Lindsay, Salt Lake City, UT
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Tube Silver leggings
Love Malaika! Her designs are phenomenal. Anything you buy from her will not disappoint.
Bex, Australia
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Hex Tee
Flattering, functional and sustainable. Once again, simple and elegant - the draping is masterful for which I am truly grateful.
Margo, Exton, PA

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ One thing I can count on!
It's only Monday, but this week has started out like last week! Frustration with people who don't do what they say they are going to do, poor customer service, and grouchy people everywhere! But today, I wore my Hex Tee, and it's the one thing I can count on.... always comfortable and cozy, beautifully crafted, and it makes me smile to know it's good for the environment and supports women entrepreneurs. Thanks, Malaika, for a bright spot in an otherwise insufferable day! I'll probably need to buy this in more colors if I have any more weeks like this!
If you’re thinking about getting this dress, then get it! Not only is it stylish and edgy, but it’s so comfortable! Regardless of your body shape it will look amazing. I also love the fact that Malaika is zero waste and sustainably focused. I’ll be enjoying my dress for many years to come!
It is a super comfortable dress, you can style it in so many ways, and it always ends up looking most flattering!
This is more of a sweater than a poncho, but no matter what you call it, this piece is absolutely lovely. It's soft, warm, elegant, comfortable, and well-made. It's not itchy in the slightest and I love the way that it cascades down the back. I wore it to a memorial service and felt cozy and elegant and comforted all at once.
I have had my eye on this dress for a long, long time, and as luck would have it, it showed up in my Mystery Box from Malaika yesterday. It's over 100 degrees in the Midwest this week, so I immediately tried on this comfortable dress and took an air-conditioned nap. The fabric is amazing. It's black, but there's nothing hot about it, and the feel of the organic cotton against skin is almost like nothing at all. The proof is in the fact that when I woke up, there were two cats asleep on me, and they did NOT want to move! In spite of the nap within a nap, I stood up without wrinkles in my dress, and the evidence of "catnaps" brushed off easily. I love this dress. It can go from work to shopping to walk to nap and back again. And don't let the tire embellishments scare you away. They are soft, stylish, and edgy. Love this dress.
How is that even possible?! I feel super elegant yet casual; sexy without trying to hard, and comfy as hell. Can’t wait to buy it in many many colors ;-)

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Get your Mystery Box
This Box is 🤩 amazing, my box contained fantastic and most flattering items and a personal message from Malaika. If you haven't ordered yours yet, do it! You get such an awesome selection of top products at an incredible price. I highly recommend it to everyone 🥰

So glad to have found this top. I love the colour and think it's perfect for days when I want to appear avant-garde. I will eventually be looking to order in another colour too!
I love love love these leggings. They are edgy, sustainable and cruelty free. I was a bit worried when I first received them as I couldn’t pull them up past my hips without the material making cracking sounds. I wrote to Malaika who promptly replied that they are made to stretch. So I tried again and they fit like a glove and are very flattering! I highly recommend these leggings.
I’m obsessed with this dress! I love the concept behind zero waste design, but the drape and fit of this piece is next level! The fabric hits and hangs in all the right places. It’s extremely comfortable and versatile. I love how I can dress it up and down.
I had been eyeing this dress for a while and decided to impulse buy it the other day. Now that I have it I'm upset I didn't buy it earlier! It's an incredible dress that not only feels comfortable, but also looks amazing. I get nothing but compliments every time I wear it. If you're looking for a comfortable dress that can be dressed up or down then look no further. This dress deserves all 5 stars!
Amo, Miami, FL
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The softest vest ever It is so glamorous but comfortable at the time that you can look fancy all day without need to get home to rest! So soft that you want to wear it all day. You can use it in different ways. It’s unique and beautiful
Gwen, Atlanta
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A FAV NYC Sustainable Designer
Malaika is a fantastic zero waste designer & clothing maker. I have the Zero Vest Green, which is reversible, airy, and sharp! She has great sales and her eye for comfortable fashion is European yet city chic. I love it.. looking forward to adding more to my closet.
Bex, Australia
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Impressive
I am looking forward to wearing this. I am looking forward to wearing this to a social event and impressing with elegant simplicity. The cut is superb, with a daring dash of flesh under the arm to emphasise the modest silhouette and drapery that hides a multitude of middle aged sins.
Service was impeccable and I look forward to ordering more in the future.
J.D, Brooklyn, NY

Rachel, Beaverton, OR
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Well made and versatile
The Square Jacket can be worn multiple ways and I'm looking forward to having it on cooler days this fall and winter. Great for the office. A bit scratchy, so I'll wear long sleeves. I recommend it.
Marianne Erickson, Saint Louis, MO
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I was skeptical until I got my box!
I couldn't decide what to order, but I wanted SOMETHING because I am so in love with the concept of this group of artisans. I ordered the Mystery Box, thinking there will be at least one thing I can wear.... and if I get the knitted cuff, I can always give it away. As it turns out, I *LOVE* the knitted cuff, and the earrings made from plastic bags are light, airy, and elegant. The clothing items (I got a skirt and a dress) are simple and elegant, versatile and sustainable. This is SUCH a great way to join the Malaika family. For a ridiculously low price, you can get an idea of the form, fit, and quality of the things available from Malaika, and they will leave you wanting more. Try one! You'll love the fun selection!
Leandra Jordan, West Roxbury, MA
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Even Better Than I Thought!
Mailaika helped me fit the right size in a gorgeous angular vest. I can't believe the craftsmanship and attention to detail on the two pieces I purchased. They’re so well done and fit and hang in the most flattering way.
The Hexagon T is the coolest and it makes a casual look go in a different trajectory! She is an amazing designer plus she’s helping our earth with sustainability. I am a huge fan of her design concepts and the caring person that obviously is.
Catherine Schuller, New York, NY
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️The Best Vest
I love my vest and how versatile it is. So edgey and fashion forward and the cobalt blue is divine. Had to wait a bit but once it came I put it on ASAP - love her gorgeous styling and she made it in my size!!
Emily, Washington, DC
There are not enough good things to say about this shirt. I was hooked on it the first time I wore it, and now I have invested in 3 so that I can wear them all the time and never run out! It has a very polished look and nice stretch. The asymmetrical collar gives it a great edge. It is a pure black which matches perfectly with Malaika leggings, though I will also pair it with other black pants or short shorts in the summer time. This shirt is a classic - you can't go wrong. For reference I am 5'10" and slim. The small fit well in width but I prefer it a bit longer, so I wear a medium for length.
Karla Sanchez, Dallas, TX
Loved my leggings! High quality and the shipping was fast.
Melissa Fernandez, East Windsor, NJ
One silhouette but so many wears!
I love that you can dress this up and dress it down, make it super chic and super casual. I’ve been able to wear it all seasons too!
In the summer with a pair of trainers or flip flops for a relaxed look or with a jean jacket & wedges for a chic brunch!
You can also wear it with leggings and boots! But if you want to get fancy, you can make it even more asymmetrical by rolling one sleeve up adding a belt and putting on your favorite pumps! Like I said, it’s one silhouette but I’ve been able to get loads of outfits from it! I purchased this in red but 100% will be getting the black too!
Emily, Washington, DC
I just got this new poncho and I absolutely love it. The fabric is super soft and warm, and the higher neck kept me warm on a cold day. I'm so proud to have a sustainable wardrobe, plus this made is from recycled plastic bottles! As always the construction is impeccable. The silver coated pocket gives it a sleek look and is great for keeping hands warm, plus my phone when I was on the move. I paired with black work pants and black boots and wore to work. I love how all of Malaika's pieces go together, so I can't wait to pair this with her leggings and my new silver mask the next time I venture out aside from work. One of my new favorites!
Christina, Hermosa Beach, LA
LOVE LOVE LOVE everything about this brand and MALAIKA. Her rare pieces (which makes you feel special and like a million bucks) made with eco friendly materials while caring for our precious planet.
I will without a doubt give you double the stars - Malaika you are absolutely amazing.
Chuck George, Cleveland, Oh
The dress fit is perfect and it’s absolutely a unique memorable dress.
