MALAIKA
Since Earth Day 2016, Malaika New York has been redefining the fashion industry, exploring a zero waste philosophy. It’s not just a fashion brand, it encompasses MALAIKA’S Danish heritage with sustainability at the core. We aim to eliminate fashion’s harmful environmental effects by utilizing minimal or zero waste patterns, while maximizing wearability by producing luxe-quality, contemporary garments that make a statement now and into the future. Each garment is designed and handmade in New York with a deliberate, two-fold purpose; purpose for the wearer and purpose for the environment. To further integrate sustainability, MALAIKA uses up-cycled materials like plastics, bike tubes and regenerated fabrics, as well as offcuts. MALAIKA’S full range is produced locally in New York to maintain quality, to support the US garment industry and to reduce garment miles. For each item sold, a tree is planted for The Canopy Project.
