Fashion influencer Aaliyah Jay was bullied at a young age, but that gave her the confidence to become successful in her own right. Aaliyah Jay said this: “It really shaped me to be in my own lane and to not look for the acceptance of others. It also motivated me to be successful.”
Over the past five years her brand grew. She now has 4 million followers across her social media platforms. Aaliyah creates fashion, beauty, travel and lifestyle content that she hopes will inspire others to be their authentic selves. Nicki Minaj and Cardi B are now following her on her Instagram account. Long gone are the days of not feeling accepted.
Originally from Boston and now living in New York, Aaliyah Jay is now venturing into the next step of her career, one as an emerging media personality and fashion designer. She will be relaunching her unique clothing line Twisted Saints out Q1 2022, in addition to growing her already large platforms and expanding her media profile.
“In 5 years, I see myself with a full fashion brand that is in stores and at NY fashion week. In 10 years, I see myself having my brand live on without me having to post and it being successful. I see myself pregnant or with very small children and married, living a mommy life with successful brands under my belt.”
While the line is geared towards women, the Twisted Saints line is inclusive for all genders and non binary individuals.
