Malaika Hamid is a Canadian–Pakistani fashion and textile designer whose work interconnects storytelling, identity entanglement, and emotional depths. As she tries to bridge her two polarizing identities through her creations and designs.

Haus of Angel is her creative baby, a brand where she experiments with haute couture as a mouthpiece to narrate personal stories and the complexities of human feelings. For Malaika, the act of dressing becomes archival, the body transforms into a living repository where fabric and form act as vessels of memory and transformation.

Her collection The Carcass of Love intertwines deadstock lace, intricately beaded corsetry, and sculptural leatherwork to present a visceral dissection of love and heartbreak in their darkest, most consuming forms. Through this exploration, she confronts the unsettling yet compelling beauty that can emerge from emotional ruin, leaving the audience with the haunting reflection that beauty is often most profound in the darkest of places.

Malaika Hamid continues to expand Haus of Angel, developing her next collection; an exploration of the rotting heart as effigy,  rendered through more lace and finer artisanal techniques.
