LOCAL HEADS: SALIMA ALAOUI

“Perfection is found in imperfection” is a statement Salima Alaoui vibes to & no, we’re not referring to the spelling before the grammar police strikes again! We’re talking about her love for uneven stiches & odd art.

In today’s time of sustainability & everyone wanting something straight outta the shelf, her concept of upcycling inspired by her mother is what makes her stand out.

Salima combines her love for sneakers & designing to create a perfect outfit & describes freestyling as her style. She works around the shoe to create an outfit or she works the outfit with the shoe. With each thread and each step, she’s sure to make heads turn and we can see that in her feed.

Her passion for uneven layers & freestyling makes the Nike Air Max Pre-Day a perfect fit with its metallic silver and gold combination, giving it a modern look yet keeping the retro alive. This shoe will definitely turn heads with your outfit & sure is hella comfy!

@salima.oui hails from UAE with an Arab, Chinese & British heritage. Her feed reflects swagger & lots of drip. Follow her page for some straight up fire images!
