Haute Hijab Founder + Influencer
Melanie Elturk
Detroit native Melanie Elturk always thought she’d be a lawyer. But after starting her legal career at 23-years old, she quickly found her true passion in her hobby selling hijabs online for fellow Muslim friends and fans.
Today the business is based in New York City to support the demand for the booming brand that has cornered the market for beautiful headscarves. We sit down with the CEO and popular fashion influencer to talk through organically starting a business to finding funding and staying ahead of the uncertain retail curve.
