Early life and background

Attique has said she started working at around 16 or 17 because she wanted financial independence. She has also said she has taught tuition classes. [1]

Education

Attique enrolled in a degree in IR and Politics. She was also studying medicine, a course she left. She had cleared the first two years of her medical studies but not the third, and she left in the third year. She has said she had to repeat a year that was emotionally draining, and she could not do it. [1]

Career

Attique has said she made a profile public and got a lot of traction. She has said she finds her work fun. She has said she is diversifying within her main category of fashion, and that she is willing to discuss politics as well as fashion. She has said she wants to come across as an intellectual and does not post funny videos. [1]

Attique has said she very much wants to make YouTube videos. She has said she is also active on TikTok, and that she can tell which videos would suit TikTok and which would suit Instagram. [1]

Attique has said that when a camera was wanted, she said they would not ask for money and would generate it from their business. She has said that they have a team that includes managers, people who assist, videographers and photographers. She has said she will not put a frame, though sometimes she has to because she has a business to sustain, and that she was happy to put a frame on her own terms and conditions. [1]

Attique has said that she and another person were both nominated for PISA. She has said the PISA trip was fully paid for, with everything covered. She has said that when she and others went to meet the Prime Minister, it caused a big uproar. She was one of three women in a room that was mostly men. [1]

Views

Attique has said Instagram is becoming too commercial and too monotonous, and that she expects it to fade away, as Facebook has. She has said Gen Z's attention span is about three seconds. She has said her Explore page is different and shows many new people coming up who are doing really good stuff. [1]

Attique has said there is still no creative freedom, because brands come and specify everything from A to Z and tell her what to make. She has said it is now understood that being an influencer is a real job, and people now ask upfront how much she will charge for something, which makes her happy. She has said that tools are not given to them where she lives, or the government bans the tools. She has said Pakistanis and Muslim countries are kept far from the fashion world. [1]

Attique has said a business should reinvest its profits, or there is no benefit. She has said success from hard work cannot come overnight, and that people who take shortcuts do not last. She has said that if corruption ended, she thinks they could be very good at whatever they do, and that corruption exists at every level. [1]

Attique has said that rules cannot be made properly unless a woman is sitting there. She has said people take men more seriously than women when they speak. She has said male influencers are paid more than women for the same campaign, even with fewer followers. [1]

Attique has said the hate did not particularly come to her but to her sister. She has said much of the hate she receives, particularly on Twitter, comes from an audience that should have been celebrating her. She has said people have labelled her rude for refusing things, and that she has set rules for herself and keeps to them regardless of criticism. [1]

Attique has said her goal has stayed the same for two or three years. She has said she sees herself doing the same work in a better way. She has said she has always dreamt of doing something big and has not yet reached that aim. She has said she wants to give children hope but feels she is in a hopeless situation. [1]

Personal life

Attique has said she loves travelling and has always wanted to see the whole world. She has said she travels alone and does everything on her own, and that she carries a taser when she goes out. She has said being away from home for more than ten days would not be good for her, and that she wants to stay in Pakistan and not move abroad. She has said she cannot dance. [1]

Attique has said she is satisfied and grateful, and that life is less amazing in reality than it looks on Instagram, but still amazing. She has said she is very open about her journey. [1]
