Jaime Xie, the Asian-American fashion Instagram influencer and tech billionaire heiress turning heads and counting clicks
From an equestrian upbringing to her current status as international fashion instaguru, at 22 she is the chic embodiment of young Asian glamour, taking inspiration from her Taiwanese roots and suit designer grandfather
Known for her luxe lifestyle and keen eye – and appetite – for high-end designer fashion labels, Jaime Xie has quickly cemented her spot as one of the freshest and coolest fashion influencers of the moment.
Boasting almost 200,000 followers on Instagram and over 47,000 subscribers on her YouTube channel, the 22-year-old American fashionista has amassed a substantial following of fans eager to catch a glimpse of her jet-setting, luxury-living ways.
From her horse-riding history to high fashion horizons
Before her rise to haute couture instafame, Xie enjoyed a successful stint as a competitive equestrian.
Xie fell in love with the sport at a young age, ultimately competing throughout her schooling career. Self-proclaimed competitive in nature, she even switched her schooling online to allow for more freedom to tour and compete.
She got it from her grandad
In a recent vlog on her YouTube channel, Xie described how she is the only member of her immediate family with such a strong affinity for all things fashion.
She explains how according to her mum, her passion for style and fashion was inherited from her maternal grandfather. He lived and worked in Taiwan as a men’s suit designer and was ostensibly just as fond of fashion, design and shopping as his future fashion-influencer granddaughter.
