Love Island UK: Who’s making the most money?

She was the new face of Oh Polly, a fast-growing online fashion brand that she wore over 30 times during her time in the villa.

The oh Polly deal unfortunately came to an abrupt end earlier this year.

Ekin-Su has said that she chose to work with Oh Polly because it aligned with her values of sustainability, although the brand has been rated as “we avoid” by Good on You, a website that evaluates brands based on their ethical and environmental practices¹. Ekin-Su has also launched her own clothing line called Ekin-Su Official, which features dresses, tops, skirts and accessories inspired by her style³. She is estimated to be worth £1.6 million in such a short amount of time³.
