A Somali model has become the first woman ever to grace the cover of Amercian beauty magazine Allure, while wearing a hijab.
Halima Aden, who is only 19-years-old, is pictured wearing Nike’s high-performance hijab on the cover of the July issue of the women’s magazine, with a caption that says “This is American Beauty”.
Aden has long been working to busy stereotypes of Muslim women in the media, having appeared in the bikini round of the 2016 Miss Minnesota USA beauty pageant while wearing a burkini and hijab.
