Model Halima Aden quits fashion shows over religious beliefs – The Guardian
Aden, one of the first models to wear a hijab, says she is being forced to compromise beliefs
The model Halima Aden has said she is quitting runway shows because working in fashion has forced her to compromise her religious beliefs.
Aden, who was hailed as a trailblazer for being one of the first models to wear a hijab and walk for major fashion labels including Kanye Wests Yeezy, posted a series of images on social media that illustrated the times she had lost touch with who she is (from missing prayer times to being draped with pairs of jeans for a head covering).
I can only blame myself…
