Halima Aden broke multiple fashion-industry barriers for hijabi women. [fact]

Halima Aden was the first hijabi Muslim woman to grace the cover of an American women's beauty magazine (Allure), and she was also the first Miss Minnesota pageant contestant to compete in a hijab and burkini in November 2016. Since that time, she has gone on to walk in Kanye West's Yeezy, Season 5 show at New York Fashion Week, and also made history as the first hijab-wearing woman on the cover of Vogue magazine.
