Hijab-clad woman walks ramp in New York

New York: Hijab-wearing model Halima Aden made her Milan debut during Alberta Ferretti’s show which also saw fashion sisters Gigi and Bella Hadid on the runway.

Clad in a navy-and-black striped belted coat with flared pants styled underneath, the 19-year-old Somali-American walked the runway like a pro, reported New York Post.

Aden recently signed with the IMG agency and walked the runway at Kanye West’s Yeezy Season 5 show during New York Fashion Week earlier this month.

Ferretti’s fashion show comes a day after the model made her fashion magazine cover debut for CR Fashion Book. She discussed the importance of wearing her hijab on the cover.
