Halima Aden is not your ordinary model; she is the first model ever to cat-walk on the runway sporting a hijab, a first in the world of modelling notorious for its highly revealing ensembles.
While scores of models walk on the runway in sexy bikinis, Ms Aden opted to saunter on the runway wearing the Islamic dress as a way of affirming his faith.
There were attempts to convince him to model in anything else other than the Hijab but she adamantly rejected such entreaties.
Halima Aden story is as inspiring as it gets.
She was not born with a silver spoon in her mouth but in the most humbling of backgrounds; a Kenyan refugee camp in September 1997.
At the age of six, destiny smiled at her and she moved to the Unite States, 'the land of opportunity.'
She shot to prominence in 2016 when she participated in the Minnesota pageant, rocking a hijab and triggered a lot of chatter in modelling and fashion circles.
There was no doubt that she was a lock for stardom.
Multi-million deals with fashion and modelling labels such as IMG Models that were all too happy to bring her on board started coming through.
She has also posed for a staggering number of lifestyle magazines including Vogue Magazine one of the world's highest-grossing fashion magazine.
