Meet the African women taking over the global entertainment industry in 2019

Somali models Halima Aden, Amina Adan and Ikram Abdi Omar

It is no new feet for breathtakingly beautiful young ladies from Africa to find their breakthrough and become global sensations in the fashion and modeling industry but what sets these three models from Somalia apart is the groundbreaking footprints they are leaving everywhere they go. Just recently, Halima Aden, Amina Adan and Ikram Abdi Omar made history as they graced the cover of Vogue Arabia in the first ever hijabi cover. They are the first official hijabi models in the world and have walked several runways feeling proud and comfortable in their hijab while proving that beauty is diverse and can be appreciated no matter what religion one is from or what one decides to or not to wear.
