Where To Next

Despite a seemingly relentless number of setbacks, in 2019 the future for women has never looked so bright. To celebrate this, we turned to two pioneering voices pushing forward the conversation about activism and fashion. Somali-American model Halima Aden is breaking boundaries on a near-weekly basis at the tender age of 21, and 78-year-old Robin Morgan, the prolific writer and activist (a contemporary of Gloria Steinem’s), is having an unexpected fashion renaissance courtesy of Christian Dior. Here, they share their stories.

I went from being the first hijabi model to creating a line of turbans and hijabs, which was exciting. Then my Sport’s Illustrated shoot landed.
