While women wearing hijabs are sometimes stereotyped as disempowered, there are many personal reasons women choose to wear them. In fact, they can even be a feminist statement.

The fashion industry has a history of neglecting Muslim women, but thanks to designers like Hasibuan, it's coming around.
