The "Sports Illustrated" Swimsuit Issue second-timer also shares her proven at-home DIY facial recipe.Author:Fawnia Soo HooPublish date:Jul 30, 2020Last year, Halima Aden made history as the first model to wear a hijab in the 56th edition of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue. For her sophomore effort, Aden jetted to the beaches of the Dominican Republic for a gorgeous feature shot by photographer Kate Powers.
Aden says she was presented with over 40 burkini options for fittings to whittle down, to represent "different senses for different moods." The final edit offers "classy and elegant" examples of modest swimwear, accessorized with beautiful head-pieces, ranging from styles to wear for lounging "on a boat with your family" to "more athletic, more functional, but still very beautiful" options for water-side activities.
The release of the Swimsuit Issue edition, under Sports Illustrated's new ownership by Authentic Brands Group, brings a welcome opportunity to revisit fond memories in a time of crisis. Aden has been keeping busy in quarantine: She recently worked with Allure and Anywear to create chic and sustainable hijab and mask sets, made out of sustainable organic bamboo materials, for frontline workers.
"I recently redid my closet: Out with the old, in with the new. I was a little lazy, I will admit, because I still had a bunch of winter stuff in my closet and I was like, 'Oh boy, it's going to be really warm here in Minnesota for at least the next couple months.' So just taking away all the winter clothes and filling up my closet with more spring/summer.
"I definitely like making my own face scrubs and doing my own at-home, mix-it-yourself facials. I'll share a recipe: I always cut an aloe vera plant into small chunks or little cubes. Leaving the gel in can be kind of a slimy ordeal, but it's so worth it. Then I'll put the chunks in the fridge, and the first thing I do when I wake up is take out that aloe vera — all-natural, no chemicals — and de-puff.
"I recently got a new pair of white Yeezy Boost 350s that are really cute, and purses. I just got this new Tory Burch Lee Radziwell croc-embossed top-handle bag and it is stunning. My new staple. Sometimes, even in Minnesota, I'll wear them just walking around. I'll go grocery store and I always get a compliment and people are like, 'Oh my gosh, I love your shoes' or 'I love your purse.' Just little staples.
