Marsal's work with PrettyLittleThing marks the first time the brand has featured a model wearing a hijab or headscarf, the UK-based company confirmed."I didn't realize how big of a deal it was until I started getting replies and messages from people who were so excited about it, then I realized, wow, this is amazing," Marsal told CNN.
"It's an insane feeling, Yes, I am Black, I am Muslim, I am plus size, but I never thought it would be me to make people feel like this." Marsal is new to the world of professional modeling, but is excited to represent young Muslim women and help them find fashionable clothes that uphold their religious values.
"As girls who wear the hijab, we grew up buying clothes and having to alter things to make them modest so for them now to tell Muslim girls, 'Guys, we're catering to you, too' is a very big deal," she said.on Monday that has since garnered more than 500,000 likes and 60,000 retweets."Soooo... that's me. THE FIRST HIJABI ON PLT!!! Still so wild to me," she said.
PrettyLittleThing, which has collaborated with celebrities like Kylie Jenner and Hailey Baldwin, sells fashion"inspired from the catwalk and the coolest muses of the moment" at affordable prices.

Haram.. You suppose to be covered head to toe and serving tea to your prince 🤴
Ma sha Allah
HUGE if true
OMG
Is she vegan?
Is she also land to be “tilled”?🙄
everyone to their own taste
Clothes dont make you holy.Judging people based on what they wear is discrimination!Put God First!
Well done
But this is not modesty 😔
Has she gotten any death threats from Islamic Jihad groups?
When a model is hot, she doesn’t get a CNN response.
They know she’ll make waves for the junk in the trunk?
Muslim female modeling modest line of clothes?
Ok.
Their is a slave trade happening in America and europe, and this is what they feel the need to write
Modest clothing is misogynist clothing.
billy_marsal ❤️
Modest clothing If this middle eastern 'couture' becomes a trend in the americas, we are truly doomed...
No thanks. Muslins no. Next
Are muzlim really human? Ever they speak zender equality? Ever they fight for peace and non violence Ever they fight for right of other religion followers. Ever they stand up for protection of sculpture of other religion and culture. No..never They are not human at all.
People like Billie Eilish are considered a fashion icon for choosing to wear clothes that cover her body in order to avoid sexualizing it, I understand origin of wearing a hijab comes from complex religious morals but why not approach it with the same understanding
PreyttyFatBag
Disgusting
Good for her, but I don’t know why is this relevant...
Never too late
Beautiful 😍
I See a slave and I am surprised that CNN is showing off and promote a women slavery sign like a Jihab. No wonder you have that reputation. Greetings Berlin, Western Europe.
If you do not want to die from COVID-19, you should lose weight rather than wearing masks!
Basically, Muslim Lizzo. Next...
Obesity increases death rate of COVID-19. Plus size models are stupid idea. Do you want die?
Who cares for God sakes. People can wear what they want !
Funny how today feminism (and journalism) take a symbol of opression and full submission and shows as a 'breaking barriers' thing. Sad.
this is so fucked up. A tool of oppression becomes a fashion.
Breaking ground would be in a bikini. You all are fools to consider this groundbreaking. Also rude to say a plus size model is groundbreaking
Sorry I can't agree with this. It's not healthy to have over weight and also is not healthy to be too skinny. I disagree with this promotion showing like this is normal and healthy. I’m not talking about beauty, every person is beautiful, but show this like healthy people .....
Braking chairs as well
It's not modest clothing since we can see shapes of her body. Since she shows her shapes, why does she wear a hijab? Rhetoric question. It's only to promote hijab. Because when you accept to wear hijab, you reach the next level: wearing this kind of clothing, and nothing else:
Pretty “Little” Things getting a Larger Muslim woman to model modesty Clothing. The Irony 😂 Not sure what to say about “little things” it’s self explanatory Islamist modesty means to screen a woman’s curves and beauty features from others to see. Modelling means the opposite
so
Totally unattractive, this PC shit has gone too far. Nobody wants to see this. Ever
It would be more important to address the obesity and morbid obesity crisis and its accompanied comorbidities.
Awesome!
Omg not my taste
Watch; they will be beheaded😎🤡😈
Yall really are just ticking boxes out here
Love!!!
As long as you make us believe this is normal, girls and women who do not want this continue to be abused and killed. On your watch and with your tacit consent. YasMohammedxx
The fact that American women don't push back against symbols of misogyny, hate and anti-LGBTQ is ... ...actually par for the course for leftists who desire the big boot of government on their necks. That's why the left continues to vote for commies, sharia and self-hating dbs.
WTF, CNN. You think that 'modesty culture' isn't damaging to women? You don't realize that the hijab is a symbol of misogyny?
More of you to love...
Ha ha ha ha
CNN spread more love. Always talking about race.
Muslim, I like to have sex with him🤗
misogynist clothing*
She doesn't have well sound religion education
“Plus Size” is definitely being modest!
Plus size. wtf?
LicoriceMedusa Horribly discriminatory! This promotes and centres hourglass-body-ism, the male gaze, and Orientalism. We will not have broken the chains of oppression until the West celebrates a 400lb female in a black burka as a beauty ideal. Fight the power. PeakWoke
Wow, she should run for then miss USDA competition next. Intersectional nonsense.../
Ma Shaa Allah
There is 10 times increase upon every investment made with us under the period of inbalance with bitcoin, What this implies is that you can make as much as $10k in a week with as low as $1k Too Good to be True Right?.send a Dm for more info
She is super cute! Love it. ❤️
🤢🤮
Trendy
And this is news because...?
With Carmel toes popping. That doesn't rhyme with hijab
WokeSupremacy
No, no es la primera.
But muhammad would've been so over protective over his modern ladies.
The outfit on the left is nice. The one on the right, not so much.
Breaking something.
This woman needs to stop eating like the pig she is. It is not healthy to pack on the tons and say it's ok. Cancer, heart attacks, diabetes, etc.
billy_marsal 🔥🔥
it's their company, their choice.
The clothes are not suitable for her because she is fat. These clothes fit a slim, slim girl
Can’t really keep that company name anymore, can they?
Definitely Breaking stuff
I used to say I welcome our future Muslim overlords but not if it’s going to be plus sized black women.
She looks like she eats gallon-sized tubs of butter, with a spoon!
'A Black, Muslim plus-size model'...... YOU FORGOT TO MENTION IF SHE IS 'GAY OR LESBIAN' AND IF SHE CONSIDERS HERSELF TO BE NEUTRAL GENDERED.
Stop normalizing a totalitarian ideology disguised as a religion.
How exactly does one become a spokesperson for the modest clothing movement? I want on that bandwagon.
in USA terms she is just normal, everyone is a fat bastard
Tbh..i think they just chose her cause she has an hourglass which is the new 'body' rn. So it appeals to the viewer. I dont see who has a circle body or triangle.Proud of her but i dont think its a barrier broken till you have an ACTUAL plus sized model. Like peter griffin size
I see a human being.
You go girl 👍
🙄🙄🙄🙄 we all know why she got hired for ffs!! It’s because she’s black and a Muslim !!!
The hijab is a symbol of oppression
PrettyLittleThing... do you think they might be indulging in some irony behind closed doors here.
She is looking beautiful in this clothing.
How about gym
