In another step towards being more inclusive, high street e-tailer PrettyLittleThing has recruited its very first hijabi model.
Say hello to Billy Marsal.
The 21-year-old Black Muslim from London has become the face of PLT’s new line of modest clothing.
With the UK-based brand recently having launched in the MENA region, it’s a refreshing step to see retailers taking.
Sharing her excitement about working with PLT, Marsal took to Instagram last week to post about the news.
“How unreal that’s me you guys,” she said in disbelief. “FIRST HIJABI ON PLT!!!!!! Literally crazy.”
PrettyLittleThing themselves also shared their joy about being more inclusive, particularly on their latest modest line.
“Following our successful launch into the Middle East we are delighted to be launching our ‘Modest clothing’ collection on [the] site,” the brand said.
“Our ethos of ‘EveryBODYinPLT is extremely important to us, so it’s been amazing seeing such positive customer feedback and working with models who represent all of our customer base.”
