Cynthia Rowley made Halima Aden a custom Burkini

This is the Miami Swim Week, the annual showcase of the best beachwear of the season, and the models parading on the catwalks in bikinis, one-shirts and all the rest. But for the model Halima Aden, who remains firm in her Muslim religion, it was important not to withdraw from the event but to make a statement. Aden opened the Sports Illustrated Sports Sports Illustrated 2019 Swimsuit in a floral burkini designed by Cynthia Rowley and marked "Do not Change, Change the Game" on the sleeves. "Halima is a true role model and I feel very fortunate to be able to help spread her message and encourage women around the world to live with a sense of adventure," Rowley said.

"Halima is a true role model and I feel very lucky to be able to help spread her message and encourage women around the world to live with a sense of adventure."

Aden has partnered with Rowley to design this piece with the goal of continuing the conversation on women's empowerment. This is not the first collaboration of the duo – earlier this year, Aden became the first model to cover Sports Illustrated in a burkini also designed by Rowley.
