Imaan Hammam is a Dutch fashion model. She has appeared on the cover of Vogue more than a dozen times.
Imaan is the daughter of Mbarka Belouta and Abdelhamid Hammam. She has stated:
My mom is from Morocco-from the South, where people are much darker, and have [textured] hair, and my father is from Egypt. He doesn’t have any hair lately, but in his younger years, he had a big Afro.
She has also said:
Sometimes people call me Middle Eastern, and I’m like, ‘No, I’m black.’ I am proud of my culture, proud of who made me, proud to be here.
