Meet Maks, American Apparel's new Bengali Muslim model

Maks, a year-old retail strategist for American Apparel, says that she was 'fully comfortable' during the photo shoot that led to this 'Made in Bangladesh' advertisement. Maks, who poses in only a pair of American Apparel high-waist jeans continued: I love and embrace all cultures and religions. I am choosing to be creative and expressing myself freely. Born in Dhaka, Maks immigrated to California with her family when she was four years old.
