PETALING JAYA, May 15 — Actress, TV host and entrepreneur Neelofa is the first hijabi to front the Raya campaign of jewellery brand Swarovski in Malaysia.

Shot in Abu Dhabi’s stunning Al Wadi Desert, Neelofa, whose full name is Noor Neelofa Mohd Noor is seen wearing a variety of designs from the popular Austrian accessories brand’s Raya Selection collection.

“Syawal is the month that I dedicate my time and emphasise on the values and ways I could contribute to our society. My aspiration is to be a giver, rather than a receiver.
