"This cover means the world to me and for me to represent my community, it is such a humbling experience for me," Norman told People magazine.

"Diversity has always been the DNA of Harper's Bazaar. The Indian edition is delighted to follow in such illustrious footsteps with this Instagram-only initiative," Nonita Kalra, editor, Harper's Bazaar India told BuzzFeed.

“Showcasing white woman after white woman on covers does not work anymore, we need to show the women of the world that is of now. The world is changing and with this story we want to be a part of that global revolution," Sollinger told People magazine.

The series will be up on Harper's Bazaar India's Instagram.
