As of Tuesday, Swift's website was no longer selling apparel with the words "The Folklore Album," swapping it out for new designs that read, "Folklore Album," InStyle reported.

Rasool called the design change "a great first step" and said her and Swift's teams were discussing the situation.

"I commend Taylor's team for recognizing the damage the merchandise caused to my company @TheFolklore's brand," she wrote on Tuesday.

"I recognize that she has been a strong advocate for women protecting their creative rights, so it was good to see her team is on the same page."

CNN has reached out to Rasool and Swift's publicist for comment, but has not heard back.

On Thursday, Swift announced that she was donating to Rasool's company.

"Amira, I admire the work you're doing and I'm happy to make a contribution to your company and to support the Black in Fashion Council (launching on 8/3) with a donation," she wrote in response to Rasool's tweet.
