A young model with Down Syndrome has something very special that makes her stand out from other models.

She has been featured in the NY Times, Cosmopolitan, and Vogue, has millions of followers. She has become a huge inspiration for thousands of people.

When she dreamed to become a model, she did everything she could to reach her goals. Even Down Syndrome didn’t stop her.

Madeline Stuart from Australia knew she wanted to become a model when her mother took her to a fashion show in 2014. She said at that time, “Mom, me model.”

Her mom, Rosanne, knew there would be many challenges as thousands of girls also want to be on the runway. But like every parent, she wanted to make her daughter happy.

To reach her goals, Madeline lost some weight. Becoming a professional model helped her change her lifestyle and her transformation is incredible.

It also didn’t take long for her to become a star as she was a natural.

Madeline first appeared on the runway in 2015 and she became the world’s first supermodel with Down Syndrome. Forbes Magazine also named her ‘#1 Game Changer.’

She has walked in the past six seasons of New York Fashion Week, London Fashion Week, and Paris Fashion Week. Madeline is currently doing 18 shows per season.

“She doesn’t need to prepare. She is just ready,” her mom expressed.

Madeline became a big inspiration to thousands of people not only in Australia but also around the world. Her mother said: “Just because you have a disability doesn’t mean you can’t achieve your dreams.”

Madeline’s health still gives her difficulties. Last year, she had to stay in the hospital and underwent surgery. But she is now back to conquer the stage.

“When you are climbing that ladder to success, you still have a few glass ceilings to break through,” Madeline said.
