Madeline Stuart

Madeline Stuart is given credit for making history in the world of modeling. She is the first, and hopefully not the last, model with Down’s syndrome. When she was still young, it had always been her dream to be on the runway and in advertisements. Her mother was very supportive and encouraged her to pursue her passion. Initially, Stuart was not that confident due to her condition and the way she looked, but she got past that and went on to lose about 40 pounds.

With grit and determination, she was able to become a model. She first opened an Instagram account, which now has over 352,000 followers. This goes to show that she is well-liked by many people. She also has been using her influence and the social media platform to promote inclusiveness and diversity in the modeling world. Of course, we give kudos to this determined woman!
