Madeline Stuart

Madeline Stuart is recognized not because of her beauty but because she has broken boundaries. The model is a popular face on the runway despite having Down Syndrome. She has represented different brands at various fashion events in New York, Paris, London, Dubai, Russia, and China, among others. She takes credit for being the first professional model diagnosed with the said disease in the world.

She had dreamt of becoming a model since she was a child. After coming home from a fashion show in Brisbane, Stuart shed 44 pounds and posed in front of the camera. In 2015, she began her professional career with the help of her mother, who made waves in social media. She eventually became the face of Manifesta and EverMaya.
