21-year-old Brisbane-based supermodel, continues her mission to change society’s perception of people with disabilities by making another phenomenal catwalk appearance in ‘Vanity Fair’ collection by Norish Kareem Couture at London Fashion Week last night.

Madeline Stuart, the world's first supermodel with Down syndrome, is starting off 2018 the fittest she's ever been. Doctors once told her mom she would never amount to anything, but 21 years later, she continues to prove them wrong while inspiring thousands along the way.
 
She committed to healthy eating and exercising, working out 6 days a week with a personal trainer and sprinkles in time on the basketball court and on the field playing cricket. She's lost over 50 pounds... an especially challenging goal for someone with Down syndrome.

What motivates her? Her love for modeling and inspiring others with disabilities to stay healthy and fit. Today, Madeline’s striking photographs have been seen by millions around the world. She’s been featured in major magazines and newspapers including Forbes, Vogue, Cosmopolitan and Woman’s Day to name a few. 

She’s strutted the catwalk during world-renowned New York Fashion Week, the Art Hearts Fashion Week, Style Fashion Week, and Melange Fashion Week along with many other shows around the world. She’s also busy with philanthropy work, recently receiving the Quincy Jones Exceptional Advocacy Award at the Be Beautiful Be Yourself Fashion Show, with celebrities such as actress and activist Eva Longoria, Jamie Foxx, Matt Dillon and more! The event helped raise more than $2.6 million for research and medical care for Down syndrome and the Special Olympics of New York.

Next on her to-conquer list is a bikini shoot. For now she plans to rock the runways at NYFW, LA Fashion Week, Paris Fashion Week, Milan Fashion Week and in Mercedes Benz fashion Week Istanbul for 2018.
