Meet Madeline Stuart, Model with Down Syndrome to Walk in New York Fashion Week

Her name is Madeline Stuart. She's an 18-year-old model with Down syndrome, living in Brisbane, Australia. And she's about to make her New York Fashion Week debut.

Madeline (who also goes by Maddy) began posing for the camera at an early age when she begged her mother to start taking photographs of her in her own outfits before she left each day. And the results are amazing. She was discovered in May of 2015, and has gained nearly half a million fans on Facebook and thousands of followers on her Instagram. The model can work a lot of styles, from floral to quirky and colorful designs.
