If we’ve learned anything over the past few years, it’s that the fashion world continues to break traditional barriers. In 2015, Madeline Stuart, a 19-year-old girl with Down Syndrome, made her modeling debut. Madeline continues to challenge societal views, and she “really wants to change the way people discriminate against disability through gaining attention through social media.” Moreover, “she wants people to know that Down Syndrome is a blessing, something to be celebrated.” Amidst preparing for her second New York Fashion Week runway show, the Australian model sat down with BuzzFeed to recreate a few iconic Disney princess looks.
