What makes 2016 such a badass year is that anyone can be a model. Women with amputated limbs walk the runway at New York Fashion Week [1] and Down syndrome didn't stop this fierce lady from starring in a beauty campaign [2]. Instagram is spotlighting this movement to accept diverse faces, bodies, and genders via #RunwayForAll. So far, the social media app has revealed four beautiful models: Mama Cax (who has an amputated leg), Londone Myers (who has a tooth gap), Clémentine Desseaux (who is plus-size), and Shaun Ross (who has albinism). Each photo contains the person's story and some words of wisdom. Desseaux wrote, "Role model is the new top model." Keep reading for more of their inspiring tales [3]!
