A young French man with Down’s syndrome wants to become a model. On social networks, his pictures appeal to Internet users.
Making a handicap a force, this is the watchword of the young Dimitri Painçon, 22 years old, suffering from trisomy 21. Because despite his illness, he wants to become a model and pose for the older ones, reports the Huffingtonpost. Because if the faces with the perfect figure and the skin-shaped bodies have long dominated the catwalks, the difference seems to be gaining in popularity and turns out to be on the way to becoming a major asset. The young man, fascinated by fashion, hopes to break into this ruthless environment.
The adventure begin
Last year, the young Australian Madeline Stuart, also affected by Down’s syndrome, paraded on the sidelines of Fashion Week in New York, United States. A presence that had particularly marked the young Dimitri, who did not hesitate to start too, from his small village of Essonne. For the past few months, the young man has been posting photos of him on his Instagram account daily, and these have been very successful. He poses with allure and confidence. And from the sweatshirt to the suspenders, the young Dimitri knows how to be elegant.
