She's A Model, But How She Looks Will Shock You by theplushist: 4:55pm On Jun 01, 2015
Winnie Harlow (born Chantelle Brown-Young in Toronto) is a Canadian model who has had vitiligo since the age of four.She has the skin condition called Vitiligo.

About her childhood, she said : "While growing up, I was teased, ridiculed and bullied and called names like cow, zebra and all manner of other disparaging slurs". After dropping out of high school, she decided to see her disease in a positive way and accept it.

Winnie Harlow, then known by the name of Chantelle Brown-Young was discovered in the 21st cycle of America's Next Top Model after its host Tyra Banks noticed her on Instagram. After being eliminated in the fourth episode, she returned in the tenth before being eliminated in the thirteenth, finishing in sixth place.

In 2014, she advertised Desigual. About that, she said "Desigual stands for being unusual and unique and atypical, so they figured I'd be the perfect person for that". She closed the Ashish Spring/Summer 2015 fashion show. She worked for Showstudio, i-D and Dazed & Confused.

In 2015, she walked for Desigual and advertised Diesel.

There are a lot of people like Winnie Harlowe but she is so very special because she has decided to turn what people would have called ugly into a beautiful thing.
Her story proves to us that beauty is what you call.
When you call yourself beautiful, no one out there can change it.
We only become ugle because we ourselves believe it. Then the world begins to believe what we believe.
No matter how you look, what ever defects you may think you are, believe you are beautiful and you will become it!

Agree with u bro

What I find fascinating is that her 'colours' have the same designs on her left and right side

CALL ME HYPOCRITIC



BUT SHE'S STILL MORE ADORABLE THAN THE SO MANY NIGERIAN GIRLS WHO CLAIM TO BE MODELS ON THE INTERNET.. CUZ THEY'VE LOST THE IDEA OF WHAT TO DO WITH THEIR LIVES.

THATS HOW THEY BE POSTING LINKS EVERY WHERE ON THE INTERNET ASKING EVEN THE PEOPLE WHO DON'T EVEN KNOW THEM, TO VOTE FOR THEM. NONSENSE.
