Maeva Giani Marshall, who made her debut during the Zadig & Voltaire autumn/winter 2018 show at New York Fashion Week, is challenging the conventional canons of beauty after her distinctive freckled face - the result of hyper-pigmentation she suffered due a kidney illness - has become a regular sight on catwalks around the world.

The 23 year old is now going from strength to strength, with appearances at Jacquemus, Jil Sander, and Yohji Yamamoto, an appointment as the French ambassador for adidas, and a number of high-profile editorials - including one photographed by Kendall Jenner - all under her belt.
