‘The most beautiful girl in the world’ after 16 years of popularity

French model Thylane Blondeau (full name is Thylane Léna-Rose Blondeau) was noticed when striding on the catwalk of fashion house Jean Paul Gaultier at the age of 4. Two years later, Blondeau was named “the most beautiful girl in the world” with the image spreading all over the Internet. The 20-year-old girl continues to pursue a modeling career and has participated in many luxury campaigns for brands such as L’Oreal, Dolce & Gabbana, according to SCMP. Blondeau has come a long way since appearing in Vogue Enfants, a spin-off of Vogue Paris, at the age of 6. She appeared in the world beauty rankings.

Born in Saint-Tropez, Thylane Blondeau is the daughter of former French Premier League footballer Patrick Blondeau and TV presenter and fashion designer Véronika Loubry. Her parents divorced in 2016. When asked about the happiest place on Earth, Blondeau once replied: “It’s a place where I can be with my mother and brother.”

Blondeau is close to many Hollywood celebrities and supermodels such as Kaia Gerber, Barbara Palvin, Gabriel-Kane Day-Lewis, Brooklyn Beckham. She worked with Lewis on the Dolce & Gabbana campaign. After that, the two were often spotted partying together at exclusive fashion parties, Elle UK reported.

Blondeau was scouted by Jean Paul Gaultier at the age of 3. She had her first photo shoot at the age of 7 with fashion photographer Dani Brubaker. In 2011, Blondeau appeared in a controversial photo shoot for Vogue Paris. The 10-year-old girl then wore heavy makeup and received many criticisms. However, Blondeau’s mother had an opposite reaction from the crowd. “I admit I was shocked during the photo shoot. But the only thing that amazes me is the necklace she wears is worth 3 million euros!” she told Glamor UK.

Since then, Blondeau has appeared on many magazine covers such as Jalouse, L’Officiel Paris, Teen Vogue, Self Service Magazine and Flaunt Magazine. She signed with IMG Models at the age of 16. She modeled for Dolce & Gabbana and appeared in the 2017 campaign with Zendaya, Presley Gerber, Lucky Blue Smith. Blondeau caught the eye while sitting in the front row at Michael Kors’ 2017 show with his mature look.

Blondeau is a multi-talented girl. She acted in her film debut Belle & Sebastian: The Adventure Continues (2015) and launched her own fashion line, Heaven May, in 2018. The model also stars in two upcoming films, Helvellyn Edge and The Loneliest Boy in the World is slated for release this year, according to IMDB.

Blondeau is dating Benjamin Attal – fashion entrepreneur with his own label TQL Boyz Paris. The couple is said to be engaged. On the personal page, Blondeau and Attal often share moments together. They are also not afraid to show affection in public. Recently, the female model messaged her boyfriend on her birthday: “I’m the luckiest girl to have you in my life! Life without you is meaningless.”

Besides the famous Dolce & Gabbana campaign, Blondeau also collaborated with Ralph Lauren, French perfume brand Lolita Lempicka and was chosen as the global brand ambassador for L’Oréal Paris beauty products. She often appears at the Cannes Film Festival.

Blondeau is also a social media star with more than 5 million followers and a loyal fan base that calls themselves “Thylaners”. She regularly attends fan meeting events and thanked them on her personal page, according to Wales Online. “I’m young and trying to make things right for ‘Thylaners’. I chat with them all the time and my mom often helps me answer texts,” she once revealed.
