What the woman once dubbed the 'most beautiful girl in the world' looks like aged 24

Thylane Blondeau’s face became famous around the world at a young age. She was given the title of the "most beautiful girl in the world" when she was just five years old, and from there, her career in the fashion industry took off.

Today, at 24, Thylane continues to make waves in both modeling and business.

Despite the intense public attention over the years, she remains grounded and has built a strong career beyond her childhood fame.

How Thylane started her modeling career

Thylane’s modeling career began when she was only four years old. She was handpicked by renowned designer Jean Paul Gaultier to walk the runway. Her remarkable looks earned her opportunities to work with major brands, including Dolce & Gabbana, Versace, and Hugo Boss.

By the time she was six, she had already graced the pages of Vogue Enfants, a kids’ version of the famous fashion magazine. These early accomplishments helped shape her reputation in the fashion world.


Thylane's response to beauty standards and cosmetic rumors

While Thylane has always been praised for her beauty, she has made it clear that she doesn’t fully identify with the title she received. In a 2018 interview with The Telegraph, she shared her thoughts on being called "the most beautiful girl in the world."

“People are like, ‘You know, you’re the most beautiful girl in the world,’ and you’re like, ‘I’m not, I’m just playing with my iPad,’” she said. Even today, she downplays the label, asserting that she is simply a person and not defined by her appearance.

Over the years, rumors about cosmetic work have surfaced, with many questioning if Thylane had altered her appearance. She has repeatedly denied such claims, insisting that her looks have remained the same over the years.

"I know that in this generation people tend to do things very early, but I’ve never touched anything," she explained on Instagram. "You can look at photos of me when I was younger, nothing has changed." Thylane encourages people to stop making assumptions based on makeup or lip liner.

Today, Thylane remains a major presence in the fashion industry and social media, with 6.8 million Instagram followers. She has also launched her own haircare brand, ENALYHT, marking a new chapter in her entrepreneurial journey.
