The world's most beautiful girl is now all grown up.
At the age of just six years old, Thylane Blondeau received the title of the 'most beautiful girl'.
She'd already been a model for three years by this point, having reportedly been recruited by Jean Paul Gaultier at the age of three.
Fast-forward to 2024 and Thylane, who is now 23 years old, has modelled for the likes of Dolce & Gabbana, L'Oréal Paris, Versace, Ralph Lauren, and Hugo Boss, and rubbed shoulders with famous faces like Barbara Palvin and Zendaya.

And it's not just in work that she spends time with celebrities, but at home too, as she is the daughter of former television presenter Véronika Loubry and footballer Patrick Blondeau.
Thylane signed with IGM Models when she was 16, who have people like Alexa Chung, Bella Hadid, and Hailey Bieber on its roster.
As well as carving out a successful modelling career in fashion for herself, Thylane also has quite the social media presence and boasts a whopping seven million Instagram followers.

While Thylane is still very recognizable as the 'most beautiful girl in the world', the 23-year-old has ditched her blond locks and now has brunette hair.
From the looks of her socials, Thylane debuted her new look back in 2022.
Things haven't been always easy for the model.

Speaking to The Telegraph in 2018, Thylane explained how she didn't register the global attention when she was younger.
"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, people are like, 'You are the most beautiful girl', and I’m like, 'No, I’m still not, I’m just a human being, a teenager.'"
The same year, Thylane launched her own fashion line, Heaven May Clothing.

The brand's unique name came from two of her middle names.
She told The Telegraph that she wanted the clothing line to have similar styles she'd choose for herself.
The then-teenager explained to the outlet: "I’m travelling a lot so I just want clothes you can wear all the time; comfortable clothes. I’m a teenager, so it’s all about hoodies, pants and jogging [bottoms]."

At the time of writing, it is unclear if Thylane's clothing line is still in operation.
The brand's Instagram account hasn't posted to its page since 2019, and its website now seemingly ceases to exist.
