Thylane Blondeau Will Be the Next Big It Model by the Time You're Done Reading This
We wouldn't be surprised if you've already heard French model Thylane Blondeau's name. The 16-year-old covered Vogue Enfants when she was just 6, and two years before that, she was walking down the Jean Paul Gaultier runway. If you're assuming this caused a stir in the fashion industry, you'd be right — many people felt she was being objectified in the 2011 issue of Vogue Paris. But fast forward a few years, and Thylane scored a major spot on Jalouse and contracts with IMG Models and L'Oréal.
After she made her debut on the Cannes red carpet, mastering a look that was both playful and sophisticated, we were sure of it: Thylane is following in the footsteps of your favorite It girls.
