Her photos showing off her piercing blue eyes and beachy blond hair captivated the world.
Aged 10, Thylane ignited controversy for being involved in a ‘risqué’ photoshoot for Vogue Paris which many people branded ‘disgraceful’ and ‘irresponsible’.
Since then, she’d made appearances at Fashion Week in both London and Paris.
