Model · Miss Universe France 2026
About
Classical dance, riding, piano, thrill-seeking, modelling, finance: Garance Authié has never kept to a single world. Since childhood she has moved forward with the same curiosity and the same drive: to discover, to learn, to push herself and to see through what she starts.
She passed her baccalauréat with honours at 17, studied at IE University in Madrid and the University of Maryland, then completed the Master in Management at London Business School, all while building a modelling career in France and abroad.
Curious about everything, she is as drawn to entrepreneurship and finance as to fashion and art. She is fluent in French and English, speaks Spanish well and has some Italian.
Her work took her into fashion, but she stays close to simple things and to nature. The sea has been part of her life since childhood: scuba diving, sailing and travel keep her balanced and sharpen her concern for protecting the environment.

Her cause
The freedom to choose your path
I want to stand up for young women’s independence and ambition, encouraging them to believe in what they can do, to take their chances and not to lock themselves into a single path.
I was lucky enough to keep studying while building a modelling career and exploring very different worlds. That freedom to choose has meant a great deal to me, and I would like to pass it on, in particular by supporting work on careers guidance, self-confidence and entrepreneurship.
