About Laetitia Casta
Laetitia Marie Laure Casta was born on May 11, 1978, in Pont-Audemer, Normandy, France, to Dominique Casta, a civil servant, and Line Blin, a homemaker. Raised in a middle-class family with an older brother, Jean-Baptiste, and a younger sister, Marie-Ange, she grew up splitting time between Normandy and Corsica, her father’s ancestral home. At 15, she was scouted by a photographer while on a beach in Corsica in 1993. She signed with Madison Models in Paris and began modeling, balancing school until her career took off. Casta is of French and Corsican descent, embracing her dual heritage. She often cites her rural upbringing and Corsican roots as grounding her authentic, natural persona. She is primarily known as Laetitia Casta, with no widely used aliases. In the 1990s, she was dubbed “The French Muse” by fashion media for her classic beauty and Gallic charm.
Casta rose to fame in the mid-1990s as a supermodel, known for her voluptuous figure and radiant allure. She appeared on over 150 magazine covers, including Vogue (French, U.S., Italian), Harper’s Bazaar, Elle, Marie Claire, and Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, debuting in 1998. Her breakthrough came with her 1996 Vogue Paris cover, shot by Herb Ritts. She starred in campaigns for Guess, Yves Saint Laurent, Chanel, and L’Oréal, and was a Victoria’s Secret Angel from 1997 to 2000, appearing in catalogs and the 1997, 1998, and 1999 fashion shows, notably wearing the $3 million Diamond Dream Bra in 1999. She walked runways for Dior, Vivienne Westwood, and Jean Paul Gaultier. Notable moments include her 1999 Vogue cover with Gisele Bündchen and her role as a Marianne symbol of France (2000–2002). Casta continues modeling, appearing in Vogue France (2024) and Isabel Marant’s 2025 campaign.
Casta signed with Madison Models in 1993, later working with Elite Model Management and The Society Management. She maintains ties with global agencies for her ongoing work. Her editorial work includes Vogue (multiple editions), Harper’s Bazaar, W, Elle, Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, and Numéro. A muse for photographers like Ritts, Mario Testino, and Annie Leibovitz, she blended sensuality with high fashion. Her work was featured in the 2009 Metropolitan Museum of Art’s The Model as Muse exhibition.
In 1999, Casta posed for a Playboy pictorial, featuring artistic nudity shot by photographer Patrick Demarchelier. The shoot, celebrated for its elegant and tasteful approach, highlighted her natural curves and confident sensuality, aligning with her French heritage’s embrace of body positivity. She also appeared nude in fashion editorials, such as a 2000 Vogue Paris shoot, where nudity was used to convey timeless beauty and vulnerability. Casta described these projects as empowering, emphasizing artistic intent, though they sparked minor debate among conservative audiences.
Casta has a strong social media presence, with over 500,000 Instagram followers (@laetitiacasta). She shares modeling shots, film projects, and family moments, promoting her acting and advocacy for women’s rights, engaging fans with her artistic and outspoken persona.
At 5’7” with light brown hair and blue eyes, Casta’s measurements were approximately 34"-24"-34" during her peak, with a 34D bra size. Known for her curvaceous silhouette, full lips, and luminous complexion, she has not confirmed cosmetic surgeries, crediting her look to healthy living and genetics. She has no known tattoos or piercings.
Casta’s appeal lies in her natural beauty, large natural breasts, and French sophistication. Fans and designers, like Yves Saint Laurent, praise her as “a modern Marianne” for her timeless allure and charisma. Her expressive features, hourglass figure, and effortless elegance are often highlighted, with her acting career setting her apart.
Her net worth is estimated at $12 million, earned through modeling, endorsements (L’Oréal, H&M), her Victoria’s Secret work, acting, and directing. She was a top-earning model in the 1990s, with high fees for campaigns and runways, bolstered by her film career.
Casta faced minor controversies, including scrutiny over her 1999 Playboy shoot and her casting as Marianne, which some criticized as commercializing a national symbol. Her outspoken views on women’s rights and body image have sparked debate but earned her respect as an advocate.
Her acting roles include Gainsbourg: A Heroic Life (2010, as Brigitte Bardot), The Island (2011), Arbitrage (2012), and A Faithful Man (2018). She directed the short film En Moi (2016), premiered at Cannes. She appeared in music videos, including Rihanna’s Te Amo (2010) and Chris Isaak’s Baby Did a Bad Bad Thing (1995). Casta appeared on TV in Luisa Sanfelice (2004, miniseries), Ondine (2009, French series), and as a guest on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson and Le Grand Journal (France), discussing her career and films. She featured in The Super Models (2023, docuseries, as a guest) and Couture (2015, documentary).
Casta was in a relationship with photographer Stéphane Sednaoui (1999–2001), with whom she has a daughter, Sahteene (born 2001). She married Italian actor Stefano Accorsi in 2015, after a decade together, and they have two children, Orlando (born 2006) and Athena (born 2009). She lives in Paris and Lisbon, raising her children and balancing her career.
Casta’s legacy lies in her role as a 1990s supermodel and her transition to acting and directing. Standing only 5'7" with large D-cup breasts, she stood out from the other 1990s and early 2000s supermodels where heroin chic and androgyny were more popular. Her Victoria’s Secret work and Marianne role made her a cultural icon, influencing models like Barbara Palvin. Her advocacy for body positivity and women’s rights, along with her film work, broadened her impact. She supports charities like UNICEF and AmfAR.
As of 2025, Casta models selectively, appearing in campaigns for Dior and editorials like Vogue Paris. She promotes her acting projects, directs new short films, and shares advocacy for women’s issues via Instagram. She focuses on raising her children and maintains her status as a multifaceted icon in fashion and film.

Can you imagine getting a Victoria's Secret catalogue with Laetitia Casta on the cover! I've seen many women, but this lady could be the most beautiful woman in the world. Just awesome! Vive La France.

I was a teenager in the nineties, and it was a grand time for Ms Casta to grace our catalogs; probably the golden age for VS. I don't know about others, but I knew we were blessed at that time for such beauty to be at our fingertips. I literally had a screensaver on my first computer of nothing but her sexiest photos.

She's like another Giselle Bundchen; she's awesomely beautiful, and I almost forgot about her. Haven't seen or heard from her in years now.

i disagree. Giselle doesn't get in the room with her. Laetitia is orders of magnitude better than she is

Finally she made it into the top25. She deserves a few day at #1, but I'm afraid the mob is going to downvote her into oblivion.

logically if other women are liked more, then logically she does not deserve number 1 when it comes to a collective consensus.
