Stéphanie Thaïs Garcia is a French fashion model of Brazilian heritage, known for her distinctive green eyes and rich brown hair. Represented on the Main board of METRO Models — Switzerland's largest model agency, headquartered in Zurich — she has built a versatile and enduring career across editorial, luxury, and commercial modeling that spans more than half a decade. Garcia brings a rare combination of European elegance and Brazilian warmth to her work, making her one of the more sought-after models on METRO's roster.
Garcia is represented by METRO Models GmbH, a Zurich-based model agency founded in 2010 and widely recognised as Switzerland's largest modeling agency. With over 400 internationally relevant models, METRO stands apart from many European model agencies in that it represents its talent with full career highlights alongside their portfolio. Garcia sits on the agency's Main board — a division that houses the agency's most established and commercially active female models. METRO operates as a licensed Swiss agency and VSM member, ensuring all bookings meet the professional and legal standards of the Swiss fashion industry.
Garcia's modeling career gained momentum through a series of high-profile editorial shoots and brand campaigns. Her early work established her as a model with strong editorial instincts, and her portfolio quickly expanded to include luxury watches, fashion editorial, and beauty assignments. The breadth of her bookings — spanning French fashion titles, international luxury watch brands, and independent creative photographers — speaks to the versatility that top model agencies look for in their Main division talent.
Garcia's editorial credits reflect a career built on collaborating with established photographers and prestigious publications. She appeared in the editorial pages of Richard Mille Magazine in November 2019 — one of watchmaking's most exclusive titles. In September 2018 she appeared in the French lifestyle title Chic Alors, and in May 2018 she was selected as a face for Pierre Lannier, the renowned French watchmaker distributed in over 60 countries.
In March 2020, Garcia collaborated with French photographer Mary Ruffinoni on a notable editorial session in Besançon — cited in Ruffinoni's WhiteWall feature interview as an example of the photographer's pursuit of emotion and authenticity in portraiture. Further editorial credits include work with photographers Paul Morel (February 2020), Anthony Arquier (August 2019), Adam Amouri (May 2019), and John Lander (April 2019). Her most recent published credit is a 2025 editorial collaboration with photographer Clara Segui, released in December 2025, confirming her continued activity and relevance within the European fashion modeling scene.
Beyond her client-facing editorial work, Garcia has participated in beauty tests and test shoot sessions documented by METRO Models, including content published in November 2019 and early 2019. Test shoots allow models and photographers to develop creative concepts outside of commercial briefs, and Garcia's continued engagement with this format reflects a commitment to the craft of modeling that goes beyond simply fulfilling bookings.
Garcia maintains an active presence on Instagram, where she shares modeling work, behind-the-scenes content, and personal lifestyle imagery. Her profile is linked directly from the METRO Models agency platform, forming part of the agency's integrated approach to presenting its talent digitally. METRO Models itself maintains over 235,000 followers on Instagram, reflecting the modern reality that social reach has become a meaningful part of a model's professional value.
