Elle Macpherson is known for her ageless looks.
And the 61-year-old appeared decades younger than her years as she attended the ELLE Style Awards in Madrid, Spain on Wednesday night.
The supermodel opted for a chic ensemble for the fashionable event, consisting of a sequinned black jacket and matching trousers.
She added a pair of towering designer heels with a leaf motif and carried a gold clutch purse that coordinated with her chunky bangles.
Elle showed off her youthful visage with a natural makeup palette including a soft pink lipstick and wore her blonde hair down in mermaid waves.
From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, .
Elle has previously spilled some of her beauty philosophy.
'When it comes to beauty, I have always believed that when you're well within, it shows on your skin,' she wrote on social media.
'Like anyone, I've experienced both sides to this coin so when I'm not feeling my best, it will often result in dry, agitated skin.
'This is an intelligent and poignant signal from my body, telling me to go inward. I am constantly in awe of the miraculous design of nature.
'Healthy, glowing skin is both a reflection of your spirit and the supreme intelligence of the natural world expressing itself through you.'
Elle has attributed her ageless beauty to nourishing her body correctly and supplementing with natural vitamins.
She recently shared an old interview of her on NBC's Megyn Kelly Today discussing her diet and how she looks so flawless in her fifties.
'When I turned 50 I wasn't feeling very well and I wasn't looking very well,' Elle said.
'I noticed my skin, hair, and weight... I was just not feeling inspired, I had sugar cravings, and poor digestion.'
She continued: 'So, I went to my nutritionist and said listen, something is wrong, I need to address my lifestyle.
'She said I was taking a lot of synthetic vitamins so she put me on a powerful multivitamin, prebiotic, and probiotic powder.
'So I started taking it because I was kind of malnourished and I wasn't sleeping much and I wasn't eating enough fruit and vegetables and I was drinking too much coffee.'
The supermodel said after being on this new nutrition plan for a month and taking this natural multivitamin, her life was 'transformed'.
'I saw such a change and my friend, who is now my CEO, said 'what are you doing you look amazing?' and I told her I was taking this green powder and it's changed my life'.
Elle's dramatic transformation led her to starting her own natural supplement business and wellness empire, WellCo.
Previously joining Amanda Wakeley on her podcast Style DNA, Elle revealed her tips for getting a good nights sleep after realising the importance of getting 8 hours.
She said: 'I go to bed with a smile. I go to bed with a happy heart. And an eye mask. No clothes. My skin.'
The model also explained that she avoids caffeine, eats her last meal at 5pm, and relaxes with a hot chocolate before drifting away.
With the nickname of 'The Body', it's hardly surprising that Elle 's daily routine centres around health and wellness.
When the alarm goes off at 5am the first thing that Elle does is 'smile', coincidentally it's also the last thing she does before she goes to bed.
After grinning and reaching for a water and lime, she dedicates 25 minutes of her morning to meditating in bed ' to take care of her 'mind body and spirit'.
She then jumps on her bike and cycling to the beach for a 6.30am swim.
If time is short then Elle stays closer to home, explaining: 'I'll get outside and put my feet on the earth to ground.
'I do some yoga in the morning sun or Dr Zach's Four Minute Workout to stimulate nitric oxide.
'Sometimes I'll go for a cold plunge afterwards followed by a matcha in the sunshine before getting ready for my day.'
The mother-of-two always chooses to exercise outside and in nature by hiking, biking, swimming or 'simply sitting in the fresh air and sunshine'.
She said she has no set schedule when it comes to exercise and prefers to 'go with the flow' and swears by regular sessions in her infrared sauna as well as a cold plunge to 'reset'.
She then adds a collagen elixir to her morning smoothie and takes gut support and protein supplements to help with her nutrition.
A 'big believer in energy healing', Elle revealed she books regular appointments for acupuncture, chiropractic, breath work and sound healing as well as Russian Banyas, an ancient tradition of steam bathing with a wood stove burning dry tree or herb branches called veniks.
Elle adheres to a plant-based diet and prefers homemade meals made 'with love' so her lunch will be made using locally grown and organic veggies, handpicked from her local farmer's market.
An 'essential' part of Elle's day and to beat the 3pm slump is to perform an East Asian tea ceremony with her favourites being Rooibos tea in vanilla and earl grey.
To 'be at (her) best', the age-defying model then takes a range of supplements and elixirs from her own wellness brand WelleCo.
She said she takes care of her skin and body by juicing up to four times a day, dry body brushing, and following a $1,400 skincare routine from Dr Barbara Sturm.
Elle uses a dry body brush up to three times a week 'to stimulate circulation and lymphatic drainage, clear my system of any toxins, and exfoliate my body for smooth, soft skin'.
To wind down in the evening, Elle again likes to relax in the sauna then take a dip in cold water which she says is 'great for detoxing, immune boosting, lymphatic support and relaxation'.
One of her favourite weeknight dinners is miso mushroom soup with Japanese sweet potato.
Her nightly ritual then involves drinking a cup of WelleCo calming Tea and the last thing she does before sleeping is, of course: 'Smile. Put my hands on my solar plexus, think about what I'm grateful for that day, and drift into a peaceful sleep.'
