Elle Macpherson returns to the runway in Australia after 14-year hiatus

“The Body” is back.

Elle Macpherson, 59, made her return to the runway after a 14-year hiatus, strutting her stuff at the Triumphant x PayPal runway during the Melbourne Fashion Festival in Australia on March 4.

The Aussie beauty glowed on the catwalk in multiple looks, including a Bianca Spender butter yellow trench coat and slacks set. The look was completed with a gold purse and white ballet flats.

She also donned a striking caramel look for Victoria & Woods, complete with silk pants and a fuzzy sweater.

The WelleCo. co-founder beamed as she strutted the runway, accessorizing with a coordinating scarf around her neck and an overcoat draped over her shoulders.

Her third and final look included a ruffled black dress with a plunging mesh neckline, completed with a black blazer and heeled sandals.

Before the 2024 Mebourne Fashion Festival, the blond beauty — who earned the nickname “The Body” in 1989 —was last seen on the runway during Paris Fashion Week in 2010, where she walked for Louis Vuitton.

She’s known for her print modeling as well, holding the record for the most Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue cover shoots.

We’re hoping she makes a return to the legendary magazine soon enough.
