Paulina Porizkova is once again using social media to challenge narrow ideas about beauty and aging. The 61-year-old model shared a series of revealing photos and videos on Instagram, pairing them with a candid response to a comment about her body.
According to InStyle, in the post, Paulina Porizkova wore black-and-white striped string bikini bottoms while going topless. Rather than focusing only on appearance, she used the images to make a larger point about how women’s bodies naturally look and change, especially with age.

A follower inspired the post after admitting that Porizkova’s comments about not having a flat stomach made her feel discouraged. The commenter pointed out that the longtime supermodel still looked better, in her opinion, than many much younger women. Porizkova answered by showing exactly what she meant when she previously mentioned her “mini pouch.”
She shared close-up images and a video of her stomach while lying down, giving followers an unfiltered look at her body. Porizkova also included images of historic nude paintings that portrayed women with softer, rounded stomachs. “Soft and protruding bellies on women were always seen as beautiful,” she wrote. She reinforced her message with the hashtags #belly, #nofilter, and #noshame.
She Continues to Speak Honestly About Aging
The post follows Porizkova’s broader conversations about aging, fitness, and body confidence. Just days earlier, Paulina Porizkova shared a workout video and reflected on how surprising it feels to reach her 60s and feel physically strong. She also discussed the obstacles she and her husband, Jeff Greenstein, have faced. Porizkova underwent bilateral hip replacement surgery after years of severe pain and experienced menopausal weight gain. Greenstein has dealt with knee trouble, while both have arthritis in their shoulders. Despite those challenges, she wrote that they have never felt more comfortable or at home in their bodies.
Porizkova often uses social media to show a more honest side of aging, embracing wrinkles, changing body shapes, and natural beauty. Paulina Porizkova still enjoys the camera but now uses her visibility to challenge unrealistic beauty standards and promote confidence at every age. Her latest photos continue that message, encouraging people to feel comfortable in their bodies without trying to look decades younger.
