While Elle Macpherson became one of the most famous supermodels of the ’90s — even nicknamed “The Body” — she has continued to captivate and charm fans throughout the years. Now, the star is turning 62, which prompted one friend to share photos of the birthday girl in stunning swimsuits.
To mark Macpherson’s big day, filmmaker Jill Campbell and the “Beyond the Gaze: Jule Campbell’s Swimsuit Issue” account shared a joint Instagram post that featured photos of the model posing in various locations and in multiple swimsuits during photoshoots.
In each pic, Macpherson looks beyond fabulous, and the images make it undeniably clear why she became a top model.

Actress Elizabeth Hurley also shared a birthday post with throwback photos, writing, “Happy Birthday to the gorgeous @ellemacpherson 🩷 hope we get to frolic together again soon 🩷🩷🩷”
Elle Has Opened Up About Aging
Getty“What are your thoughts on aging, and how do you stay confident and comfortable in your own skin as you get older?” Macpherson was asked by Vogue Czechoslovakia in July 2023.
“Real beauty is not just skin deep. It comes from deep within,” Macpherson responded. “That charm and charisma that others find so alluring comes from being innately well. When you activate your beauty through wellness, your own uniqueness shines for all to see, enhancing your own personal orbit and consequently the entire world in magnificent ways.”
Vogue also asked, “What are some of the key lifestyle factors that contribute to longevity, and how can we incorporate them into our daily lives?”
“I am big on simple, present-moment pleasures. I believe nature holds all the answers,” Macpherson said. “For me, the goal is not so much quantity as it is quality — presence more than longevity. I think self-love is the real answer. When I am prioritising my wellness and my relationship with myself, others and the world around me, I am being loving in the present. That naturally leads to more ‘life’ in life — longevity. So love, laughter, sunshine, movement, breath and water are my longevity go-to’s. And they’re free!”
Beyond that, Macpherson took to Instagram on December 19, 2023, and added a caption, writing, “If I could step back in time and have a word to my younger self about my body, I’d tell myself, ‘Easy does it, but do it,’ and do so with joy in your heart.”
“I’d also remind her that there is no point giving yourself a hard time in your quest for physical perfection,” she continued. “I’d also say to myself, laugh more, sleep more and find the joy and beauty in all you do. You ARE beautiful, unique, natural and vibrant right from your core (we all are) and all you have to do is be authentically you! Be you!”
