In the series of snaps taken by photographer Jill Greenberg, the model stripped down and let her long, blonde locks fall loosely over her shoulders.
In keeping with her brand, which has been to showcase unretouched photos of herself in an effort to remain authentic and battle ageism, she opted to share photos that came “straight from the photographer.”
“For all of you who were unhappy about the retouching on my @lamag cover- and the rather large sticker- here is an unretouched version straight from the photographer @jill.greenberg,” she explained.
She clarified that she doesn’t walk around “looking this fab on a normal day,” and explained that the look took “two hours of professional make up and hair” to achieve, along with some “body makeup.”
“The result is me looking my best- with no retouching and no filters and no anything else,” she added.
Since she began posting unfiltered and, oftentimes, makeup-free photos on her page, she has grown her following from 12,000 followers to well over 500,000.
“I am very proud to be the cover and a part of this LA Magazine issue on ageism. We are doing much better in celebrating beauty that comes in many different sizes and colors, but age is still something to be conquered,” Porizkova captioned another post featuring the magazine cover, which featured a banner that reads “in with the olds.”
She also gave fans a behind-the-scenes glimpse of the shoot with a video that showed her dancing and posing.
“Just put some Bee Gees on and I can’t help dancing. And in this case , strutting my stuff for @lamag . As you can see, this was a fun, relaxed shoot helmed by @jill.greenberg . It always helps to be photographed by a woman when you’re at you most vulnerable- whether physically or emotionally naked,” she noted in the caption.
FOX reports that the shoot included Porizkova wearing nothing but colorful rings and stylish heels. In select photos, she sat in a see-through chair and held a cane.
Earlier this month, the model and actress shared a vulnerable selfie of herself crying, which received a good amount of backlash from others.
“A few of my friends accused me of being a narcissist and posting my emotions on IG so I could get attention and my a– kissed by sycophants,” she acknowledged. “I had to think about it. Am I here to gather sympathy? No.”
Porizkova revealed that the reason for posting a photo of herself crying was to come clean on various “shames” in her life.

“I’m here because I’m trying to exorcise my shame. I post thoughts and emotions that I’m ashamed of. I am ashamed that I’m am grieving, heartbroken and sad. I am ashamed that I am needy. I am ashamed that I’m aging.”
Previously, she posted a bikini photo along with a lengthy post sharing her disdain with society’s obsession with staying youthful and the pressure put on women to not age. She also called out the harmful effects of phrases such as “reverse aging."
“Combat age. Reverse aging. Rejuvenate. Anti age. None of this is possible. Yet, if you do an internet search on aging, this is what you’ll get. Pills, potions and workouts to fight the aging process,” she began as she flaunted her abs in a gold bikini and natural gray hair.
