Actress Elsa Pataky has repeatedly presented her physical form, from tightly fitting attire to more revealing ensembles, across numerous public appearances and promotional events spanning several years. These displays have often coincided with her work with the lingerie brand 'Women'Secret' and have consistently drawn attention to her toned physique.
The consistent presentation of Pataky's body, particularly her legs and abdominal area, in form-fitting and sometimes sheer clothing has been a recurring theme in media coverage since at least 2014. This focus persists even as she navigates personal life shifts, including relocation and family matters.
Public Showcases
Pataky's appearances frequently highlight her athletic build. In November 2017, at age 41, she donned a "sheer metallic dress" for the 'Women's Secret' fashion show in Madrid, paired with burgundy velvet heels and statement rings. Prior to this, in September 2014, at 38, she wore "tight leather trousers" for a 'Women'Secret' project, having previously been noted for a "tightly-fitting green gown" at the Oscars earlier that year. More recently, in February 2024, at 47, she was seen in a "floral mini dress" in Byron Bay, showcasing her "toned legs and muscular biceps." Another instance in March 2024 saw her attend a Spanish footwear brand event in Madrid in a "backless mini dress."

Her public image has also involved more revealing attire. In November 2016, at 40, she appeared in a "very sheer black mesh dress," displaying her underwear. In December 2018, at 42, she wore a "very revealing black dress" with a single silver strap to a Netflix show launch. More recently, in February 2024, at 47, she was photographed in a "G-string swimsuit" at a Byron Bay beach. In September 2025, at 49, she shared images from a vacation in Fiji wearing a "red micro bikini."
Fitness and Lifestyle
Pataky has publicly linked her physique to a dedicated fitness regimen. In September 2014, she reportedly worked hard to regain her pre-baby body with her husband's assistance, posting workout videos on Instagram. Her routine has been noted to include yoga, swimming, walking, and kickboxing. In February 2020, she spoke about her move from Hollywood to Byron Bay, suggesting a desire for a less consuming lifestyle and prioritizing raising her children in nature. By February 2024, her fitness regime was described as incorporating glute work, yoga, boxing, and horseback riding, in addition to "intense fitness training" for roles like her part in 'Interceptor'.

Personal Context
These public displays of her physique have sometimes occurred amidst discussions or reports concerning her personal life. In March 2024, media reports touched on whispers of marital drift with husband Chris Hemsworth, though they later appeared together at family events. In September 2025, reports again noted her appearance at a Biotherm event while there were discussions of a "lengthy time apart" from Hemsworth. She has also commented on the non-perfection of their long-term marriage.
