She's back and she's fierce! Tyra Banks stuns in figure-hugging dresses and skin tight corsets in behind-the-scenes shoot

It has been six years since she last walked down the Victoria's Secret runway but Tyra Banks proved beauty is timeless on Wednesday, bouncing back to her famous model shape for two different magazines' covers.
Wearing a host of figure flaunting outfits, Tyra put her weight struggles behind her and showed why she will always be a top model.
Still on top: Tyra Banks flaunted her slimmed down physique in a golden Herve Leger dress for Cosmopolitan
The America's Next Top Model posted the stunning behind-the-scenes shots of both Cosmopolitan and Arise Magazine's cover shoots on Wednesday.
The 38-year-old model showed off just how top form her figure is at the moment in a gold Herve Leger dress.
Showing just a hint of side boob, the tight bandage dress left nothing to the imagination.
'Golden dress reminds me of my golden rule – when wearing a tight Herve Leger dress, hold your breath!' Tyra tweeted.
Fashion is pain: Tyra had to be helped into a laser cut glass bustiere but the model was able to joke about the situation tweeting Cosmo, 'How many people does it take to get me into a corset?'
In another outfit for Cosmopolitan, the Tyra Banks Show host had to helped into a dazzling mirror corset by three people.
Made of glass by fashion duo Phillip and David Blond - of label The Blonds - the model had to be expertly laced in.
Tyra, while in great shape now, has been very candid about her weight battle - which saw her gain 30 pounds.

We are all prefect: Banks says she will never be a size zero, but that is alright by her
Tyra has also defended every model's - and every woman's - right to not be a size zero.
Earlier this year she wrote an open letter to The Daily Beast applauding Vogue magazine's move to not use any model that appeared to have an eating disorder.
'The truth is that if I was just starting to model at age 17 in 2012, I could not have had the career that I did,' Tyra wrote in May.
'I would’ve been considered too heavy. In my time, the average model’s size was a four or six.
'Today you are expected to be a size zero. When I started out, I didn’t know such a size even existed.'

Making how she felt, rather than how she looked, was the emphasis, Tyra tweeted on one picture where she dons a crown-like headpiece while wearing a dress designed by the late Patrick Kelly:
'Remember ladies: U don’t need a KING to be a QUEEN!'
Even with the slim down the fierce model has ensured she hasn't lost her famous curves, and made sure to use one of the dresses for the Arise Magazine to accentuate her curvacious look and larger than life personality.
'This dress needs a sign that says ''Caution: fierce CURVES ahead!'' Tyra tweeted.
