Miranda Kerr’s flawless post-baby body has everyone a little jealous. The Victoria’s Secret Angel, bounced right back after giving birth, even hitting the runway in a Paris fashion show. But it didn’t come without a lot of hard work and some mixed emotions. “I felt a little nervous,” Kerr told PEOPLE recently of her return to the runway. “I hadn’t been in high heels for a while. It was probably a good five months since I’d worn heels, but it was kind of like riding a bicycle.”

Miranda Kerr went on to say “My hips are wider, and my boobs are obviously bigger,” she said. “I feel like I’ve become more of a woman now, and I’m really embracing those curves.” Calling Elizabeth Taylor and Audrey Hepburn her icons, the model mom says she’s most comfortable when she’s “just in knickers,” hanging around the house with Orlando Bloom and her son Flynn. “People have come to the house and I’m just in my knickers,” she reveals. “But I feel like it’s more appropriate to have knickers on than being completely naked.”
