Springing back into action! New mum Lara Bingle showcases her slim waist as she collaborates with director and actress Gracie Otto on new season fashion shoot

She looks better than ever five months after welcoming baby boy Rocket Zot.

Lara, who has changed her surname to that of partner Sam Worthington on social media, dropped hints about the top secret project after a day of shooting on a New York rooftop this week.

Taking a black and white snap of the stunning Soho setting, Lara captured a cameraman in action while the talented sister of Lord Of The Rings star Miranda Otto can be seen standing in the background.

'On location @gracieotto #nyc,' the 28-year-old captioned the shot.

While Lara gae little away about the stunning shoot, others on set revealed they were 'Shooting Fashion SS 2015' in association with an Australian retailer.

In one image from the set, Lara appears completely in her element in front of the camera.

Wearing a tight-fitting black tank that highlighted her trim waist, she is seen laughing as a stylist fixes her hair.

The beauty, who gave birth to her first child in March, has her cropped locks styled in a wind-swept bob and wears understated makeup to let her natural beauty speak for itself.

Another shot sees her dressed in a different all black outfit, changing out of the figure-hugging ensemble into a loose-fitting design with a plunging neck and long billowing sleeves.

Interestingly, the images have been tagged with 'Today I am', a hashtag being used to tell stories of life, hope and courage, and is perhaps the theme of the shoot.

Lara was seen leaving the Dune studios dressed in a sleek pencil skirt on Monday.

She teamed the business-like number with an open collared shirt tied at the ends to emphasise her tiny waist and a chic neck scarf.

The Being Lara Bingle star recently returned to the US from Vancouver, Canada where she and Rocket have been supporting dad Sam while he has been filming his latest flick, The Shack.
