She has one of the most revered rears in modelling.

But Elsa Hosk proved she is a woman of many talents as she showcased her perfect pins in a pair of dungaree shorts as she stepped out in New York on Wednesday.

The 27-year-old Victoria's Secret Angel proved she looks almost as good with all of her clothes on as she stretched her admirably long legs in the Big Apple.

The saucy Swedish stunner looked every inch the confident runway lovely as she sauntered down the sidewalk in her dungarees, striped top and flat shoes.

But the fine filly rocked the world of lingerie when she revealed she has not always been as body confident as she is now.

She said she actually 'hated' her famously delightful derriere so much as a teen she would, to the undoubted dismay of her classmates, try to hide it underneath sweaters.

Elsa admitted that she once felt insecure about the shape and size of her beautiful backside.

She said: 'I used to hate my butt — like hate it. In school I used to cover it up. I felt like it was too big like I felt like I needed to wear a sweater over it. It was awful.'

However, Elsa said that working with Victoria's Secret helped her embrace her derriere, and now it is one of her favorite assets.

'I would never show my butt, and now working with Victoria's Secret it is very celebrated to have curves, so I am now really proud of my butt,' she explained. 'All the members in my family are very gifted in that area.

'Even my brothers, who are really skinny, they have kind of shapely butts and it is really cute. Now I love it. I am proud of it.'
