Heidi Klum might be a 36-year-old mother of four, but her new cover and feature for InStyle's February issue proves she's still one hot mama.

The model/TV host/designer (check out her two new maternity fashion lines) discusses her passion for family in the issue, along with the struggles of being a 35-plus-year-old model in an industry that prizes youth above all.

"Models have a sell-by date," she tells the magazine. "There are certain jobs I don't do anymore, like the young, sexy, cute things for teenagers, or even 25-year-old girls. I go in a different bracket now."

Some projects in that new bracket include the aforementioned maternity lines, along with being the new face of Ann Taylor.

And although Klum's not walking the Victoria's Secret runway in a skimpy bikini like the rest of the girls, she proved at the lingerie company's latest show that she can still strut her stuff -- albeit in a gown. Though, stay tuned for this year's show.




In the behind-the-scenes video of the InStyle shoot, Klum is shown frolicking in an oceanside mansion looking positively smoldering with voluminous locks, dripping in jewels and lots of strapless getups that hint at no sign whatsoever of having four babies -- one just three months ago!
