Doutzen Kroes Looks Great on the Beach
January 26, 2010 in Doutzen Kroes, Hot Models by Versus
Like Alessandra and Miranda, Doutzen Kroes is doing the beach thing this week (unfortunately, there’s no bikini in sight…yet) – here she is combining: 1. posing with 2. jogging and 3. doing a great job at looking athletic, slim and healthy.
There is soooo much more after the jump, take a look!
beautiful. i dont want to hear anyone saying she’s “fat” because look at that stomach, she clearly has a very low body fat percentage.
Well here’s to you hun>>> Doutzen’s legs remind me of a drumstick fried chicken…… thick on the thighs and thin on the legs
LOL you’re right
but she is so pretty
Oh, you mean her thighs are bigger then her calves…which is NORMAL, and anatomically correct, since those muscles are bigger then the others?
Ya, let’s compare her to something fatty and greasy instead….*rolls eyes*
It’s muscle tone though – not fat.
wow its scary how much people are influenced! they are toned, tight, fit legs! they look great…aaand yep the thigh is supposed to be bigger than the calf!
It’s funny because though you mean this in a negative context this is type of comment some guys would make to women to pay them compliments!
Afterall, everyone loves chicken!
She is gorgeous, much prettier than Alessandra and Miranda. She is also a great role model, she is healthy thin as opposed to sickly thin.
She looks wicked good, she is in excellent shape! Her face is similar to Adriana Lima, she just has a lighter skin tone and strawberry blonde hair. She’s a beautiful woman, and I think it’s WONDERFUL that she’s a lingerie model but also models with a fitness vibe, very cool. Though I really loved her a couple years back too: http://www.celebritywonder.com/picture/Doutzen_Kroes/DoutzenKroes_WireImage_6454286.jpg
wow she had a really nice body, maybe ’cause she was younger.
Yep, her body was pretty much perfect in my opinion around 2006, she still looks gorgeous now, just, rounder.
she has one of the most beautiful faces i’ve seen. Her body looks nice and toned too, but im sure a lot of people will be saying that models shouldn’t look like her, even though really does represent the middle category between super skinny and plus sized models.
On a side note, i really hate it when women run with their hair down in athletic ads…if she was really jogging, there is no way she would leave her hair like that!
I agree on the hair thing. My pet peeve is when i see people at the gym with their hair down. If you are able to work out with your hair down you might as well just go home because you’re not getting much of a work out… ugh!!
I workout with my hair down because I have such thick hair that I get really bad headaches if I pull it back for too long.
I do get sweaty but it’s better than the headaches. I will pull it back temporarily sometimes once I’m off the treadmill. The up and down jogging on the treadmill gives me a headache faster than just wearing it up while doing the weights.
Anyway, it’s not like I’m wanting to be a glamour queen with my hair down…I wear my beat up college sweat shorts and my husbands t’s for goodness sake. I just want to be comfortable.
I third that….seeing women walk in with their hair down, faces fully made up, earrings on is a huge pet peeve of mine. There was this woman that used to come to my yoga class who always came in fully made up- giant hoop earrings, bracelets, rings, hair styled, etc… are you working out or going to a club to pick up a man?
Why not do both at the same?
Joking.
A sweaty woman bouncing up and down is usually MORE than enough for most men
she’s not working out. she’s shooting for the VS catalogue
I used to run with my hair down all the time, and I ran cross country, so we did quite a bit of running in a day’s practice. But I do know where you’re coming from, because I see very few people who actually run with their hair down.
That is exactly why I love her- she’s that middle ground which you so rarely see. She’s gorgeous and her figure is healthily attainable. Just wish more models looked like her!
@ hellonhighheels- LOL!!! so true
She is the healthiest and thus best looking VS angel.
Her figure shows that having a few more lbs than Allesandra looks fab. When Doutzen models lingerie/underwear, I can believe it because she look fabulous and toned.
No bones in sight!!!
Now that is a body I’m envious of.
she look hot
versus, any guesses on her weight and measurements? im so curious! thank u
she has beautiful womanly hips
Sorry, all the sources said pretty unrealistic numbers, aka the standard measurements for models. See this link:
http://www.fashionmodeldirectory.com/models/Doutzen_Kroes/
Yeah that doesn’t sound realistic to me.
Those measurements suggest she’s an hourglass and she doesn’t look like one to me.
I would say she’s something along the lines of a skittle/spoon, which is basically something inbetween pear and hourglass.
I think she has a great shape.
i looked up miranda kerr and it says shes a u.s size 6 O.o thats very hard to belive
ha ha! that cant be true about Miranda! that’s just their ploy to say ‘see our models are extra healthy and not emaciated!’ we have all seen the pics of her wearing bathers that were probably the smallest size (as modelling agencies usually have) AND they are stretchy may i remind you…and she had to have them pinned up
way better than kerr and ambrosio. this is a body to be idolized. love it.
this woman is happy!
Is she a plus size model for Vs? She’s really cute! Big butt on that one tho!
Big butt???
The girl’s got booty but this is not what I would classify as big.
wait is big bad? because in my vocabulary having a big butt
is what i strive for! ( toned of course )
Me too! I want to have a bigger booty as long as it’s up where it started of course. I lost weight and my butt went with it…I miss my bubble butt:(
squats arent helping?
I have mixed feelings about squats…they do help my rear but I also think they my thighs get more bulky. Don’t like that either.
HIIT is a wonderful way to get a tight, toned butt. If you do resistance training a couple times a week (say 3) and do HIIT in between those days you can majorly tighten, tone and lift your booty. This is what I do and it gives me the exact results I am lookin’ for (Jessica Alba’s booty/legs).
Here is HIIT in wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-intensity_interval_training
I get the same thing with squats and I don’t like it.
Not at all!
It’s all about the booty!
I used to have bigger booty as a teen. I’ve still got a butt but (haha) it just isn’t the same(sigh)
I’m just saying that I wouldn’t classify her as having a big booty. She’s got junk in the trunk for sure but to me a big booty is Kim K, Melyssa Ford or J Lo.
Oh and thanks for all the tips below ladies. I was recently thinking about a routine of squats and lunges but i’ll try some of your suggestions.
Just IMHO it seems a little big in those spandex pants.
yea i skip the squats but i do straight leg dead lifts! omg! they are awesome! they havent bulked my legs up and trust me…i bulk up SO EASILY on my thighs its not funny. but they havent. i also do leg press but have my legs lower and i find it works my bum. ALSO i do lunges with a 15kg (around 35lbs) bar behind my neck, and one leg up on a bench. then dip down on the other leg. its great. ooo and HIIT is awesome in conjunction!
trust me i lost weight and heaps of muscle. i was used to having a round tight butt all my life. it is ‘big’ i guess (size 2-6 varying) and very bubbley but its tight and firm and i LOVE It. and i know how you feel its sooo depressing when it goes missing!!!
YEAH! Thanks for all the tips ladies. I had done dead lifts before and I had actually just forgot about them but I do remember being sore in all the “right” places:) So I will definitely do those again. I’m also going to check out that website so I can see what HIIT is.
I do walking lunges but they are geting kinda easy so maybe I’ll add a bar and dip to amp up my routine:)
Thanks again ladies:)!!!
I’ll second the dead lifts, just awesome. For more information about HIIT, this guy has a great fitness website: http://fitnessblackbook.com/
Thanks for your suggestions! I’m on my way to a nice tush…wooo hoooo! LOL!
Meg OMG you like Rusty’s site? He is the BOMB! I lovvvveeee his website, how cool!
oooo im gonna bookmark that site! thanks for the link! happy butt lifting ladies! ha ha
Meg and Ali,
Thanks for mentioning my site. I always appreciate people spreading the word:)
Have never been to this site, but saw that someone had linked to me. Great pics…and a solid topic.
Good stuff!

plus size? she’s about a size bigger than miranda, and still smaller that Karolina Kurkova…she’s actually about Adriana’s size, do yu think that Adriana is plus size?
She doesn’t look like she has a similar body type as Adriana at all. She looks a lot bigger, more curvey in the few middle pictures – like in the leg area? If not plus size, maybe on the larger size for panties cause she has bigger thighs and booty. It’s obvious in these pictures – but she could always be sticking it out… and these could be unflattering poses. She looks much thinner in some pictures – while in others she looks like she has more soccer – girl type booty and thighs. She’s very gorgeous tho!
i know most people will oppose to this, but she really isn’t the typical (runway) model. i prefer the skinny and toned ones like ALESSANDRA…..she’s my all time favourite VS ANGEL
I agree with you, but she still looks nice. I used to adore her back in the day but she’s still cute now! She used to be MUCH leaner though…

She looks great!… she’s not too skinny.. she’s an attainable size if we work out hard and eat healthy!
i think she’s on the big side for a model
I’d have to agree but in a nice way – I think she is very pretty and fabulous but I agree she seems more plus sized than runway. Runway is much smaller. Its weird she looks bigger in some pics rather than others. I’d say she is more normal sized. Not exactly skinny but not cubby either.
Well she’s not exactly a runway model is she? (Except for the one or two times a year that VS has a fashion show. Though, if you look at her on the runway she’s very solid, which sometimes even skinny people don’t appear to be.)
She is – first and foremost – a commercial lingerie model.
before she ever done VS she was a high fashion runway model i suggest you look on you tube for vids of her doing just this
She looks great. It’s very refreshing to see a Victoria’s Secret model who isn’t stick thin with fake breasts.
what’s refreshing about her not having fake breasts? most of them don’t
Gorgeous lady but I bet she looks plus-size next to Miranda and THAT’s a scary thought…
She does not look like a pluz size model next to Miranda. People seem to think here that she is so much bigger than Miranda, but I’ve seen pics where they are together and she doesn’t look like 2 Miranda’s or anything, she’s just like one size bigger.
She looks so healthy and toned, She’s gorgeous!
Gorgeous healthy body. So different from the other models. Beautiful face too.
She looks amaazing and is really leaving all these other vs angels in the dust until Adriana who is deff coming back and Karolina *kneels and prays* comes back hopefully. Even Alessandra who was my everyyyythang a couple of years ago can’t compare to Doutzen although I’d really like to see her with dark hair!
I remember as a kid in the 90s this was the desired size (and shape) for models.
I think she looks great. She has a nice spoon shaped and she’s sculpted nicely.
wow, gorgeous!
She is soooo gorgeous… I definitely prefer her body type over the other super skinny ones.
girl has got a banging body. that’s for sure.
If I could trade bodies with anyone for a day, I’d pick her. She looks amazing
her body is awesome… I dont like her face very much
One of the best looking celebrities I can possibly think of… Absolutely gorgeous face paired with a body that is about as close to perfection as it gets (meaning she really made the best out of what was given to her – and that was already great I think).
I know she’s not fat at all, but it makes me sad to say that I saw this and thought “what a big girl.” I think the media is messing with the way I process these images because I know rationally that she’s probably a size four or six.
And I don’t know, I prefer Miranda and Alessandra. I’m really thin myself, a size 0 naturally (I eat healthfully, but play a lot of sports and I’m a teenager), and I oftentimes get the whole “guys like meat” thing. So I think I like seeing models that look like me being more preferred. However, I really like Doutzen because she’s in the middle. I like how VS might not be hugely inclusive of everyone, but I like how they represent more people than that whole, super thin, maybe-unhealthfully-bigger categories. I wish we saw more bodies like Doutzen and Crystal Renn in addition to Alessandra. I used to be heavier, and while that might not have been healthy for me (I never tried losing weight, I went vegetarian and ate better and it happened naturally), I really appreciated Doutzen and more “real-size” models when I was around a 6 or 4. I hope that everyone someday gets to be represented by the media.
I really liked reading this post. It seems very honest. And I agree with you.
I agree with whatyou’re saying but ….there’s no such THING as a “natural” size x person. Either you eat more (healthy food) and you weigh more. Or you eat less, and you weight less. There’s nothing magical, or predestined about your weight or your size. Calories in, calories out. If you wanted to gain, you could do it, your vegetarian diet won’t forbid you to be bigger. But if you want to be a size 0, why not say it – you LIKE being a size 0. Don’t make it sound like “oh, it just HAPPENED”, since everyone is in full control of their bodies. It sounds just as weird as an overweight person saying “well, it just happened, I’m a size 22″.
P.S. You being a size 6 didn’t make you less healthy. You don’t get healthier by getting skinnier. You can be a size 6 as a result of eating enough HEALTHY food and exercising to have a nice set of muscles…
or you could be a size 0, and not have those sets of muscles. Or you could be a size 6 as a result of gorging on sweets, and you could be a size 0 by starving.
Size =/= health
Well, fact is people do have different bone structures, so a big boned person – not a euphemism for fat – will just fet to a certain level of skinny. I get whay you mean, i am not disagreeing with you, i am just adding that the way your skeleton is built makes you appear smaller or bigger.
“There’s nothing magical, or predestined about your weight or your size.”
Wrong. There’s a lot of things predestined about our weight and size, ranging from genes that control metabolism, to genes controlling hormones and steroids, to genes controlling for amino acids that make up connective, muscle and fat tissue, to genes controlling for hunger and satiety, to size and shape of bones.
But I agree, I don’t think you can just look at someone and tell that they are healthy or unhealthy, unless they are 70 pounds or 400 pounds at an average height. You can speculate, but only a medical professional can determine the truth.
My aunts on my father’s side and my mom and grandmas are both extremely small and thin. When I was a size 6, I ate really unhealthfully, mostly not nutritious foods, brownies and ice cream for lunch, pizza for breakfast, etc. I started eating healthier because I have ADD and read somewhere that sugar and such have been shown to aggravate symptoms and healthier foods help neural functioning. I never counted calories, ate when I was hungry, and now I’m down to this weight. When I was a size 6, I never got any bigger. At this weight, it takes a lot of foods that now makes me sick (cupcakes, cake) to even gain a pound or two. Sure you can’t tell how healthy someone is from their size at all, but I do believe genetics have something to do with it. My sister eats around 4000 calories a day and is my size, and I still eat around 2600 calories a day (I was probably eating an astronomical amount before.) A lot of it is hereditary. And when I eat healthy foods, I’m at this weight. Don’t make it sound like I’m lying about my own body. I think I know it better than you do.
And seriously. Look it up. Like body type, most people have set weights, science has said, where it’s hard to go up or down.
I’m a size 0. When I was a six, I ate badly, didn’t exercise. Now I’m varsity tennis, I’m in dance class at my school, and I’m on varsity track and field. And despite some of my relatives not doing sports or a lot of physical activity, or watching what they eat, even older ones are sizes 2s, 4s, naturally. My family is naturally thin. It is genetic.
yea i agree with Casey…some people just cant be the same size as another…and you cant really tell if someone is healthy or unhealthy except for the eg’s you gave etc
i totally agree with you…she’s big, i prefer skinny to that
I think those pants are not great for her figure at all!
That being said, she’s really not that big. Her wide waist makes you think so, but if you would see her standing next to another model or person, you would see that she’s only 1 size bigger than most models.
I think she looks great, is beautiful, and has a nice booty. That’s not to say that Ale and Miranda look bad. All 3 look great, in their own way, although I want to see Ale gain a few pounds and outrank Doutzen and Miranda.
The only thing “big” on this woman is her smile. She looks fantastic, and just right for her frame/body type, wouldn’t ask her to change a thing(but I wonder how she would look as a redhead?
)
am i the only one who doesnt think she has a good body?
i don’t think she’s fat but she is not slim, either. not even “healthy slim”. she’s kinda in between healthy slim and chubby in my honest opinion. and she’s be chubby if she was this size and not toned.
don’t hate, i see worse opinions on posts about thin girls.
I love Doutzen so much. She’s gorgeous, strong, and if this was gym class, I’d pick her to be on my team because I bet she’s a hell of an athlete. It’s a shame she isn’t a runway model.
The problem I have with exclusively having uberskinny ladies on runway is that it pushes a figure that is – for the most part – either very, very young or more mature but very weak. This whole BMI thing is complete BS. If they cared about the models, they’d give them health insurance and a once-a-year pre-fashion week full blood workup to make sure their calcium, iron, and hormone levels are all right as well as full blood pressure and cholesterol. And bone density tests. But they don’t care. I also find it weird because so many designers are worried about meeting the bottom line – is their merch. selling? – and because the majority of even slim women look like Doutzen, wouldn’t it make more sense to use a variety of models so women can see how things would actually fit on them?
Obv there are women who are quite slim and narrow naturally, but based on looking around at people every day, that isn’t the average. OTOH, I get that fashion is art and it’s natural to gravitate towards extremes. Dunno.
But I still totally 100% LOVE Doutzen!
she looks good
love…tho her waist is very wide
It amazes how some people are not able to tell fat and muscle apart and take that as granted and as fact. This woman has probably a body fat percentage close to Alessandra’s. You don’t get those abs from fat, trust me. She looks really good, not highfashion runway model, sure, but athletic sportswear/lenjerie model. Which is actually her job. No, she is not big nor chubby. She is muscular. And some people tend to build bulkier looking muscles, it’s in your anathomy, not everyone will look the same if working out. She has a medium bone structure, as oppposed to Miranda for example. So, if you don’t like her because you can’t relate to her or whatever, fine, but don’t go telling she’s chubby or fat since clearly she isn’t. I can’t relate to her either, i have tiny bones, but unlike others i can appreciate a healthy glowing slim body when i see it.
I agree – she clearly works hard for that body so it’s dissapointing to hear people say she’s fat.
Uma- i agree completely! By george if i could get abs…or an entire body sculpted like this through fat then hand me the cheesecake! the whole friggin lot! lol! wow how easy would that be…
Her armpits look big and gross! Not my ideal type of body, just too manly for a woman……. not sexy at all
she´s so incredibly fit!
thick legs? no way
perfect legs!
she is in MY OPNION alot more prettier than adriana lima, just look at pics of them two next to eachother…adriana looks kinda evil!
but doutzennnn soo cute and pretty at the same time……thumbs up
The thing with Doutzen is not that she is fat, obviously she is not.
It’s that she is not sexy. For example Alessandra has not even close as beautiful features as Doutzen but she is sexy and that makes her more attractive.
yea i know what you mean, doutzen is more sweet looking, plus she has less waist etc
Wow! Hot body, beautiful face – perfect
!
Even on Doutzen’s worst “fat” day, she probably still makes more money than her critics on here talking trash about her weight. She’s gorgeous and toned. I like the variety Vicki Sec. features. Miranda and Alessandra can look too skinny at times. I like Doutzen a lot. She’s just right. Eat healthy, exercise, and your body will hopefully take you to the weight it feels most comfortable at. Go girl.
She looks amazing, healthy and toned, more models should look like her!
Doutzen, nederland is trots op je! Ga zo doorr, je bent een top wijf!!
Groeten uit Amsterdammm
I’m not a fan of this body type, since it’s too muscular for my taste. But this is how her body is built, there’s nothing much to do about it. I really admire her for working hard to have such an athletic, strong figure, although I wouldn’t pursue such body.
And those who say she’s fat – please check out these pictures again and if you really don’t see her being really fit you should try to figure out the distinction between “fat” and “muscular”.
What can I say…I think she’s perfect!Maybe because she looks like a good person,too(I don’t know if she is but she looks like).I like the fact that her body is toned yet not very skinny,just slim.
She’s so gorgeus. I wish I looked like her.
Wow she looks so good!! She’s from my country Holland. I’m so proud of her. She is also a really nice person, very down to earth:)
i love her body and face she’s very beautiful!!!!!!!
Great body, gorgeous face! Looking at her abs makes me want to workout:D
way better than miranda kerr and alessandra ambrosio!!!! she doesn’t look all skin and bones, she looks awesome!!!
not skinny women like her gives us confidence.
She’s gorgeous and has an amazing body. Check out those ABS. Geez!
WORD! she is so damn fine… btw love her cute little nose
)
god i just saw more pics of her in work out clothes. she is gorgeous. i never loved her at first but then i saw an interview iwth her at the VS show and OMG she is adorable and sweet and that body! WOW! i do prefer a smaller waist but she has perfect tummy- toned yet slightly softer, perfect legs, perfect ass, nice boobs (small but pert), lovely face, omg that ASS! (i am a woman btw lol)
PERFECT. Awesome muscular butt! Doutzen is my favourite woman on earth! I wouldn’t change anything about her. I hate how she is photo-shopped when she is clearly naturally lean and athletic… though I love this VS picture of her: http://www2.victoriassecret.com/commerce/onlineProductDisplay.vs?namespace=productDisplay&origin=onlineProductDisplay.jsp&event=display&prnbr=GJ-252536&page=1&cgname=OSCLOSPTVXX&rfnbr=5737
Holy goodness she’s so gorgeous!!! I want her body!
STUNNING… although she has a big booty for a VS model!
whats up wit you people and not liking big bootys!
i think if someone is modeling bikinis and lingerie you
SHOULD have a big booty.
She is in excellent shape! She looks like she takes really good care of herself. I really, really like Miranda Kerr’s body and Doutzen’s body is very different from hers but I think that they’re both pretty much perfect. All body shapes can look great, it’s just important to take good care of yourself.
Doutzen looks so beautiful. I think she’s the prettiest model in Victoria’s Secret. She has a natural beauty and a healthy body! I also love her long blonde hair, it looks very natural on her.
It’s also great to see a girl without a lot of makeup or fake tan…
