Kirstie Alley wowed the crowd as she took to the catwalk at New York Fashion Week yesterday.

The 60-year-old actress - whose weight has fluctuated over the years - showed off her newly-slim figure at The Studio at the Lincoln Center as she strutted her stuff for Malaysian designer Zang Toi.

Kirstie - whose blonde hair was pulled up into a large beehive-style bun - looked stunning in a blue gown and matching dress coat and she later donned a fitting black dress over a pair of leggings.

After the show, Kirstie tweeted: "Thank You all the REAL Models for letting me share @ZANGTOI runway with you!!!!! You all were sooo sweet and looked soooo gorgeous!!! (sic)"

She then added: "THANK YOU @ZANGTOI !!!! I love you!!! I had the time of my life!!!! (sic)"

Ricki Lake was one of the first celebrities to share their admiration for Kirstie, tweeting: "Wow! You are a goddess! Yes, indeed an inspiration to me!"

Other designers to have shown at NYFW yesterday, including Marchesa, Herve Leger, Oscar De La Renta and Tibi.

Kelly Osbourne, Jessica Szohr, Olivia Palermo, Bar Refaeli and Petra Nemcova were among the celebrities to attend the shows.
