Brooke Shields looks radiant in a bright red pantsuit while posing for a photoshoot in New York City

Brooke Shields was seen hard at work at a photo shoot in New York City on Thursday afternoon.

The 55-year-old supermodel appeared to be enjoying her time outside as she posed for a few snaps that will be used for her upcoming movie, A Castle For Christmas.

The actress’ outing comes just three months after she broke her femur in a workout accident and underwent an extended period of recovery.

Shields was dressed in an eye-catching red pantsuit that made her stand out from the rest of the individuals on the photo shoot’s set.

The former fashion model contrasted her outfit choice with a black undershirt and a pair of white platform sneakers.

The Mr Pickles voice actress’ gorgeous dark-to-light brunette hair cascaded onto her backside and right shoulder. 

An assistant notably held a crutch that the supermodel used to hold herself up in between takes.

The actress broke her right femur after she fell off a balance board whilst at a gym in New York in January and has revealed that she initially underwent two separate surgeries to try and mend the broken bones.

Detailing the horror fall, she told People, ‘It felt like it was all in slow motion. And then I just started screaming. Sounds came out that I’ve never heard before.’

Brooke explained she was ‘afraid [she] was paralyzed’ at first but kept telling doctors she could still feel her toes.

The actress then had an operation to insert two metal rods, ‘one from the top of my hip down, and another across into the hip socket.’

After the broken portion of her right femur popped out, she immediately underwent a second surgery to add five rods and a metal plate to anchor it all in place.

She subsequently developed a very serious staph infection which required her to return for emergency surgery on the IV site where she’d had three blood transfusions. 

Shields explained: ‘At first they feared it might be MRSA. Thank God it wasn’t. If it had been, my doctor said it would have been a race against time. That’s how you can become septic. It seemed unthinkable.’

The Pretty Baby star is now having to re-learn how to walk again and has said she feels ‘helpless’ at times.

She added: ‘For the first time in my entire life, I thought, “I can’t power through this.” I can’t even stand on my leg or go up a step. I need to relearn how to even walk. The feeling of helplessness is shocking.’

Shields then told the media outlet that she was a ‘fighter’ and that she was determined to overcome her injury despite its severity.

She said, ‘This is my journey, and if it took me breaking the largest bone in my body, then recovery is something I want to share.

‘We have to believe in ourselves and encourage one another. There’s no other way to get through life, period,’ the actress added.
