10 Times Olympian Lindsey Vonn Showed Off Her Toned Legs

Lindsey Vonn's legs made headlines throughout the 2026 Winter Olympics in Italy, with her crash during the women's downhill skiing event resulting in a complex tibia fracture. The Minnesota native had taken a risk by competing with a torn ACL, with fans still rooting for the formerly-retired athlete to take home the gold despite her injury. While her toned limbs have played a pivotal role in her success as a skier, sport isn't the only place where her legs have made an impact. 

Vonn arguably belongs on a list of Olympic athletes who have stunning off-field style, with plenty of her fashion-forward moments showcasing her killer legs. The professional skier really established herself in the style sphere in 2013, appearing at the Met Gala, posing for the cover of Vogue, and attending the CFDA Awards all in the same year. Her status as a style icon only expanded when she retired in 2019, as she appeared in slope-centered campaigns for brands like Thom Browne and Gucci.

When talking to British Vogue in 2021, Vonn opened up on her confidence in front of the camera. "You go through waves of being more reserved, and waves of being a little bit more feminine and sexy, and it just depends on where you are in life, but I've always been passionate about [fashion]," she said. That confidence and passion for fashion has seen Vonn displaying her pins in some great outfits on numerous occasions. 

Lindsey Vonn opted for a sporty skirt back in 2010

Lindsey Vonn has been showing off her toned legs for years, with the gold-medalist opting for a sporty skirt to celebrate Arthur Ashe Kids' Day back in 2010. The sportswear staple, accented with pleats on one hip, was paired with a pink top, blue zip-up, and white trainers. Vonn has been a long-time sponsored athlete of Under Armour, whose signature logo can be spotted throughout the outfit, with the Olympian even releasing a ski-centered line with the brand in 2017. Even though this ensemble is more laidback than many of her future red carpet moments, it still lets her muscular calves shine while speaking to her sporty profession.

She showed off her killer legs in a bold-colored mini

Lindsey Vonn sported another leggy look at an ESPN event in 2012, celebrating the fourth annual "Body Issue" of the brand's magazine, in a bright turquoise minidress. The Guess by Marciano frock featured a cinched hemline and flowy sleeves, which she paired with a dark blue clutch from YSL and black shoes. She rounded out the ensemble with hoop earrings, a silver watch, and a black-lined smoky eye, looking ready for a fun night at the club with her gams on full display.

The Olympic athlete turned heads with a slitted black dress

Next, Lindsey Vonn cut quite the leg-baring figure at the premiere of "Mile 22" in 2018. She turned heads in a black, one-shouldered dress featuring a thigh-high slit, accessorizing with a black clutch and strappy heels. The professional athlete styled her blonde hair in a straight, waist-length middle-parting, vying for a place on the list of celebs who've mastered the art of the red lip with a shiny dark hue and classic smoky eye. The ensemble definitely provided a teasing glimpse of Vonn's toned thigh, while looking sleek and slightly moody at the same time.

She had a teasing moment with a sheer floor-length gown

In February 2019, Lindsey Vonn went for enchanting bridal vibes at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party. The superstar skier posed in an intricate gown from Daalarna, with the floor-length garment featuring three-dimensional leaf and flower motifs over a sheer fabric. In addition to this lacy appearance, the wedding-inspired number consisted of a jewel neckline, banded waist, and unexpected hood. While this Vonn outfit doesn't bare as much skin as her minidress moments, the sheer fabric creates a teasing peek-a-boo effect that ranks this as another leggy look.

Lindsey Vonn's starry night sky dress put her legs on full display in 2019

Lindsey Vonn looked stunning at Sports Illustrated's Fashionable 50 event in 2019, wearing a minidress reminiscent of a starry night sky. The pearl-embellished long-sleeved gown featured a long slit down the center of the top half. She accessorized the dress with a reflective clutch, which gave major disco ball energy, one-strap heels, and loose curls that hung around her shoulders. Vonn's muscular physique is highlighted by the V-shape of the dress's hemline and a stretch of floor-length fabric cascading from the hip, making this a true standout from the 2010 Olympic champion.

The record-breaking skier posed in a preppy Gucci outfit with pops of red

Lindsey Vonn took to Instagram to share a small photo dump in May 2022, highlighting a leggy, designer-labeled ensemble in the process. Vonn posed for a full-body mirror selfie while wearing a tweed skirt-suit from Gucci, with her gold-buttoned blazer featuring the brand's iconic red and green colors. Though Vonn doesn't typically opt for such preppy, traditional outfits, she pulls this look off with her signature confidence, as the pleated skirt and color-coordinating red pumps really allow her toned legs to shine.

Lindsey Vonn was bringing sporty tenniscore in this monochrome outfit

While Lindsey Vonn is known for her record-breaking skiing prowess, the athlete was bringing major tenniscore energy at a Miami F1 race back in 2024. As seen in photos shared to Instagram, she sported a cropped, polo-style top, a pair of pleated shorts, and Prada-branded tennis shoes, accenting the all-white pieces with sunglasses and gold jewelry. Looking both casual and cute, this warm-weather look had Vonn ready to serve in more ways than one.

She channeled driver-chic in this leg-baring leather ensemble in 2025

Next, Lindsey Vonn added to the ways to style a brown leather jacket when stepping out at the world premiere of "F1" in June 2025. The Olympian sported oversized outerwear from Vassia Kostara Limited Collections, styling the leather number with a rounded V-shaped neckline. She paired the statement piece with a barely-seen miniskirt that allowed her toned legs to take center stage. The outfit was completed with pointed-toe heels, leather gloves, and a perfectly imperfect bun. Vonn clearly took inspiration from the theme of the movie, putting a chic and sexy spin on race car driver leather.

The superstar athlete stunned in a snakeskin miniskirt and plunging neckline

Lindsey Vonn celebrated 20 years with Red Bull in July 2025, having first signed with the brand when she was 20 years old. She curated a sultry style for the event, pairing a crocodile-textured miniskirt with a plunging bodysuit that showed her lacy bralette. Pops of gold jewelry, including a Red Bull necklace, punctuated the outfit, while the professional athlete wore her hair in sleek waves around her shoulders. For this star-studded evening, Vonn also added another leggy look to her list of fashion standouts.

The Olympian really turned heads with this scandalously high slit

Lastly, Lindsey Vonn made a scandalous statement at the 2025 ESPY Awards, arriving in a strapless dress from Elisabetta Franchi. The berry-colored number featured a torso-high slit that revealed both her toned calf and a hint of her underwear. She rounded out the red carpet look with a slightly wet-looking hairstyle and gradient eyeshadow, that both made for a sultry effect. Unfortunately, a rogue gust of wind did lead to a wardrobe malfunction, but the superstar athlete recovered with her normal confidence.
