It may be winter in the U.S., but it’s swimsuit season all year around for Emily Ratajkowski.
The 26-year-old’s washboard abs were on full view as she perkily posed in a white crop T-shirt and red thong bikini bottoms on Friday.
The stunning model gave a sultry stare into the camera while posing up a storm.
Top of the crops! Emily Ratajkowski shows off her washboard abs as she posed in cutaway tee and thong bikini on Friday
The Blurred Lines vixen has understandably never been afraid of showing off her flawless figure on Instagram, and her social media offerings this week included a flirty dancing video and a Botticelli inspired snap.
Standing completely naked, she mimicked the goddess of love, beauty, sex and fertility from the Italian master’s famous Birth Of Venus painting.
Like the seashell surfing deity, strategically placed hair and hands helped preserve her modesty.
The actress, who has often posted images of herself of the steamier variety, discussed online photos with Naomi Wolf in Harper’s Bazaar in 2016.
‘A selfie is a sort of interesting way to reclaim the gaze, right?’ said Emily. ‘You’re looking at yourself and taking a photo while looking at everyone.’
She explained: ‘When I post a selfie and someone comments: “Oh, sure, go ahead and reclaim your sexuality, I got my rocks off,” that’s not my problem.’
In Harper’s, for which she posed nude on horseback, Emily praised social media as ‘a format where you can be so direct with an audience’.
She said: ‘Social media is something women didn’t have ten years ago, and that’s a big aspect in feminism today. I don’t have to be filtered by anyone. I choose.’
Exhibitionism is not Emily’s only motive; the swimwear she so frequently models is from her own line.
