Her beautiful brunette hair fell onto her shoulders and chest and contrasted well with the bright tone of her clothing.

Ratajkowski’s outing took place just two days after it was revealed that she was in final talks to join the cast of the upcoming romantic comedy series Too Much.

According to Variety, the supermodel will portray a woman named Polly, who is an ex-girlfriend of one of the show’s main characters and serves as a foil to the program’s lead.

The program is centered on a workaholic who moves from New York to London in the hopes of embracing a more stable lifestyle only to find herself in a rocky relationship with an emotionally stunted musician.

The project was created by Lena Dunham, and Megan Stalter and Will Sharpe were attached as its stars this past December.

The Girls star will serve as the show’s head writer and director, as well as one of its executive producers.

The first season of Too Much, which will run for ten episodes, will be released on Netflix at an unspecified point in the future.

Ratajkowski maintained an acting career for several years, and she has appeared in features such as Gone Girl, We Are Your Friends and I Feel Pretty.

However, the model has largely stepped away from her acting career in recent years, and she opened up about her decision to focus on other aspects of her professional life during an interview with The Los Angeles Times. 

She recalled: ‘I didn’t feel like, “Oh, I’m an artist performing and this is my outlet.” I felt like a piece of meat who people were judging, saying, “Does she have anything else other than her [breasts]?”‘

Ratajkowski also revealed that, at one point, she fired her acting representative, manager and and commercial representative.  

She stated: ‘I didn’t trust them. I was like, “I can handle receiving phone calls. I’m gonna make these decisions. None of you have my best interest at heart. And you all hate women.”‘
