Heidi Klum Sizzles in Plunging Leopard-Print Swimsuit
German supermodel Heidi Klum is no stranger to showing skin, and the summer is no better time to strip down and hit the beach.
On Aug. 6, Klum shared a clip from her latest beach day wearing a swimsuit that left little to the imagination. The Project Runway star soaked up the sun in a leopard print bikini with various straps along the top and bottom. Rather than a traditional bikini bottom, the outfit features nothing but straps along her lower torso with a small patch of fabric at the bottom.
"Beach time," she captioned the post. "Not sure about these tan lines later." An Instagram Story snap from Aug. 7 showed nothing more than Klum's torso—this time adorned with an iridescent sequined two-piece bikini—with what appeared to be her husband Tom Kaulitz's hand on her stomach.
Given Klum's upbringing in Germany's cold winters, it's not surprising that she enjoys soaking up the sun as soon as the weather starts to warm up every year. As for her happiness in showing off her body, Klum told Ocean Drive magazine a few years ago that she "grew up very free" and has been used to "not hiding or feeling insecure about myself or my body."
"As much as I love wearing beautiful lingerie and clothes, I also love not wearing too much," she said, per Vogue Australia. "It's a free feeling that I've had since being a small child growing up in Germany. I had parents that never hid from me when they changed clothing or when I walked into the room. When we would go to the beach, my mom would sunbathe topless."
With more than another month of summer to go, Klum certainly has plenty of time to enjoy more beach days.
