Model and actress Emily Ratajkowski has left fans stunned with her latest Instagram gallery post.
The mom-of-one has never been shy in baring all for the camera, and her newest batch of photos is no different.
While she dons a bikini and beachwear, leaving little to the imagination across the snaps, there is one where she is seen wearing nothing at all.
The 35-year-old posed for her naked swim, even sharing a video twerking in a bikini while on a trip to Greece with some friends.
Many took to the comments to share what they thought of her racy snap, where she can be seen using a wine glass to cover up.
While other snaps showed the We Are Your Friends star in thong bikini bottoms and a simple black top as she danced on a boat in the Mediterranean Sea, her supporters praised the post.
One wrote: “There is no summer without your summer posts,” with another adding: “I love vacation Emily.”
A third described her as "my favorite f***ing woman," as another wrote: "Live your best life girl!"
Several accounts commented a number of heart-eyed emojis too, clearly admiring the holiday snaps.
Ratajkowski, who shot to worldwide fame after featuring in Robin Thicke's 'Blurred Lines' music video while nude, has remained in the spotlight ever since.
She accumulates millions of likes across her snaps, even building up a following of 27.7 million on Instagram.
Posing for New York Magazine in June, the model held a baby doll and pretended to breastfeed it in photos, while showing off her figure.
She also wrote an essay about sex and dating as a single mother as part of the spread, and took to Instagram to share snaps from the shoot.
As part of the piece, she explained how she found dating following her divorce.
Reflecting on her dating life as a single mom in an essay for The Cut, Ratajkowski said that she established two non-negotiable rules.
"I had rules: Never miss bedtime and basically no sleepovers. These were natural and easy to abide by," she said.
The model explained that no matter how late her evenings ran, she always made sure she was home for her son.
"After any one of our evenings spent together, feeling the beat of an encroaching hangover-induced migraine and knowing that my son would be awake early, hungry, and with a diaper to change, I would silently dress and slither out of Elder Millennial's front door," she wrote, referring to someone she had been dating.
"There was nowhere I’d rather be than when I woke up with my toddler, so no matter the number of martinis, I’d be fully dressed and out the door to relieve the sitter and be ready for my son’s 6AM 'Maamaaaa!'" she admitted.
She added that the man she was seeing often praised her commitment to motherhood: "Witnessing this, he'd tell me he thought I was a good mother. 'Single moms, man! Y'all are ah-mazing. Women are ah-mazing.'"

Actress Emily Ratajkowski has celebrated her pregnancy this week, by taking to Instagram to share a nude selfie.
In a post made to her 26.9 million followers, the 29-year-old former Sports Illustrated model uploaded a mirror selfie in celebration of her pregnancy, much to the delight of her fans on social media.
Ratajkowski recently took to Instagram to show off her new blonde hair:

Ratajkowski captioned her post simply: "20 weeks getting to know my new body [sic]".
Suffice it to say, her many Instagram fans loved the post and took to the comments to heap their praise upon the 'Blurred Lines' star. Take a look for yourself:
Ratajkowski spoke about the news of her pregnancy in a powerful essay written for Vogue, in which she opened up about the baby she's expecting with her husband Sebastian Bear-McClard.
Ratajkowski also seemed to imply that herself and Bear-McClard are intending on raising their child in a gender-neutral environment stating: "We like to respond that we won't know the gender until our child is 18 and that they'll let us know then. Everyone laughs at this."

She added:
"There is a truth to our line, though, one that hints at possibilities that are much more complex than whatever genitalia our child might be born with: the truth that we ultimately have no idea who - rather than what - is growing inside my belly.
"Who will this person be? What kind of person will we become parents to? How will they change our lives and who we are? This is a wondrous and terrifying concept, one that renders us both helpless and humbled."

She also spoke up about her fears of raising a boy, stating:
"I've known far too many white men who move through the world unaware of their privilege, and I've been traumatized by many of my experiences with them.
"And boys too; it's shocking to realize how early young boys gain a sense of entitlement - to girls' bodies and to the world in general. I'm not scared of raising a 'bad guy', as many of the men I've known who abuse their power do so unintentionally."
Per Elle, the actress first announced that she had married actor and producer Sebastian Bear-McClard, in a surprise New York City courthouse wedding on February 23, 2018.
Ratajkowski uploaded a picture of her and her new spouse to her Instagram stories, showing off their new wedding rings, which was captioned simply: "Soooo I have a surprise ... I got married today. [sic]"
Emily Ratajkowski has wowed her fans after revealing the impressive lengths she'll go to in order to get the perfect shot.
The 31-year-old star has been one of the world's most well-known models for the best part of a decade, shooting to fame following her appearance in Robin Thicke's 'Blurred Lines' music video.
However, despite posing for big names like Sports Illustrated and Vogue and walking countless fashion week runways, that doesn't mean that Ratajkowski is ready to rest on her good looks and not put the work in.
In fact, it would appear that Ratajkowski is willing to go - quite literally - above and beyond in order to bring a photographer's vision to life.
Check out Ratajkowski in action below:In a recent Instagram post, the model/actor revealed to her 29.7 million followers that she was taking part in a shoot with TORSO Solutions.
In the pics and videos, Ratajkowski could be seen dangling from the ceiling, held in place by a harness around her waist. Other than the harness, Ratajkowski could be seen posing in a pair of black heels, pasties, and underwear.
Ratajkowski captioned the post: "I do my own stunts".
In less than 24 hours, the post amassed more than 580,000 'likes' on the social media platform, with people flooding the comments section with praise for the star, with DJ Chantel Jeffries telling Ratajkowski to "stay fly" and Derek Blasberg quipping: "I need the b roll".
The stunning shots come after Ratajkowski delivered an inspiring commencement speech for Hunter College's class of 2023.
Speaking candidly to the graduates and loved ones in the audience, the model and author spoke out about finding the time to celebrate one's accomplishments - despite her personal battles with imposter syndrome.
"It's hard to celebrate myself, not as an imposter in a body, but as a soul deserving of joy," she said. "And I bet a few people here feel the same way.
"So, if you can't celebrate yourself, maybe do it for others; for the friends and family that greeted you when you returned home after your long day, who listened to you complain about your workload and your schedule, who encouraged you when you were filled with stress and hopelessness — for the loved ones who fill this audience, who can remember when you first had the idea to try and get this degree and cheered you on when you were sure you'd never make it.
"The people in your life who love you are a precious gift; treat them as such, enjoy them as such, celebrate with them. Thank you so much for allowing me to be a part of [inaudible due to applause]. Congratulations to the class of 2023."
Emily Ratajkowski accidentally caused a stir online after posting images of her laying in a bath nude with her one-year-old son.
The images, which were shared on the model's Instagram and already have 1.2 million likes, seemed to cause an issue among many of her followers - who said the images were inappropriate.
One user commented: "Why on earth [are you] taking pictures with your naked son... What do you do just for 'likes' and attention..."
While another wrote: "Since when is it normal to put intimate naked pictures of children into the internet. Creeps don't need darknet anymore nowadays..."
"How on earth does she manage to sexualize bathing with [your] child. Or better yet why do we have to see it!?" a third added.
"Putting a photo of your naked toddler son in a tub on the internet for all kinds of weirdos to see… [shaking my head]," another user had commented underneath the post.
Despite the negativity, many of the mom-of-one's 29 million followers complimented her on the images, including fellow model, Elsa Hosk, and Queer Eye star, Tan France.
Ratajkowski shares her son, named Sylvester, with ex-husband, Sebastian Bear-McClard - she filed for divorce earlier this year after allegations of the movie producer's affairs rocked their marriage, Page Six reported.
The former couple were married at a courthouse in 2018, just one week after publicly announcing their relationship. Sylvester was born in March 2021.
The 31-year-old model is no stranger to critiques on her appearance. In fact, Ratajkowski wrote a book of essays - which subsequently became a New York Times bestseller - that focuses on society's fetishization of girls and female beauty.
In it, she writes: "We are more than just our bodies, but that doesn't mean we should be shamed for them or our sexuality."
The book, called My Body, received some criticism on how Ratajkowski doesn't seem to offer women any solutions to the patriarchal structures that force women to be seen as objects of desire.
The model spoke about this in a 2021 interview with VICE, saying: "I actually really wasn't expecting those criticisms, partly just because I feel very connected to a kind of younger version of feminism, like what I see on TikTok and Instagram and Twitter."
"Criticizing women for wearing make-up and for posting sexy pictures – I just felt like we had moved past that, and that everyone had realised that it's not beneficial to slut shame women for the way they might appeal to patriarchal ideas and standards," she added.
Let's get one thing out of the way straight off the bat: Emily Ratajkowski is hot.
And I don't mean hot as in your cursory 'oh, there's a hot human being, with nice hair, a full set of teeth, a vaguely symmetrical face and generally pleasant demeanour', I mean hot as in 'if I walked past her and she gave me eye contact I'd probably collapse'.
Anyway, back to the matter at hand.
Instagram means that if you are hot in either of the two fashions outlined so diligently above, you're now able to profit from it in a manner that would make our elders blush a deep crimson and mutter 'good heavens' under their breath before looking nervously around at their over-bearing wives who are wondering why they've been using the computer for quite such a long period of time.

Anyway, once, again, I digress.
Emily Ratajkowski is a proponent of body positivity, and has become an excellent role model for people everywhere by encouraging them to embrace their bodies and take control of them, rather than allowing society to dictate what a woman 'should' and 'shouldn't' do with her own.
The chances are, if you've been on the internet of late, you will have seen some shots of Ratajkowski in a string bikini, ahead of the launch of more of her Inamorata swimwear. The model has an important message to share along with the pictures;
[[instagramwidget||https://www.instagram.com/p/BqLDXDXhgJn/]]
"What I think about what's important in 2018 for both men and women, it's about defying stereotypes.
"It's about being multi-faceted. It's about wearing a string bikini on the beach, and at a protest."
She's saying that we should be ourselves and not be confined to societal boxes, a great message that's positive for young people and old alike.
"I don't think that any of us have to limit ourselves into a box, or the perception that anyone tries to force on you. Hopefully men and women across Australia will take that to heart."

While it's true that not everyone is blessed with Emily Ratajkowki's startling good looks and self-confidence, it's great to see an influential figure in society using their platform to spread a positive message of self love; after all, the most important thing we will ever accomplish in life is self acceptance.
As GQ so neatly put it;
“In 2018, Emily Ratajkowski, largely regarded as one of the world’s most beautiful women, has defined herself by her ability to simultaneously leave people in awe and polarise them.
“Spending the last few years travelling the world as one of the planet’s most in-demand models, she’s also established herself as a de facto face of the modern feminist movement, spreading a message of body positivity and a ruthless, no-holds-barred approach to sexual equality that has seen her sweep up both accolades and criticism across the globe.
“Of course, Em Rata would never have been far from the limelight had she never become the tireless social advocate that she is anyway.”
You go, Em Rata!
