So it was little surprise to see Gigi Hadid leading the charge on the catwalk at Tommy Hilfiger's New York Fashion Week show on Monday, dressed in a racy yet chic rainbow colored bikini.
Showing off the designer's Rasta-meets-preppy Spring 2016 catalogue, the 20-year-old model and her sister Bella stole the show in an assortment of Caribbean inspired garments.
Flaunting her tanned and toned figure to its full extent in the edgy and tiny bikini-style one-piece, Gigi couldn't help but beam back stage as she prepared to strut her stuff.
Taking to the catwalk in the one-piece, which featured a multi-colored floral print halter neck and teeny bottoms joined together with beaded strings, Gigi flashed her flesh to the assembled crowd in the racy swimsuit.
Looking as if she could have been on a tropical beach, the feisty model completed her outfit with a pair of floral slip-ons, a knitted Rasta themed bucket hat, some bracelets and a chunky necklace.
