A leopard doesn’t change its spots.
And while Gisele Bündchen has access to practically any swimwear money can buy, she’s got a major soft spot for animal-print suits.
On Wednesday, the pregnant supermodel shared an Instagram Reel with clips of her cradling her baby bump while wearing a spotted bikini top and matching sarong.
It’s far from the first time she’s taken a walk on the wild side with her beach attire, as she shared several Instagram snaps in similar suits last year — and rocked Tropic of C’s bestselling Praia Bottom on repeat in 2020 and 2021.
She sported a leopard-print maillot while taking her daughter to horseback riding lessons in 2023. MEGA Bündchen’s been regularly rocking leopard-print bikinis since at least 2011. GADE / BACKGRIDWe’ve also spotted her wearing spotted bikinis while on the clock, as she modeled a plunging leopard-print one-piece for a Pop magazine shoot last year.
Her love for the look dates back to her runway days in 2011, when she sported a gray leopard-print suit on a trip to Brazil.
But you needn’t be a supermodel to rock Bündchen’s beach uniform; below, we’ve rounded up several ways to re-create her signature swim style.
