Can a swimsuit be worn as clothing? Candice Swanepoel tries to pᴀss off her monokini as a top by pairing it with jeans

Candice Swanepoel put her toned figure on display in new swimsuit pH๏τos posted to her brand Tropic of C’s Instagram account.

The blonde bombshell wore a tiny and strappy black monokini that she tried to pᴀss off as a leotard. These days women are wearing swimwear as clothing because they want to show more skin. Kim Kardashian’s ʙικιɴι tops worn under blazers is a good example.

She paired the suit with off-the-hips worn-in denim jeans as she held a black and gold jacket over her shoudlers.

The star wrote in her caption, ‘NEW black terra collection is now live! @tropicofc.’ She then added that the suit was ‘sustainable fashion’ and the shoot was by Greg Swales Art.

The cover girl wore her voluminous blonde locks down for the shoot that took place at a pH๏τo studio last month.

The site added, ‘Back to black, instant classics in our softest fabric ever, peach perfect. mix and match with your favorites from our beloved Black Terra collection. tap the pic to shop our new high twist one piece.’

Earlier this year, the Victoria’s Secret veteran reached the one-year milestone for her company, Tropic Of C, which makes ʙικιɴιs and one-piece suits.

The swimwear company is eco-friendly and sustainable and uses Candice as the top model for its skimpy suits.

The tagline is: ‘Influenced by nature, inspired by the female form, an eco-lifestyle brand born from a life spent at the beach.’

The talented supermodel has posted many themed collages of pinup images on her Instagram page.

Swanepoel, who began professionally working in the modeling industry at 15, opted for minimalistic accessories to complete her look for the shoots.

The model has been busy working with her brand and appearing in recent campaigns, such as Hugo Boss, which starred other celebrities, including Gigi Hadid and new mom, Paris Hilton.

When opening up about the motivation to launch Tropic Of C, Candice told Forbes in a past interview, ‘Sustainability is a key part of my lifestyle.’

‘I think coming from Africa and growing up with such a strong level of nature, it’s where I get inspiration,’ and admitted that the company initially began as just ‘a creative outlet’ for the beauty.

The star keeps up with a fitness routine to achieve her toned frame and told E! News that she enjoys using ‘ankle weights’ and doing squats.

Along with being active in the fashion and modeling industry, Candice also puts her main focus on family.

She shares sons, Anaca, 6, and four-year-old Ariel, with ex-fiancé and fellow model Hermann Nicoli. The two officially announced their engagement in 2015.

But they opted to go their separate ways in 2018 while maintaining a healthy co-parenting relationship. In September 2022, the supermodel was briefly linked to Kanye West.
