Dutch Model Bregje Heinen is soaking up some sun in the most gorgeous velvet bikini. The 2014 SI Swimsuit model, who traveled to Barreirinhas, Brazil and was photographed by Raphael Mazzucco for her feature with the iconic brand a decade ago, stunned in her latest Instagram post. She laid on her side on the shore with the sand under her and crystal blue water just a few feet away and flaunted her sun-kissed glow, glass skin and sculpted arms and abs as she donned a burnt orange triangle style top with sun-shaped bedazzled detailing. Her honey brown locks were loose, soaking went and slicked back and she accessorized with cute, chunky and colorful gold flower-shaped earrings and a thin bracelet.

“☀️,” the 30-year-old, who, captioned the post shared with her 639,000 followers on Jan. 19.

The former Victoria‘s Secret model who walked the runway for the iconic brand for four years, has also starred in campaigns for or worked with major brands including Guess, DKNY, Prada, Just Cavalli, Versace, Alexander McQueen, Fendi, Balenciaga, Stella McCartney, and Karl Lagerfeld.

“I’ve been modeling in New York for three years. When I was really young, I did a lot of high fashion, but recently I’ve been working with Victoria’s Secret and Sports Illustrated, which is the dream. My shoots are sexier now. I thought it was going to be a crazier transition, but it’s been really fun. Sometimes I feel like people don’t really know who I am. And then somebody will stop me on the street and say, ‘Oh, I saw you at the club the other night.’ And I’m like, ‘Ooops!,’” she said in a 2014 interview. 

Today, Heinen lives in New York City and keeps up with her modeling gigs and Instagram followers. She and longtime boyfriend and actor Michael Trevino got engaged last December.
