Bar Rafaeli sets pulses racing as she models her newly designed ‘Little Black Bikini’.

The catwalk beauty, who is dating Hollywood superstar Leonardo DiCaprio, shows off the skimpy swimwear in a new ad campaign for US surfwear firm Hurley.

Israeli-born Bar, 23, said: “Anyone who knows me knows that I am obsessed with finding the perfect little black bikini, [and] always searching for a timeless, sexy suit with the best fit.

“I have never been able to find the perfect bikini, until now. Hurley clothes and swimwear have a sexy and effortless look and feel, so when you wear them, you feel confident.”

The limited-edition Hurley Little Black Bikini by Bar Rafaeli goes on sale online on May 1 for $120.

A portion of proceeds will be donated to Boarding for Breast Cancer, a youth-focused charity that aims to spread the halt of the disease, thanks to early detection and an active lifestyle.

Bar added: “I am really proud of the final result. Women everywhere will have to have it. I won’t leave home without it.”

Sports Illustrated cover star Bar has been dating DiCaprio, 34, since November 2005.


Halles Berry prom queen election hell

Halle Berry says she was accused of stuffing the ballot box… when she was elected high-school prom queen.

And the Oscar-winner says it was because she was the only black girl in her school.

The 42-year-old says she hopes her daughter Nahla won’t face the same prejudice.

She says: “Nahla will grow up in a completely different America.

“[Barack] Obama is someone who’s more like her than not, who shares her history.

“Hopefully, she’ll grow up in a world where it’ll be easier than I had it. I had a rough time.

“I was accused of stuffing the ballot box for my high-school prom queen election because they couldn’t believe the only black girl in the school won.”

The actress made her comments to the US issue of Harper’s Bazaar, as she promotes the release of her new perfume, Halle by Halle Berry.

She says about the fragrance: “I wanted it to smell like fig and mimosa.”

During the interview, Berry shares some of her most intimate secrets.

The actress claims that her boyfriend – Nahla’s father – Gabriel Aubry keeps her youthful, saying: “I have a 33-year-old man. That’ll keep your mojo mojo-ing.”

She also believes that the only thing a woman needs to wear during sex is a tank top and high-heels.

She says: “Oh yes. Any high-heels. You just need to lengthen your legs.”

But the mother-of-one, who hopes to have more babies, is now a homebody whose only guilty pleasures involve buying outfits for her daughter.

“I buy baby clothes online,” she admits.

“Nahla can’t [even] wear all the clothes I’ve bought, because we don’t go anywhere as I can’t deal with the paparazzi.”
