Heidi Klum lounges on Gucci beach towel wearing nothing but a thong

Heidi Klum sure knows how to soak up the sun.

On Sunday, Klum kicked off 2026 with a sultry pic during a beach vacation, lying by the water. The supermodel captioned the snap, “Golden hour ☀️.”

In Klum’s photo, she lies on her back, with her hands over her chest. On the bottom, she is wearing a barely-there black thong.

The model looks to be makeup-free as she was lying on a wooden dock by the water’s edge.

There was a hidden designer moment, too, in the form of a Gucci monogram towel.

Crafted of cotton terrycloth, the reversible beach blanket retails for $610, though it’s currently unavailable online.

Klum has been heavy on the swimwear posts over the past week, even sharing a video wearing a thong bikini, leaning over to kiss husband Tom Kaulitz.

Though not shared on Instagram, the 52-year-old was caught by paparazzi over the holidays walking along the beach letting it all hang out as well.

Just a few hours after her Instagram post, she wrote “Let’s get to work b—tch 🤪” with a video of her working out on the very same dock, though this time she was wearing a full bikini set.

While this Gucci accessory might be pricey, it’s still not quite as iconic as last week’s Heidi Klum towel that featured Kaulitz’s face printed in full.
