Elizabeth Hurley, the celebrated British actress, wowed fans with a stunning bikini photo shared just before summer’s official start. The 60-year-old star of “Bedazzled” showcased her fit physique in a revealing orange two-piece from her own swimwear line, Elizabeth Hurley Beach. Her bikini, characterized by a twisted knot top and low-rise bottoms, highlighted her chic style.
In the picture, Hurley topped off her beach-ready look with a straw hat, mirrored aviator sunglasses, and a broad smile as she posed holding a Clinique sunscreen bottle. The U.K. native frequently shares similar snaps on social media, enticing her followers with fashionable beachwear.
“I decided to venture into beachwear not only because I’ve always been obsessed with vacation clothes, but also because it’s an area where women, regardless of shape or size, can either look amazing or really get it wrong,” Hurley stated on her website, highlighting her motivation behind launching her luxury swimwear label in 2005.
Hurley often shares tips for capturing stunning bikini photos. Recently, she advised fans on Instagram with her “number one tip” while relaxing by a pool in a black-and-white striped bikini. She noted, “Being photographed in a bikini can be scary so here’s my number one tip: LIE DOWN!!” She explained that stretching out with sunglasses can improve photo results.
Her post included images displaying her toned abs and slender figure as she rested on her back with her upper body raised on her elbows, even dipping her hair in the water for a glamorous effect. Hurley wore the same orange bikini from her swimwear label, underscoring her dedication to showcasing various designs.
Back in July 2025, Hurley offered further advice on bikini photography, focusing on the importance of lighting. On Instagram, she shared a photo wearing a tan bikini adorned with gold chains, emphasizing, “the secret to flattering bikini pics? BAN overhead sunlight.” She recommended taking photos at sunrise or sunset to achieve the best lighting conditions.
“We shot this at 7am… By 8am, I was lounging around in one of my equally flattering @elizabethhurleybeach kaftans, feeling glamorous AND shielded from the lethal sun,” Hurley detailed alongside another snap wearing one of her kaftans.
In a 2022 conversation with SheKnows, Hurley challenged the notion that women shouldn’t wear bikinis as they age, labeling such attitudes “absurd.” She stressed, “It’s a terrible point of view,” urging women to dress as they please without judgment.
Hurley has consistently advocated for self-expression, stating, “women should do whatever the hell they want to do” regarding their style. Her outspoken views resonate with many, as she continues to provide fashion inspiration through her swimwear line and social media presence.
