Heidi Klum Soaks Up The Sun In A Super Short White Dress

Model Heidi Klum is back in a tropical paradise!

Although she had to head back to Pasadena, California, to film the live shows for "America's Got Talent," it looks like the 49-year-old German model is back in the sunshine for her latest Instagram snap.

In her latest Instagram post shared on Saturday night, the former Sports Illustrated cover model posted a photo that shows her standing in front of stone steps in strappy black heels studded with silver rhinestones. The heels perfectly compliment her long legs, which are on full display in a lacy white dress.

The long-sleeve dress appears to have a plunging neckline and is secured in the front with a belt with a gold clip. She accessorized the look with a matching bag and a thick gold strap. She donned aviator sunglasses to hide her eyes from the sun and wore her long blonde hair straight over one shoulder.

In the caption, Heidi simply left four fun tropical summer emojis: “😎❤️🌴☀️.” Although Heidi is no longer working as a Victoria's Secret Angel, she still looks like she's posing for a magazine cover!

Heidi Klum was the first-ever German Victoria's Secret model in 1998 and went on to work for the company until 2010. On Wednesday's episode of "Just for Variety with Marc Malkin" (via Yahoo! News), the renowned model weighed in on the Hulu docuseries "Victoria's Secret: Angels and Demons" that explored the brand's controversial history.

"I thought it was quite boring, to be honest with you," the supermodel said, admitting that she didn't recognize many of the faces who appeared in the documentary. "Hardly anyone I knew was on that show.'

"I didn't know who half of those people were," she admitted, adding, "It's so strange. I've never met any of these people."

Although Heidi is mentioned in the series, she does not appear. That appears to be Heidi's choice, as she revealed that she was asked if she wanted to appear in the Hulu series.

"They did approach me," Heidi admitted. "They asked me if I wanted to be part of it, and I was like, 'If you're looking for a negative story, you're barking up the wrong tree, because I had the most wonderful time there."

"I feel like they were my family," she added. "I traveled the world with them. I made great friends: Alessandra [Ambrosio], Tyra [Banks], Adriana [Lima], Gisele [Bündchen], you know, those are my girls."

Heidi called the negative stories "mind-blowing," considering the fantastic experience that she had with her Victoria's Secret "family."

"We just had the best time together. So, you know, hearing all these stories pop up, to me, is like, mind-blowing, you know?" she continued. "When they accuse different people of doing things, I’m like, ‘My gosh, like, did this really happen?' I don’t know."

"I was always waiting to get more insight," she added. "But, I don’t know, it never came, so I never continued watching it."

The brand has frequently been criticized for its unrealistic beauty standards and, although they have since taken steps to be more inclusive, even Heidi admitted that the steps the company has taken "should have been way sooner."

Heidi Klum's 18-year-old daughter, Leni Klum, is ready to follow in her famous mother's footsteps as a model. In 2020, she appeared alongside her mother on the cover of German Vogue and made her runway debut eight months later when she walked the runway in Dolce & Gabbana’s 2021 Alta Mode show in Italy.

In June, Leni graduated from Pacifica Christian High School in Santa Monica. Last week, she headed off to New York City, where she plans to study fashion first and pursue modeling on the side. Heidi is all too supportive of Leni pursuing her own career.

When ET asked her what mistakes she wants to help her daughter avoid, Heidi said that her daughter “needs to make mistakes,” adding, “You don’t want to tell them everything already.”

But that's not to say that Heidi's modeling career is over yet. The 49-year-old model recently showed off a hot new look going braless underneath a plunging gray dress. Fans can check out that outfit by clicking here.
