Emily Ratajkowski might sell two-pieces, but the 28-year-old supermodel and Inamorata founder didn't appear to need a bikini top in her latest batch of promo photos for the swim and lingerie brand. EmRata has been making headlines for a series of snaps that had fans calling out a "weird" rib. The snap posted to the Inamorata Instagram account yesterday received little – in any – backlash, though.
The photos come amid the London. U.K.-born star backing 18-year-old singer Billie Eilish as her swimsuit photos storm ramped up recently. Emily said that women "can't win" whether they show their bodies or not. This particular image proved a winner for fans, though.

The photo (seen below) showed Emily shot by a white-framed doorway as she posed for her racy snap with carefully-placed arms protecting her modesty. Seen rocking nothing but earthy-toned and animal-print bikini bottoms offering pops of red, the brunette flaunted the abs that have been told they deserve their own award, also delivering a healthy cleavage flash via the topless finish.
Peeping the camera from under a floppy blue hat, Emily delivered her signature sultry vibes, also shooting the camera a direct gaze.

While the camera-facing shot brought in comments like: "I'd love to buy this poster" and Emily being called a "sexy angel," feedback was less positive in the image posted just after this one – Emily was posing in profile here and wearing the same look.
As The Blast documented, responses saw users hone in on a visible rib.
"What happened to the rib :(" one user wrote.
"What happened to ur rib???" another added.
"And the rib?? Are her photos all fake??" left one fan stumped.

With 26 million Instagram followers, Emily's high engagement rate is now a standard. Particularly popular has been a near 60-second video of the bombshell brushing her teeth while wearing nothing but a nude G-string. The Instagram Live footage went viral in no time, also currently sitting at over 3.6 million views. Celebrities also threw EmRata likes – L.A. Finest actress and former "America's Got Talent" judge Gabrielle Union, plus 56-year-old reality star Lisa Rinna both dug it.
As to other content from Emily amid COVID-19, the model has been sharing her home life, also including husband Sebastian Bear Mc-Clard.

Emily has made headlines amid the global pandemic for sharing a string of updates from her bed – the low-key athleisurewear or t-shirt looks have proven talking points, with a recent shot of EmRata in NY skater brand Noah making Vogue's headlines. The magazine noted that Emily being fully clothed bucked the usual trend – racy snaps from the star have, however, continued amid coronavirus.
Emily's Instagram also boasts an impressive celebrity following. The feed is kept tabs on by singers Selena Gomez, Miley Cyrus, and Billie Eilish, models Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid, plus stars including Khloe Kardashian and Vanessa Hudgens.
