Emma Watson dropped jaws in her tight, surfer girl swimsuit two years ago, and the photo is still live on her Instagram. In June 2023, the Harry Potter star showed off her slender figure in a skintight one-piece, posing with a surfboard as she shouted out the Prada Beauty brand she fronts. Stripping down during a rare display of her swimsuit body, Emma highlighted her slim waist and toned legs, sending out her signature class as fans went wild in the comments. The post, which earned Emma over 2 million likes, was also covered by media outlets, with one comment coming from a fan thinking that Emma's one-piece looked "painted on."

Satin Minidress At Prada Dinner

Emma Watson takes her Prada Beauty ambassador role seriously, and that includes turning up for events hosted by the luxury beauty brand. At this bash, she rocked a silvery satin minidress, adding a matching purse and heels while showing off her killer legs. The actress doesn't just front Prada Beauty, though. She's been busy directing shoots, namely her Prada Paradoxe fragrance one.

“I was very specific that, if I’m going to do this, I want to tell a story and I want to be a real character who is going to do something. To tell my own story and frame myself, to get to be in charge of my own image felt genuinely exciting," she told Harper's Bazaar Australia.
