Kate Upton In Plunging Bikini Highlights Her 'Flotation Devices' In The Ocean

Kate Upton dropped jaws with her bikini ocean float back in 2018. Shortly before the pandemic, the model showcased her curves in another Sports Illustrated Swim shoot, flaunting her ample cleavage while lying on her back in the ocean waters.

Kate, who made her debut with the magazine in 2011, proved she's got staying power as she sizzled in a plunging swimsuit, although with her headline-making 2024 return to SI Swim, she's more than proven she's one of the magazine's solid favorites. The photo, posted on the social media platform X, garnered numerous comments, including a cheeky one referencing Kate's "flotation devices."

Scroll for the photo. Shot from a close-up angle as she bobbed around in the ocean waters, Kate enjoyed another ocean shoot, showcasing her world-famous physique.

Making eyes pop with a cleavage flash, the 33-year-old model wore a seafoam green bikini featuring thin straps and a very revealing neckline. Adding pops of color from lightweight embellishments, Kate kept her swimwear girly, incorporating yellow tones on her cups and briefs.

Gazing up at the camera and offering up a direct stare, Kate knocked the lens dead with her energy, wearing her hair wet and slicked back. The mom of one, who'd just about showcased her flat stomach as she lay in shallow waters, also wore a full face of makeup, sporting foundation, blush, and contour, plus dramatic dark eyeliner and a rosy lip. The photo was shared by the official Sports Illustrated Swim account.

"Kate is my favorite of all the beautiful models," one fan said. "Every picture always on point," another wrote, with a third jokingly referencing Kate's large assets as they spoke of her "flotation devices."

Kate Upton was back with SI Swim in this December 2024 photo, one coming as part of the batch of images circulating during the magazine's 60th anniversary last year. Modeling a plunging, criss-cross bathing suit in black, Kate folded her arms across her chest, putting on a busty display as she intimidated fans with her stare. "Remember they said she was plus-size back in the day?" one fan noted, referencing Kate's reveal that she'd once been told she was too large to model by a Victoria's Secret executive.

"Kate Upton crawled so Sydney Sweeney could run," another fan wrote.

Speaking about her experience, Kate Upton stated:

"It was hard when I was first in the industry, and people were like: "No, you are fat. But my body is something that you have to work out and eat healthily for." Follow our Facebook page for more from Kate!
