Elizabeth Hurley is still sexy and she has the receipts to prove it. The actress and model posted a short video of herself frolicking around a tropical beach in the Maldives on her Instagram, and the blue string bikini she’s wearing shows beyond doubt that 57 is the new 25. She still looks as gorgeous as ever, modeling both the swimsuit and her figure to advantage in tropical sunlight and pale blue waters.

Elizabeth Hurley has never been one for accepting conventions. She was into the punk rock scene during her youth in the United Kingdom in the 1980s, the height of the movement. Her rebellious attitude saw her expelled from the prestigious London Studio Centre when she ran off to party on a Greek island.

Nevertheless, Elizabeth Hurley got her first movie role a year later in the 1987 film Aria and her beautiful face and exotic features became sought after. She played roles in movies and television, including the Wesley Snipes airplane thriller Passenger 57, and formed a relationship with actor Hugh Grant in 1987. The two enjoyed steady careers but did not make their mark until 1994.

During the premiere of Four Weddings and a Funeral in 1994, Elizabeth Hurley’s rebellious streak emerged when she wore a sexy Versace dress held together with safety pins. Hugh Grant was in the international spotlight because of his role in the movie, and at his arm, Elizabeth Hurley managed to dazzle, setting her reputation as a fashion icon as well as a beautiful actress. Shortly after, she was cast in roles such as Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery and Bedazzled, both of which relied on her beauty.

The famous Versace dress also caught the attention of Estee Lauder, the famous cosmetic company. In 1995, they named Elizabeth Hurley their spokesmodel, merging her beauty and theirs. The newly-made fashionista had a sense of humor about having no prior modeling experience, but she has more than made up for it since, as she became a model for many other major campaigns, including Got Milk? and Jordache.

Not just a pretty face, however, Elizabeth Hurley spent her school years taking honors classes in sociology and psychology and eventually applied her acumen to business ventures, including producing. She produced the movies Extreme Measures, Mickey Blue Eyes, and Method, as well as a season of the show Project Catwalk. She is currently producing another movie, a thriller called Strictly Confidential, that she will be starring in.

In addition, she launched a swimwear collection called Elizabeth Hurley Beach in 2005, and each year she models the designs. The blue sequined bikini she is wearing in the video is likely one from her collection, but the fashion icon looks great no matter what she’s wearing, as she recently showed off with a sexy New Year’s Eve gown. That’s why fans love to look at her.

Her Maldives video shows that she is still living it up and having fun, and looking great as she does it. She opens it with the line “Hello, from the beautiful Maldives,” but then steals the show by being the most beautiful thing in it.
