She's posing sideways in the black-and-white shot, which also sees a matching white towel wrapped around her lustrous locks and perched on her head.
The I Want You To Know hitmaker appears to be wearing minimal make-up, while gazing into the distance, displaying her stunning profile.
'TOWEL SERIES 73, SELENA GOMEZ. #MarioTestino #TowelSeries @SelenaGomez,' Mario wrote with an Instagram post of the steamy snap.
Proud of the photo shoot, Selena reposted the image to share with her 2.81m Instagram followers.

Selena is not the first to pose in the widely recognized Towel Series.
She follows in the footsteps of over 70 celebrities, including her ex-boyfriend Justin Bieber, Gigi Hadid and her beau Cody Simpson, Blake Lively, Lily Aldridge, Miley Cyrus, and Kendall Jenner.
Gigi and Cody were the first couple to strike a pose together during the 60-year-old Vogue photographer's shoot.
Meanwhile, the Come & Get It crooner has recently been on a working holiday in Mexico.
Earlier this week, Selena shared a snapshot of herself in a plunging swimsuit, addressing supposed criticism over her weight with the caption: 'I love being happy with me yall #theresmoretolove.'
'We decided as a family to come to Mexico to be inspired.... That's exactly what happened. #nowletthemusicspeakforitsself,' she wrote with a group picture - which includes producer Hit-Boy - on Instagram a couple days ago.
She has been soaking up the sun while working on her new album.
Selena's had quite the bustling schedule as of late, as she's also been spotted filming her new movie In Dubious Battle in Atlanta, Georgia.
In the upcoming film, set in the 1930s, Selena plays a young mother by the name of Lisa London.
Set during the Great Depression, the James Franco-directed film tells the story of an activist who gets caught up in a labour movement with Californian farm workers.
The feature is a screen adaptation of the 1936 novel by John Steinbeck.
The busy and hardworking starlet has also just finished filming The Revised Fundamentals Of Caregiving in the same city with actor Paul Rudd.
