Bare-faced Irina had her voluptuous lips on full display and let her natural beauty shine through in the snap, typically taken during a fitting.
Irina's hair was carefully tousled and tossed to one side, styled to created a voluminous look.
Her silhouette was on full display as she curved her body against a wall. 'Early Polas..@si_swimsuit,' she wrote, name-checking Sports Illustrated magazine.

While it is not known when the image is from, Irina first posed for Sports Illustrated way back in 2007.
The 5ft 10in model was recently named one of Vogue magazine's breakout beauty stars, having been acknowledged for her leap from the pages of Sports Illustrated to the runways of high-end designers such as Diane von Furstenberg.
She's appeared in the Spanish versions of Harper's Bazaar, Elle, and Glamour, the latter of which she earned the the title of Best International Model of 2010.
As of October of this year, Irina was named the new international spokeswoman for cosmetic giant L'Oréal Paris.

Oscar-nominated actor Bradley Cooper, 40, apparently took notice of Irina's beauty in April of this year, when the duo began dating.
In January, the gorgeous cover girl split from ex-boyfriend of five years, football star Cristiano Ronaldo, 30.
According to E! News, a rep for Cristiano confirmed their break-up, citing that it was 'best for both of us to take this step now,' before wishing his ex-girlfriend 'the greatest happiness."
