We can't be sure, but Emily Ratajkowski seems to be cosplaying a superhero, Greek goddess or Mortal Kombat character in her latest ensemble. For those not chronically online (we're simultaneously jealous and confused, like... How?) you might have missed the fact that the model, actress and mother of one is currently on holiday in Brazil – perfectly timed for this year's annual Rio de Janiero Carnival, which is taking place right now.
Bringing her followers along via Instagram, EmRata has been sharing a look into her getaway and her vacay outfits. In her most recent post, the usual suspects all feature. Think teeny tiny thonkinis, open-back summer dresses and the aforementioned superhero-esque metallic two-piece that is underwear optional. Yep, Emily went braless *and* commando in the risqué design that consisted of an underboob-baring lace-up bra top and a dangerously low-rise open-sided sarong-style skirt.

Crafted from a metallic green mesh net fabric, extra sparkle was added with crystal rope holding together the top and tieing behind EmRata's neck to form a halter neckline. As for the skirt, the design was worn low below her hips and featured an open-side design with gold chain detailing connecting the swathe of fabric and creating a loose mini skirt silhouette.
Gold heeled sandals with straps that laced all the way up Em's legs to the top of her thighs added to the costume feel of the attire. Her only accessory was statement crystal drop earrings that finished with oversized gold flower pendants that dangled past her shoulders.
EmRata captioned the post, “Thanks so much for having me, Brazil. Carnival is amazing and so special! 🫶🇧🇷❤️”. And that's pretty much all we have to say on this look until we can find adequate wording beyond, ‘wow’.
