According To Maxim readers, this 26-year-old Australian of Portuguese-Chinese descent has the best bikini body.
Jessica Gomes, who will be featuring in the famed Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition for the fifth time, is apparently planning to reinvent herself as a high-fashion model.
The WA native credits her "ethnically ambiguous" Eurasian looks - a product of her Chinese Singaporean mother and Portuguese father - as the key to her broad appeal.
"I became famous for being a swimsuit model. But now I'm maturing as a model and I want to target everything, including high fashion,".
However, Gomes does not have plans to cover up for good. "I think you can have your poster on the walls of young boys' bedrooms, but also be a fashion icon."
"I feel so lucky that I can do [a fashion shoot like this] and then I can be on a really nice beach, wearing a bikini and rolling around, being the girl next door. I love that, too, and it's true to my heart because I'm from Perth."
"I lost four kilos," she said. "It made me really toned and changed my body shape."
"If you look at people such as Beyonce, Eva Mendes or [model] Lara Stone, these are womanly figured women, but they're all doing high-fashion," she added.
Jessica has graced the covers of Vogue, Teen Vogue, Glamour and GQ.
