The Brazillian model launched her Ále by Alessandra brand earlier this year, and has now developed it firther with the design of 75 different styles in both one-piece and two-piece separates. The collection also has cover-ups, all of which she says have been inspired by her "Brazil-Bohemia-meets Malibu-Chic lifestyle".

Reflecting on her new collection, the 33-year-old beauty explained: "Being from Brazil I grew up spending a lot of time by the beach so it was only natural that my collection expends to swimwear.

"Brazilians are a bit more liberal with their swim choices, especially when it comes to cuts, so I incorporated both Brazilian and American cuts into this collection."

So happy that it's finally here !! #alebyalessandraswim #aboutlastnight #aleswimEBW @alebyalessandra @everythingbutwater
