Molly Sims made a splash in Cabo San Lucas this week, proving that age is just a number when it comes to bikini season. The 52-year-old supermodel shared a slideshow on Instagram showcasing her red-and-white striped string bikini, the latest chapter in a career defined by poise, beauty, and effortless confidence.
In the sun-soaked snaps, Sims stood barefoot in a doorway opening onto a bright oceanfront terrace. Her hair fell in loose waves, eyes hidden behind black sunglasses, layered necklaces adding a subtle pop of color. She posed with one arm raised, the other gripping her bikini strings, letting the light hit every curve of her svelte physique.
She complemented the two-piece with a sleeveless white cover-up patterned in horizontal red stripes and rounded out her carousel in a striking red midi dress, featuring lattice cutouts and a flared skirt that played against the Cabo sun.
This vacation comes ahead of Sims’ eighth appearance in the 2026 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, a return to the magazine that launched her modeling career in 2000. Over the years, she’s become one of the most recognizable faces of the Swimsuit era, sharing pages with stars ranging from Brooks Nader to Bethenny Frankel and rising influencers like Livvy Dunne.
Maintaining that figure isn’t just genetics. Sims has shared some of her routines with fans: a cup of bone broth for joints and gut health, a protein-heavy diet, and a disciplined approach to eating — no sneaking her kids’ leftovers. “It’s not one or two nights of poor choices,” she told Fox News Digital, “it’s a little bit here, a little bit there. That’s what adds up.”
In Cabo, with the ocean behind her and the sun overhead, Sims reminded everyone why she’s still a force in swimsuits — and why anticipation and confidence have always been her best accessories.
