Elizabeth Hurley shares her time-tested secret to capturing flattering bikini photo

Elizabeth Hurley is sharing what she’s banned in order to get the perfect bikini photo.

In a recent Instagram post, the 60-year-old “Austin Powers” actress posted a photo of herself in a string bikini, as she divulged what her “secret to flattering bikini pics” is.

“BAN overhead sunlight,” she wrote in the caption. “When shooting bikinis, sunrise or sunset are your best friends 😉 We shot this at 7am… By 8am, I was lounging around in one of my equally flattering @elizabethhurleybeach kaftans, feeling glamorous AND shielded from the lethal sun.”

The photo featured Hurley in a tan string bikini as she looked off in the distance as she accessorized the Elizabeth Hurley Beach bikini with a gold chain.
