Red hot: Bar Refaeli shows off her 35-24-35 figure in a balconette bra, suspender belt and stocking in the new Passionata lingerie campaign


Israeli model Bar Refaeli shows the world just why she was chosen as the face of Passionata's underwear range in a sizzling new advertising campaign.

The 24-year-old strips off to pose in a series of sexy lingerie in the new Autumn/Winter 2010 collection.

Leonardo DiCaprio's on/off girlfriend was unveiled as the face and body of the French firm last November.


As the sizzling new shots were unveiled, Refaeli disappointed male fans in Paris yesterday when she turned up to the Passionata photocall... with her clothes on.

Despite being paid a healthy sum to be the face and body of the Passionata underwear range, the leggy blonde is so successful now she left the lingerie modelling to a group of lesser known models.

While being considerably more covered up than the scantily clad models, Refaeli still looked sexy in a figure-hugging little black dress and a pair of Christian Louboutin heels.

After posing for the cameras in her tight mini, Refaeli was then presented with a bunch of roses by one of the lingerie-clad beauties.

Her lucrative role as the face of Passionata comes after another high-profile modelling job for Garnier haircare.

While Refaeli's modelling career has been going from strength to strength, she has found herself hitting the headlines again in her native Israel.

Far right Israeli group Lehava have urged Refaeli not to marry her long-term love DiCaprio because he is not Jewish.

Activist Baruch Marzel wrote a public letter to the model, saying: 'It is not by chance that you were born Jewish. Your grandmother and her grandmother did not dream that one of their descendants would one day remove the family’s future generations from the Jewish people.

'Assimilation has forever been one of the enemies of the Jewish people.

'Come to your senses, look forward and back, too - and not only [at] the present.

Don’t marry Leonardo DiCaprio. Don’t harm the future generations.'

Last month, Refaeli denied reports she was engaged to DiCaprio after a four-year on/off relationship.

The engagement rumours were prompted after she was photographed wearing a ring on her wedding finger.

However, she said: 'No, there wasn't (a proposal) - let me explain: these rings, which are beautiful and made by a friend of mine, won't fit any other finger except this one.

'Yeah, what can I do? I'm 24 and there's still time. I'm in no hurry. I'm happy with where I am.'
