Whether it’s spring, summer, fall or winter, we’re always game to talk about Padma Lakshmi’s incredible 2023 SI Swimsuit photos. The 52-year-old television host clearly feels the same, as she indicated that the warm summery weather was the perfect occasion to share a few favorite snaps from her time on location in Dominica with photographer Yu Tsai.

“It’s warming up 💛,” Lakshmi captioned the trio of images she shared with her 1.4 million Instagram followers on June 11. In the first, she wore a truly stunning two-piece greenery-inspired set by Elizabeth Shevelev. The Taste the Nation creator also posed along a tree branch as she modeled a string bikini by Tropic of C and chunky bracelets, while the final snap featured Lakshmi in a navy netted dress by Natalia Fedner.

“never stop posting these pics!” Jenny Yang pleaded.

“Oh Padma... you alone can be the cause of global warming 🔥 gossshhh ❤️❤️❤️,” one fan cheekily wrote.

“the seaweedkini 🤌🏻,” another fan noted of the Elizabeth Shevelev look, while an additional follower stated, “Our seaweed queen.”

“I want to come back in my next life as a tree branch now,” someone else quipped.

“An actual queen!!!!!” Crystelle Pereira declared.
