Elizabeth Hurley rang in 2026 with serious spy-movie energy, stepping out in a barely-there bikini paired with a plush fur coat for a James Bond–themed New Year’s bash.
The Austin Powers star was photographed wearing a white fur coat layered over a coordinating belted bikini while attending the 007-inspired soirée. Adding a cheeky touch, she tucked a silver toy pistol into her bikini bottoms as she posed beaming beside boyfriend Billy Ray Cyrus, who opted for a sleek black suit for the evening.
In one snapshot, Hurley slipped out of the coat to pose with a life-size cardboard cutout of Daniel Craig. In another, she was joined by her son, Damian Hurley, who stood out in a silky halter top and leather lace-up trousers for the festive night.
The model and actress — best known for portraying Vanessa Kensington in the 1997 Bond parody Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery — glowed in the photos, wearing her hair in big, soft curls with smoky eye makeup and glossy pink lips. She accessorized with glittering hoop earrings to complete the glamorous look.
“Happy New Year 💋 Starting 2026 with a bang 💃🏻” Hurley wrote in the caption of her Friday Instagram post, adding the hashtag “#007Party.”
Followers flooded the comments with praise. “You should have been a Bond Girl!!” one fan wrote, while another added, “Wow wow 🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️”
“This wins it all! 🏆🏆🏆🏆 Bond Babe!” a third chimed in, with a fourth declaring, “What a goddess 🔥🔥❤️”
The sizzling New Year’s Eve shoot arrived just days after Hurley shared photos in an animal-print bikini from her own swimwear collection while explaining the power of proper lighting.
“Life’s a beach 💋” she captioned the Dec. 28 upload.
“When I shot my first American Vogue cover (in a bikini, of course), the extraordinary Steven Meisel taught me how vital backlighting was for a flattering beach pic- to this day I heed his wisdom, so here I am showing off @elizabethhurleybeach 😉❤️”
The image showed the 60-year-old standing beside a palm tree, modeling her chain-link–trimmed Cheetah Bikini.
Hurley — who spent Christmas cuddled up to Cyrus, 64, in matching red pajamas — frequently models her own designs for social media. Back in October, she posed in a mint green two-piece while offering up another posing tip.
“My secret to flattering bikini pics?” she wrote then. “STRETCH!”
“If in doubt, arms up or lie down,” she added.
Her latest bikini moment also caps off a transformative year. In April, the actress surprised fans when she posted a loved-up Easter photo with the “Achy Breaky Heart” singer, confirming their unexpected romance.
