Samantha Hoopes has carved out a successful career as a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model, happily flaunting her ample curves in a series of sexy swimsuits and bikinis.

But for her latest shoot with the publication, the 27-year-old from Doylestown, Pennsylvania, eschewed traditional swimwear, instead posing in a humble white T-shirt - which she not only turned into an incredibly provocative ensemble, but also into a powerful political statement.

In a video posted to the publication's Instagram, Hoopes can be seen putting her ample assets on show as she emerges from a pool in nothing but a T-shirt and bikini bottoms.
