All in the quest to smile to the Bank? TOPLESS RIHANNA POSES IN NOTHING BUT A SKIRT AND TURBAN IN RACY NEW SHOOT FOR VOGUE BRAZIL

She's not shy about showing off her figure so it surely didn't take much to persuade Rihanna to strip off for a new magazine shoot.

The singer appears topless in the May issue Vogue Brazil, protecting her modesty by holding her hands over her breasts. 

Wearing just a skirt and a turban, a great deal of Rihanna's cleavage is still visible int he racy shot.

In the snap, Rihanna is wearing dark red lipstick and dark eye make-up.

The tattoos on her hands and collarbone are clearly visible.

This is the latest in a series of sexy pictures Rihanna has posted of the shoot on her Instagram page, showing off her curvy yet toned figure.

And even when she attempted to cover up with a dress, it didn't take her long to roll around in the surf, getting it wet and completely see-through.

The sexy images were shot in Ilha Grande beach, Rio de Janeiro, and one sees Rihanna naked on the beach, apart from a hat and a pair of bikini bottoms. 

Large gold earrings and bangles are the only other items she wears as she leans forward with her arms doing a poor job of hiding her breasts.

The sultry shot gives a clear view of the tattoo below her chest which spreads across her ribcage, a tribute to her grandmother Dolly who died in 2012. 

Other images show her wearing just an open jacket and black panties as she confidently strides across a sandy drive.

Rihanna is gracing the cover of the magazine’s 39th anniversary special, and it’s twice as nice for her fans as there are two versions to choose from.
