Sofia Vergara, 53, Brings Back a Classic Black Bikini Look From Her Past
Sofía Vergara gave fans a surprise blast from the past this week. On January 30, the actress shared a throwback photo from her early modeling days in Miami, posting it directly to her Instagram account.
The photo shows a much younger Vergara enjoying a sunny beach day while wearing a classic black string bikini. Her hair is styled with soft blonde highlights, blowing freely in the ocean breeze. She looks relaxed, confident, and completely at ease, a look that helped launch her career years ago.
In the image, Vergara wears a simple triangle bikini top tied in the front with matching bottoms. The style is minimal, but it shows off her toned and athletic figure. Her makeup is natural, with glowing skin and a light nude lip that fits the beach setting perfectly.
Fans quickly filled the comments with praise. Many called her a “queen” and said she still sets the standard for beach style. Others said the photo was a reminder of why she became such a major star in the first place.
The throwback also connects to an important time in her life. Miami is where Vergara began building her career in the United States after moving from Colombia. Over the years, she has often talked about embracing every phase of her journey and being proud of where she comes from. She has described her approach to life and work as “fearless”, and moments like this reflect that attitude.
While the photo looks back in time, Vergara’s career is very much in full motion today. She recently received huge praise for her role in the Netflix series Griselda. Her performance as Griselda Blanco earned her a Primetime Emmy nomination, making her the first Latina born in a Latin American country to be nominated for Outstanding Lead Actress.
She is also back on television as a judge for season 21 of America’s Got Talent, continuing her long run on the NBC show. Alongside her acting work, Vergara is growing her business ventures. She recently began promoting her coffee brand ¡Dios Mío!, which supports female coffee growers in Colombia.
On top of that, she has partnered with Octavia Spencer on the Detect the SOS campaign, which focuses on kidney health awareness and encourages people with high blood pressure to get screened.
Whether she is sharing beach memories or taking on serious, dramatic roles, Vergara continues to stay in the spotlight. The response to her throwback photo shows that her influence and star power are still going strong, no matter the decade.
