She oozes sex appeal on a nearly unmatched level, and Candice Swanepoel brings her breathtaking ways to the cover of the January 2012 issue of Harper's Bazaar Espana.

The South African supermodel appears clad in a Balmain frock with a black Victoria's Secret bra, gold hoop Cartier earrings and black suede sandals from Dior on the magazine's Koray Birand shot front page.

Previously talking about the first thought that comes to mind when she thinks of "sexy," Miss Swanepoel said, "When I think of a bombshell, I immediately think of Bridget Bardot. She's a woman who is so secure and just oozes sexy. Whether you are super feminine or more into that boyish style, you just own your look."

The 23-year-old has also dished about what she dislikes about the modeling world, telling, "One of the saddest things in our industry is you get to meet the most interesting people who you connect with immediately – you work with them for two days, and when you leave you know you might never see them again."
