Gigi Hadid looked every inch the sexpot as she graced the cover of W magazine.

The American model, 20, struck a series of sultry poses as she told the magazine how stripping naked for a risque perfume ad gave her career a huge boost.

But the blonde beauty - who the magazine dubs a 'Post It Girl' because of her social media influence - says she's not just a pretty face, and has always viewed modeling as a business.

Posing naked for a risque Tom Ford perfume advert jump-started her career, Hadid told W. 

'I’ve never been scared of being naked in pictures, but I wouldn’t do naked for naked’s sake,' she said.

'With Tom, it was an easy decision. When you think of scent, you don’t think of clothes. In the beginning, I thought Tom would not want to know my name. 

'But he made a space for me in the high-fashion world. When Tom liked me, other jobs followed.' 

The model has been praised for her rare appeal to both high fashion and commercial gigs.

It may be swelteringly hot outside but Fall is just around the corner folks and it's never too early to start preparing for the chill.

If you're gonna do it, you might as well do it right, and by that we mean in Gigi's chunky knit mohair and silk blend sweater by NYC designer, Tabula Rasa.

It's not always the most obvious things that create sex appeal, although Gigi's ruffle knickers can put someone into overdrive-- we're speaking to the way one can look alluring with just the sensual texture of fabric. (Aka: mohair/ silk blend)

This loose fit, gossamer soft pull over is both unassuming yet wildly romantic and its coziness puts us into the same dreamy mood rendered in Gigi's photos.

The good news is that if you're ready to make an investment for Fall, then you can click right to buy Gigi's sweater from Tabula Rasa's website.

In the glamorous images, the Sports Illustrated model shows off her curves in a series of racy images.

She wears her blonde hair in a large, 1960s-inspired style, paired with a dramatic smokey eye.

In one sultry shot, she shows off her trim tummy by lifting up her sweater and exposing a pair of frilly Angela Friedman knickers.

The beauty is also seen drinking as she lounged in bed, wearing a black La Perla bra and panties and a see-through Valentino top, and her long hair mussed into a sexy bedhead style.

The Santa Barbara-raised Hadid ditched her childhood modelling gigs for horseback riding and volleyball, before picking up her career again in her late teens.

'I have always been aware of the business side of this industry,' Hadid told the magazine. 

'I’ve always seen it as a career that required work and planning.'

The model made headlines after splitting with Australian singer Cody Simpson and taking up with new boyfriend Joe Jonas.

But she seems to take the attention in her personal life in stride, including rumors she and Kendall Jenner are fighting over British Formula One champ Lewis Hamilton.

'Supposedly, Kendall and I are fighting over Lewis,” the 20-year-old said.

'I have to read the news to find out what’s happening in my life.'
