The 27-year-old Victoria's Secret model - who is expecting her first child with her partner of 10 years, Hermann Nicoli - showcased her growing baby bump in the stylish summery number.

Candice ensured she stayed cool in the caped sleeve dress thanks to a mullet hem, which revealed her toned legs and simple ballet flats.

She accessorised with a cute grey handbag featuring a metallic chain, and wore a pretty silver pendant around her neck.

The catwalk sensation opted for minimal make-up, wearing her long blonde tresses pulled back in a high ponytail.

The model revealed previously that she is expecting a little boy with her fiancé, Brazilian male model, Hermann, 33.

The supermodel and Hermann met in Paris when she was only 17 and the couple got engaged last August.

Her mum Eileen has been her constant companion of late, jetting over from their native South Africa to offer her support.

Candice has also been supported by fellow model Behati Prinsloo, who is expecting a child of her own with Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine.

The supermodel is beyond excited about the impending arrival of her first child with Hermann.

One source told E! News that she was 'so excited,' while another added: 'They are very happy. They plan to spend the summer in New York.'

Last year, Candice indicated her willingness to start a family by telling Hello magazine: 'I would love to have children.'
