Hello again, boys... Eva’s back in black

- By Alisha Rouse news@dailymail.ie

IT’S been 24 years since

that Wonderbra advert made her a global pin-up – but as this picture shows, Eva Herzigova still looks good enough to stop traffic.

The supermodel, 45, barely seems to have aged a day since the Hello Boys campaign, which was blamed for causing accidents as distracted motorists stared at her billboards.

Now a mother of three, Ms Herzigova has recreated her look from the 1994 poster for a new advert for Italian lingerie firm Yamamay.

Instead of a strict diet or gruelling exercise regime, Ms Herzigova claims she has motherhood to thank for her figure. ‘There are no secrets about trying to look good except to be who you are,’ she told the Mail.

‘I don’t really diet but I am flexitaria­n, which means I try to cut out meat when I can, but I think that rushing around looking after three boys probably is what keeps me most in shape. And also being happy.’

The Czech beauty announced her engagement last year to Gregorio Marsiaj, the father of her sons George, 11, Philipe, seven, and Edward, five.

She has previously defended the Hello Boys advert after criticism from feminists. ‘It empowered women,’ she said in 2014. ‘It didn’t degrade them like some said. It was controvers­ial, sure – but it made waves... It was one of the most successful advertisin­g campaigns in history and I am so proud to be a part of it.’
