Petra Němcová featured in Ultimo ad campaign

In 2004, Czech model Petra Němcová was at the peak of her career. She was modeling for Victoria’s Secret and Cartier, and appearing on the covers of Elle, Cosmopolitan, and the coveted Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue. But while she was on location in Thailand with photographer and then fiancé, Simon Atlee, the Indian Ocean earthquake and subsequent tsunami struck. Atlee drowned. Němcová managed to hold on to a palm tree for eight hours until she was rescued and airlifted to a hospital. She suffered a broken pelvis and serious internal injuries.

After the tsunami, Němcová created the Happy Hearts Fund (HHF), a non-profit organization to help rebuild safe-resilient schools in areas impacted by natural disasters. On the NBC show Escape, which airs Sunday, March 15 at 9pm, Němcová will tell her story of survival. On a lighter note, Nemcova has just been named the new face of lingerie company Ultimo. Photos from her first sexy shoot will appear in the summer ad campaign.

She fully embraces nudity while playing the lead role of Hannah Horvath in her hit HBO series, Girls.

But in real life, Lena Dunham opts for a more conservative look – and certainly covered up while paying a visit to the Late Show With David Letterman on Thursday.

So, it came as a shock to see her strip down on Instagram just the day before.

Scroll down for video 

Sultry snap: Lena Dunham shared this snap of herself clad in lingerie that Ellen DeGeneres had gifted her on Wednesday, noting '...here I am in the thrilling negligee @theellenshow gave me. As offered, a sultry pose...'

‘Ok I’m not in the habit of breaking promises to you people so here I am in the thrilling negligee @theellenshow gave me. As offered, “a sultry pose.” Love you Ellen,’ the 28-year-old actress/writer wrote along with her steamy snap.

‘And I love you all, which is why I am sorry for this  #selfie #allalone,’ she added.

In the image, Lena is showing off her cleavage in a plunging white nightie printed with Ellen’s face and various cats.

The silly, sleeveless sleepwear is also bedazzled on top and ties around her bustline.

In the picture, the Girls creator channels her inner Miley Cyrus by sticking out her tongue, as the rest of her face is hidden.

Lena was gifted the négligée on The Ellen DeGeneres show after the comedic host found out that a previous gifting of a onesie wasn’t quite seductive enough for her musician beau, Jack Antonoff.

And it seems Lena had promised to strike a pose in the revealing garment- hence the picture proving she’s a woman of her word.

Conservative chic: The actress/writer was clad in a white blouse, patterned trousers, and a long navy coat

On Thursday, the Not That Kind of Girl author was back to bungling up, as she visited the set of the Late Show With David Letterman in New York City.

The star was clad in a white blouse and trendy patterned trousers, as well as a long navy coat and pair of well-worn black suede booties.

The Golden Globe winner is currently starring in her fourth season of HBO’s Girls.

She will also make a guest appearance on the March 19 episode of ABC’s Scandal.

Food to go? The star was carrying two to-go containers, as well as her female companion's crutch
