Pix: The Hottest Bikini Bodies in Hollywood

A recently conducted poll has come up with 10 Hollywood actresses with the most coveted bikini bodies.

Topping the list is Raquel Welch, followed by Kim Kardashian.

'Despite a 40-year age gap, the voluptuous shape that Raquel and Kim have in common is coveted by women,' the Daily Express quoted swimwear buyer Sasha Nagalingam as saying. 'And it shows as our sales of gel-filled bust-boosting bikini tops have increased by 430 percent from last year already.'

Here's a look at the women with the hottest bikini bodies.

Raquel Welch

American actress Raquel Welch has been voted the top beach bikini beauty of all time.

Welch, 70, took the number one spot for the appeal she first displayed in the 1960s and 1970s.

Kim Kardashian

Raquel Welch pipped socialite and reality television star Kim Kardashian, 30, who is widely popular all around the world for her shapely derriere.

Debenhams fashion store, who conducted the poll, said its poll showed that curvy bodies were back in vogue over super-skinny figures.

Halle Berry

The Academy Award winner, who is half Caucasian and one half African-American, is considered as one of the prettiest girls in Hollywood. She also possesses a to-die-for body.

Beyonce Knowles

Apart from being one of the greatest singers of her time, Beyonce is also credited with having a killer body which she flaunts with aplomb in her music videos and stage performances.

It's a real treat to watch her frolicking on the beach in a two piece too. She recently took a vacation to the Caribbean with husband Jay Z.

Tyra Banks

Now a successful television personality, Tyra Banks counted the likes of Naomi Campbell as contemporaries and rivals.

The ex-supermodel is in her late thirties but her body could give several 20-somethings a run for their money.

Denise Richards

Disarmingly beautiful and mother of two, Denise Richards must have aged but her young innocence is intact.

And lets not even get started on her amazingly sculpted body.

Cindy Crawford

Former supermodel Cindy Crawford may have owed her super-successful modelling career to her mole on her face but her bikini body is just as devastatingly distracting.

The stunner has graced hundreds of magazine covers and is one of the most successful models of the entire 1990s.

Brooke Shields

With French and Italian roots, it's only natural that this brunette was born with the goods.

Now in her mid 40s, it's hard to believe she's come so far. The ravages of time have seemingly left her untouched and safe in a time warp.

Helen Mirren

Dame Helen Mirren, apart from being a terrific actress, is also revered for her amazing red carpet appearances.

Looking at her bikini body, who'd say this Hollywood veteran is 65! This British actress is turning up the heat at the beaches too!

Ursula Andress

Swiss actress Ursula is remembered as the 1960s ultimate sex symbol and for the unforgettable bikini sequence from Dr No.
