On Saturday, June 1, Sports Illustrated Swimsuit held one of the most sought-after swim events at the stunning W Hotel in South Beach.
This year was particularly special as it marked the 60th anniversary of the iconic magazine. To celebrate, SI Swimsuit unveiled their brand-new digital issue featuring Alix Earle, who graced the cover. Earle, joined by her family, also made a memorable appearance on the runway.
The evening began with a star-studded red carpet event, showcasing arrivals from Sports Illustrated Swimsuit talents including Achieng Agutu, Brooks Nader, Camille Kostek, Christen Harper, Ellie Thumann, Hunter McGrady, Jena Sims, Kamie Crawford, Katie Austin, Lauren Chan, Nicole Williams English, and Penny Lane. They were accompanied by notable personalities such as Abbie Herbery, Haley and Hannah Cavinder, Jilly Anais, Lele Pons, and Sarah Nicole Landry.
The W Hotel’s exquisite setting added an extra layer of glamour to the event. The highlight of the night was the runway show, elegantly staged over the hotel’s pristine pool, making the swim week show even sexier and more captivating.
Following the runway spectacle, the high-energy VIP after-party at WALL Lounge kept the excitement going. Guests danced the night away and enjoyed refreshing beverages from Poppi, capping off a night to remember.
