“In honor of Miami Swim Week here are my @si_swimsuit polaroids from my shoot,” said Olivia Dunne in her story by revealing her photoshoot pictures
In the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue of 2023, star LSU gymnast and influencer Olivia Dunne made her debut. She also posted never-before-seen Polaroid photographs from her session.
Photographer Margot Zamet captured 14 behind-the-scenes images of Dunne modeling various bikinis and cutout swimsuits.
“In honor of Miami Swim Week here are my @si_swimsuit polaroids from my shoot,” Olivia Dunne wrote.
Just a few hours prior to the 2023 SI Swimsuit runway event at Miami Swim Week, Dunne released the exclusive images.
The W Hotel South Beach will once again host this year’s runway event, which will be DJed by rising Miami-based DJ XANDRA. Brooks Nader, Camille Kostek, Christen Harper, and other SI Swimsuit models will walk the runway.
It is unknown if Dunne, who will soon begin her senior year at LSU, will participate in the fashion show.

A day after establishing “The Livvy Fund” on Thursday to assist LSU’s female athletes in obtaining NIL contracts in the industry’s male-dominated area, she published the Polaroid photographs.
Dunne was one of two collegiate athletes included in the 2023 SI Swimsuit Issue, a first for the magazine, after announcing her NIL deal with SI Swim in April.

Angel Reese, a star basketball player at LSU, is the other. She helped the Lady Tigers win their first championship in school history by defeating Iowa in the NCAA tournament in April.
Earlier this year, Dunne visited Puerto Rico for the first time to take editorial photos with visual artist Ben Watts.
She showcased several fashionable swimsuits, including a cut-out designer GG Stretch Jersey Swimsuit that cost $720 and made her feel good.

“My favorite shot was this one of me on my knees in the sand with the water coming up from the ocean and I’m in that suit, and it just made me feel really awesome,” told SI Swim while at the brand’s launch events in May at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Fla.
With a NIL valuation of $3.3 million, the New Jersey native is the highest-paid female athlete in the NCAA, according to On3.
