SI Swim Models Embrace Corsets and Sheer Trends

Corsets, sheer gowns and lingerie-as-outerwear are dominating recent Sports Illustrated Swimsuit looks and social posts, with models showcasing both high-fashion and risqué moments on runways and red carpets. Camille Kostek turned heads at F1 Austin in a black corset dress and matching jacket, underscoring her long-running partnership with the SI Swim brand. Ally Mason, a 2025 SI Swim search finalist, closed Miami Swim Week in a completely sheer, corseted Berta gown. Xandra Pohl teased a racy motorcycle video in a tiny corset leotard channeling Pamela Anderson ahead of a new shoot and fresh SI photos. Renee and Elisha Herbert, SI rookies and the magazine’s first twins in almost 50 years, promoted lingerie-as-night-out while Lorena Duran posed on a Paris rooftop and praised growing body inclusivity at brands like Victoria’s Secret. Miami model Kelly Hughes’ viral string-bikini shot — which visibly shows her C-section scar — made history in the issue and was age-restricted online, underscoring how the issue mixes glamour with provocative, conversation-starting imagery.
