The five hottest shots from Olivia Dunne’s sun-kissed SI Swimsuit photoshoot!
The 22-year-old gymnast and social media sensation, who made her SI Swimsuit debut in 2023, returned for her second shoot as an official rookie, looking more confident and radiant than ever.
After traveling to Puerto Rico for her first feature, Dunne headed to Portugal for her latest spread, shot by renowned photographer Ben Watts. Ditching the sporty, monochrome aesthetics of her debut, she embraced a softer, cottagecore-inspired style that highlighted her natural beauty against the breathtaking European landscape.
As one of the highest-paid female college athletes and a trailblazer in NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) deals, Dunne continues to make waves both in and out of the gym.

Dunne’s years of training as an elite gymnast were on full display as she posed in a delicate yet sultry two-piece. Her toned abs, sculpted through years of hard work, stole the show as she confidently stood against the lush backdrop of Portugal’s Douro Valley.
The natural sunlight enhanced her bronzed complexion, making for a truly breathtaking shot.
A Dreamy Cottagecore Moment In Feminine Lace
Switching up the sporty aesthetic from her first SI shoot, Dunne embraced a softer, more romantic look with a lace-detailed bikini.
Paired with delicate accessories, the ensemble perfectly blended elegance with allure. The LSU gymnast radiated confidence, proving that she’s just as comfortable on a photoshoot set as she is competing on the beam.
A Stunning Close-Up That Highlights Her Natural Glow
One of the standout images from the shoot was a radiant close-up that highlighted Dunne’s fresh-faced beauty. Her dewy makeup look complemented the sun-kissed glow she achieved from long days in the Portuguese countryside.
With her signature blonde locks cascading over her shoulders, the photo captured her effortless charm.
Captivating In A Sheer Cover-Up
Dunne took a moment to showcase her versatility, donning a sheer cover-up over a simple yet striking bikini.
The see-through fabric draped elegantly over her figure, creating a mesmerizing contrast between mystery and allure. The way she carried herself in the photo made it clear—she’s a natural in front of the camera.
Exuding Confidence In A Bold Monochrome Look
In a nod to her first SI shoot, Dunne also rocked a striking monochrome swimsuit that played up her athletic frame.
The photo exuded power and grace, serving as a reminder of the hard work and dedication that has propelled her to where she is today. With a confident stance and a piercing gaze, she owned the moment completely.
Embracing The Spotlight And Inspiring Others
While Dunne has achieved massive success as a gymnast, social media star, and businesswoman, she hasn’t always had an easy road. Speaking to ESPN, she opened up about the pressure of being in the public eye from such a young age.
“I struggled, especially at first, with the amount of eyes on me,” she admitted. “I was 18 years old when everything changed, and I felt like I couldn’t breathe, I felt like I couldn’t make a mistake. But something you learn on social media is you will get hate, and you will get people that are bitter towards you, especially when you have success. But I think that having the eyes on me has been such a blessing in my life, and I feel like it’s translated over into eyes on the sport of gymnastics, which was a huge deal to me.”
