Alix Earle Turns Heads in Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Return
Alix Earle is back in the spotlight, and wow, is she turning up the heat! After joining the ranks of iconic models, the 24-year-old TikTok sensation returns to the illustrious *Sports Illustrated Swimsuit* issue, and you won’t want to miss her sizzling looks. Announcing the feature via Instagram on February 17, 2025, Earle is set to appear in the magazine’s May 2025 edition, sporting some seriously hot bikinis.
First up in her lineup was a striking Lybethras Manu set—think ivory crochet triangle top equipped with glamorous reflective gold straps and matching string bottoms for just the right amount of flair. And like any fashionista knows, accessories are key; Earle completed her look with a stunning gold body chain that beautifully accentuated her curves and a statement necklace boasting a chic stone pendant.
Behind the lens is none other than Yu Tsai, capturing Earle’s glamorous angles as she posed at Jamaica’s Round Hill Hotel & Villas. With the help of celebrity makeup artist Jodie Boland, Earle’s glam game was on point—imagine bronzy eyeshadow that embraced her sun-kissed skin, all paired with rosy cheeks, luscious lashes, and glossy lips that practically beckoned you to join her. And hairstylist Paul Norton ensured her golden hair was on fleek with soft curls that flowed effortlessly.
But wait, there’s more! Earle also rocked a fierce black Vesey halter top with matching thong bottoms, adding a flirty twist to her overall aesthetic. She sauntered down the dock, draped in a chic black bathrobe, before turning to give the camera a jaw-dropping spin. Talk about a statement look!
Earle’s boyfriend, NFL star Braxton Berrios, along with fellow SI Swimsuit models and friends, were quick to hype her up in the comments section, echoing the excitement surrounding her triumphant return. “Let’s go!!” Berrios cheered, while fellow model and former classmate Xandra Pohl chimed in with “Yayyy <3.” This isn’t Earle’s first rodeo with *SI Swimsuit*; she debuted on the magazine’s first-ever digital cover back in May 2024, rocking a metallic swim set and stylish shades that screamed summer fun. With her undeniable charm and killer style, Alix Earle is proving she’s not just a social media star but a bona fide modeling sensation. We can’t wait to see where her journey takes her next.
