Alix Earle poses in pearl-covered bikini for Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue 2026
Alix Earle is a real gem.
The influencer, 25, is back for her third year in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue. The glossy revealed their first slate of models Tuesday, which saw Earle joined by vet Camille Kostek as well as Achieng Agutu, Penny Lane and Meredith Mickelson.
The group was lensed by Ruven Afanador in Botswana, with the “Dancing With the Stars” alum, 25, modeling a bikini by Audrey Blake.
The teeny top is covered in 1,000 real pearls and crystal beads, per the brand’s Instagram; she paired the style with Mikoh linen shorts and knee-high Seychelles lace-up boots.
Earle made history as the first-ever Sports Illustrated Swimsuit digital cover star in 2024 and, the following year, made her debut in the print magazine.
She wore a bikini made of another unconventional material in 2025, showing off her curves in a crocheted piece by Lybethras and a glitzy body chain by Jacquie Aiche x Tropic of C.
It’s been a blockbuster year for the University of Miami alum; not only did she place second on “DWTS,” she also landed a Netflix reality show.
She’s upped the ante in the fashion world, too; most recently she wore a $48,000 Gucci coat and attended the Vanity Fair Oscars Party 2026 in stunning vintage Bob Mackie.
At the star-studded event, she was certainly on the prowl after being linked to Tom Brady. When asked who she was looking to take a selfie with inside the bash, she had a pointed response.
“Honestly, no one,” Earle said. “I’m just, like, maybe I’ll get someone’s number or something?”
After seeing her Sports Illustrated spread, we’re sure she’ll have some callers.
