Here’s the latest I can confirm about Sports Illustrated Swimsuit (SI Swimsuit) as of 2026:
- SI Swimsuit has continued expanding its digital strategy, launching digital issues to accompany the annual print issue. The first digital issue features Alix Earle and marks the brand’s foray into more frequent, deeper storytelling alongside the traditional yearly print edition.[2]
- Public attention in 2024–2025 highlighted prominent cover models and notable features, including 2025 cover reveals and ongoing coverage of athletes and celebrities participating in the SI Swimsuit franchise, signaling the brand’s emphasis on diversity and cross-platform storytelling.[3][2]
- There has been ongoing production activity and behind-the-scenes content shared by models and creators connected to SI Swimsuit, including recent YouTube and social media posts from individuals involved in shoots and cover announcements (e.g., Alix Earle’s posts about the SI Swim experience).[5]
If you want, I can narrow to:
- Specific year’s cover models and featured athletes
- Details on the digital issues rollout (timeline, formats, where to read)
- Recent SI Swim-related news from a particular outlet (e.g., Sports Illustrated, mainstream media, or entertainment press)
Would you like me to pull the very latest headlines from a specific outlet or compile a quick summary by year? I can also provide a brief overview of notable recent covers and the brand’s digital strategy.
