Madisin Rian made a splash during her 2023 rookie year photo shoot with SI Swimsuit. The St. Louis native, who is best known for being the face of Giorgio Armani Beauty, has also been featured in modeling campaigns for Polo Ralph Lauren, Stuart Weitzman, Christian Cowan and other major brands.

“What I’m doing is definitely, in my opinion, making a statement and changing a narrative for just women in general, but especially Black women in fashion,” Rian said about growing her platform and her decision to shave her head. “To have this platform to also be the face of Armani Beauty, it’s like a duty. It’s a responsibility for me to represent for so many women out there that feel the same way and to free them of judgment or any pressure that anyone may have on them.”

Rian’s Barbiecore-inspired photo shoot involved several super fun, flirty and colorful looks, as well as textured one-pieces, color-blocking and pastels.

Swimwear and glamorous evening wear featuring mesh panels and cut-outs have been trending this year—both styles are an easy and edgy way to tease a little skin while still leaving something up to the imagination.
