Olivia Dunne, commonly known as Livvy, is one of two athletes in this year's annual magazine and is currently the highest-paid female college athlete in the country. For her SI Swimsuit debut, the LSU gymnast decided to trade her purple and gold leotard for swimsuits highlighting a dark and moody aesthetic.

“When people look at my Sports Illustrated photos, I want them to take away that you can have the best of both worlds—and you can be a strong independent woman while doing it all,” Dunne said. “You can be an athlete, you can be in school and you can do modeling.”

Dunne embodied Wednesday Addams, the main character of Netflix’s Wednesday, in Puerto Rico. The SI Swimsuit team brought the character to life through the gymnast by styling a darker color palette, cut-out swimsuits, vintage T-shirts and plaid, providing a British punk aesthetic throughout the stylings.
