Hannah Ferguson made her SI Swimsuit debut in 2014, double-dipping for two separate features in St. Lucia with photographer Walter Iooss Jr. That year, as part of the franchise’s 50th anniversary, Ferguson posed in a bodypainted re-creation of the fishnet suit Cheryl Tiegs famously wore in the 1978 issue.

Ferguson appeared in the magazine three more times. In 2015, she left the beach and took a road trip down Route 66 for a unique and stunning photo shoot with photographer Ben Morris and models Sara Sampaio, Ariel Meredith and Ashley Smith.

“When I found out that I was coming back for this next issue, they said we were shooting along Route 66, so I thought that was going to be cool, you know, doing a road trip with the whole crew,” Ferguson said in a video about the shoot. “It’s in the South and I’m from Texas so it’s right up my alley.”

The following year, Ferguson posed for photographer James Macari in Turks & Caicos. Her most recent photo shoot for the magazine was in Fiji in 2017 with photographer Yu Tsai.

The now 30-year-old model has done catalog work for Victoria’s Secret, been featured in David Yurman advertisements, and posed for covers of Harper’s Bazaar Greece and Elle France.
