Entrepreneur and model Nicole Williams English posed for the 2023 SI Swimsuit Issue in Dominica while seven months pregnant. She’s only the second model in the history of the publication to do so (Katrina Scott was the first when she was photographed in St. Croix last year).

Williams English’s journey to the pages of SI Swimsuit has been an inspirational one: she and her husband, Larry English, have been very vocal about their IVF journey and even announced their pregnancy on the Miami Swim Week runway last summer. 

The Nia Lynn by Nicole Williams English founder traveled to Dominica with photographer Yu Tsai just two months before welcoming her daughter, India Moon, in January. She told SI Swimsuit that posing for the publication at this stage of life was an incredible moment.

“The fact that I’m actually a rookie and shooting while pregnant, it’s just really cool to know that my baby girl is going through this with me and that one day she’s gonna look back and see all these photos and know that she was shooting for SI with mama,” Williams English said.
