Jasmine Sanders was photographed by Yu Tsai in Bali.

Jasmine Sanders made her SI Swimsuit debut in 2019 when she posed for James Macari in Costa Rica. She was later named Rookie of the Year. The following year, the German-American model landed the cover of the magazine—alongside Kate Bock and Olivia Culpo—after she was photographed by Yu Tsai in Bali.

Sanders has returned to the SI Swimsuit Issue every year since her initial feature. She worked with Tsai again in ’21, this time in Tampa, Fla., while her most recent magazine photo shoot took place in Belize, again with the same photographer.

Known as “Golden Barbie” to her loyal social media fans, Sanders has nearly six million followers on Instagram, where she shares everything from swimwear pics to glam red carpet outfits. In addition to SI Swimsuit, Sanders has worked with notable brands like Victoria’s Secret, Savage X Fenty and Moschino.

Sanders told ET Canada she felt “ecstatic” about her magazine cover reveal.

“The emotions are so high,” she said at the time. “It’s so crazy and honestly I’m just really really happy that it’s getting such a great response and it seems as if it’s doing everything that it did for me and just kind of shining a new little sparkle of light on the world right now.”

Below are 10 of our favorite photos from Sanders’s 2020 photo shoot in Bali.
