Following Tuesday night’s 20th birthday episode of Dancing With The Stars, only six celebrities remain as one final themed night—honoring beloved icon, Prince—is slated before the show’s 3-hour finale on Nov. 25. 2025 SI Swimsuit models Jordan Chiles and Alix Earle, as well as Elaine Hendrix and Whitney Leavitt, join Dylan Efron and Robert Irwin as the six contestants who are still in the running for the coveted mirror ball trophy.

Today, we are eagerly awaiting their fate, following up the series’ latest episode—which celebrated two decades of the long-standing program—with a blast from the past ourselves. Check out these archival SI Swimsuit looks that parallel the on-stage ensembles from DWTS’s final ladies.

Seven years after Brinkley Cook hit the shoreline, Hall did the same on the coast of Boca Raton. The hues of her triangle swimsuit also mirrored Hendrix’s evening look.

Whitney Leavitt

Leavitt and Ballas’s samba fittingly took over the internet during the show’s TikTok-themed night on Sept. 30. The MomTok member paired high-waisted fringe pants with a black bra top—both covered in bling.

Our minds also went back to Graham’s 2017 photo shoot in Fiji, where she sported a balconette-style top that effortlessly matched Leavitt’s—not to mention it was also crystal-embellished.

Alix Earle

Earle got a near-perfect score during Rock & Roll Hall of Fame night while sporting this all-leather ensemble. Our first-ever digital cover model ultimately received a 39/40 for the Paso Doble that night, and notched a 40/40 this week for her Foxtrot routine.

We’d pair with...

For Wicked Night on Oct. 21, Chiles channeled her inner Elphaba in a sheer long-sleeve ensemble, speckled with emerald detailing. The 2025 SI Swimsuit cover model ultimately earned a trio of 10s for her Rumba that evening, for a near-perfect score of 39/40.
