SI Swimsuit Open Casting Call Top 15: Michelle Vidal

It's that time of year again! SI Swimsuit Casting Call season is upon us, and you're in for a real treat.

For the first time ever, we held an open casting call to find our next big star. After receiving thousands of Instagram submissions from women around the world, we invited 35 finalists to SI's Brooklyn offices for an in-person interview and photo shoot. From there, it wasn't easy, but we narrowed down the list our Top 15, who made history during Miami Swim Week as they walked the runway in SI's first branded swimwear show. 

So how about we get to know your Top 15 a little better? First up is curve model Michelle Vidal!

This gorgeous Miami native has been modeling for the last five years and loves nothing more than a day of shooting on the beach in a barely-there bikini or luxe one-piece. When Michelle isn't on the road for work, you can find her taking a challenging Pilates class or dreaming of another life as a musician!

Here's one of our favorite #SISwimSearch moments with Michelle:
