As a two-time SI Swimsuit model, XANDRA is no stranger to our runway show at Swim Week—in fact, that’s how she got her start with the brand. Serving as the DJ of the 2023 show, the Ohio native was shocked to be invited by the team to also walk the runway. She was then asked to appear in the magazine for the 2024 issue as a rookie, and she returned to the fold this year for her sophomore feature.
As a talented musician and content creator, the 24-year-old rose to fame through fun “get ready with me” TikToks and vlogs of her everyday life. While a student at the University of Miami, she got experience DJing parties and has now performed on major stages for festivals like EDC Orlando and Lollapalooza. She landed a spot on the 2025 Forbes 30 Under 30 list and has worked with big-name brands such as Coach, YSL Beauty and more.
SI Swimsuit returns to Swim Week this year for events on Friday, May 30 and Saturday, May 31 at the W South Beach. With activations, pop-ups and parties, the brand, partners and models deliver yet another unforgettable weekend. XANDRA’s 2025 Swim Week appearance marks her third consecutive year walking the SI Swimsuit Runway Show.

XANDRA rocked three separate swimsuits on the runway, each embracing a different aesthetic. These included a black and white polka dot string bikini from Ola Vida, a maroon two-piece with white detailing from Understated Leather ($99)—accessorized with a cowboy hat from Lack of Color—and a cheetah print two-piece ensemble with pieces from Andi Bagus and Baben.
