Normani for Sports Illustrated

For the 2026 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit digital cover, Normani wore the Joely set in metallic gold.

On set, Normani described the experience as "stepping into her divine femininity". The result is a series of images that feel strong, fluid, and quietly powerful.

Photographed along the shoreline at South Seas Resort on Captiva Island, the images focus on movement, light, and natural texture, allowing the silhouette to speak for itself.

The Joely set is defined by a sculpted halter shape and hand-braided detailing, finished in a luminous gold that is designed to reflect against the skin.
