Brooks Nader’s Bikini in SI Swimsuit Photo Is Literally Held by Strings

Brooks Nader steps into new SI Swimsuit photos from Loreto, Baja California Sur, with a bikini that is almost all strings. The model’s 2026 image was photographed by James Macari, and Sports Illustrated confirmed the suit is by Andi Bagus against the rocky desert coastline in Mexico.

Have a look at Brooks Nader in a two-stringed bikini:

In the shot, Nader wears a deep brown triangle bikini with thin neck ties, slim underbust strings, and matching side-tie bottoms cut high on the hips. A pale shell-like medallion anchors the top, while windblown waves, bronzed glam, and a smoky eye keep the beach portrait polished instead of casual.

The SI Swimsuit moment also carries history. She joined the franchise in 2019 after winning Swim Search, has appeared every year since, landed a 2023 cover, and became an SI Swimsuit “legend” in the 60th-anniversary issue. That makes this her ninth straight shoot with the brand, and the 2026 issue is due on newsstands in May.

Fans reacted quickly. One wrote, “the hottest.” Another said, “STUNNING as ever!?” A third added, “VETERAN ??”
