In a recent interview with Vogue, 2023 SI Swimsuit Issue cover star Martha Stewart divulged everything from her wardrobe essentials to her most important tidbit of fashion advice.

The Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia founder, who at 81 became the oldest person to ever grace the cover of the annual magazine, also shared her top tip when it comes to shopping for swimwear.

“Flattering, but not too tight and not too revealing,” she told the outlet, noting that she gravitates toward one-piece options from Eres and turns to Cynthia Rowley for rash guards.

Stewart posed for Ruven Afanador in the Dominican Republic for the historic SI Swimsuit Issue cover, and donned several unforgettable looks. She rocked a zip-up silver-and-black one-piece by Body Glove, a red Norma Kamali number with a plunging neckline, a white one-piece by Monday Swimwear and more.

“I thought, ‘This is kind of historic’ and ‘I better look really good because I want other women to feel that they could also be on the cover of Sports Illustrated,’” she told SI Swimsuit while on location. “But I’m telling you, it’s very inspiring to take a look at a [picture by photographer] Ruven [Afanador] of Martha Stewart in the ocean here at Casa de Campo and see something really gorgeous.”
