The SI Swimsuit model wanted to make sure that there were ample photos.

Sorry Rob Gronkowski, you might be one of the greatest tight ends in NFL history, but Camille Kostek saves her best dresses for us.

The SI Swimsuit model posted a BTS video of herself posing on the red carpet at Miami Swim Week in a stunning colorful translucent long-sleeve midi dress designed by Kim Shiu.

“I bought this dress for a date night in Hawaii with Rob,” the 30-year-old wrote. “When it came in I immediately tried it on and fell in love. I decided to save it for an event I would be photographed at instead.”

Her gorgeous effortless glam was done by makeup artist Stephanie Ruiz and perfect beachy blond waves were created by The Clyque

“Figured the photos captured in this dress would come out better than the photos he would have taken on our date night 😅,” Kostek added. “I’d say this mission was accomplished 😂👏📸.”

Miami Swim Week in South Beach is not to be missed. The annual event features the newest swimwear collections from designers across the industry as well as the annual SI Swimsuit runway show, where models and and Swim Search finalists strut their stuff.

Joined on the catwalk by her husband, former NFL player Larry English, the swimwear designer and influencer also revealed that she is pregnant with her first child.
