Mady Dewey’s initial 2023 SI Swimsuit Issue photos have been revealed, and the brand’s fellow models could not be more supportive of the rookie.

The official SI Swimsuit Instagram account shared one of four exclusive images on the social media platform in a joint post with the 25-year-old model on Wednesday. Dewey, who was declared the winner of last year’s Swim Search open casting call, donned a gorgeous blue-and-orange crochet bikini top and matching bottoms by RUTT Australia. She posed for photographer Ben Watts in Puerto Rico.

Dewey’s brunette locks were worn loose and casually tossed over one shoulder, courtesy of hairstylist Anthony Cristiano. Makeup artist Bryan Zaragoza opted for fresh and (no pun intended) dewy skin.

“Yesss mady!!!!👏,” 2022 co-Rookie of the Year Katie Austin applauded.

“🙌🏾 @madydewey this is your time to shine!!! ✨✨✨,” Ashley Callingbull, who became the first Indigenous First Nations woman to be featured in the annual SI Swimsuit Issue last year, said.

“MY BABE OHHHHH MY GOD MY BEST FRIEND IS SO HOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” exclaimed 2022 Swim Search finalist Sarafina El-Badry Nance.

“Absolutely stunning @madydewey,” three-time SI Swimsuit model Tanaye White declared.

“UNREAL BEAUTY❤️❤️❤️,” gushed 2023 SI Swimsuit model Brooks Nader.

“😍😍,” wrote 2023 SI Swimsuit rookie Ellie Thumann.
