Before she was a stunning WAG to San Francisco 49ers quarterback Christian McCaffrey, Olivia Culpo was an A-list actress and model — and even landed the coveted cover of the iconic Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue.
But the latest throwback shared by SI Swim might be her most sizzling yet. In the photo, the bronzed star flaunts a chiseled bikini body in a tiny maroon string bikini by Toxic Sadie.
The share — to X (formerly Twitter) on Tuesday, September 30 — was so steamy that the brand didn’t even write much of a caption, opting for only a “Olivia Culpo 2019 gallery” mic drop.
The caption did link to an article on Sports Illustrated Swimsuit showing all of the former Miss Universe’s photos, taken by Josie Clough on Kangaroo Island, Australia. In the pics, Culpo stunned in one gorgeous look after the next.

The carefree model even posed topless with a snake in several of the images.
In 2020, Culpo — along with Canadian model Kate Bock and American model Jasmine Sanders — made the magazine’s cover.
