Jordan Chiles has joined Sports Illustrated Swimsuit as an athlete model for the 2025 edition. The two-time Olympian is one of the most accomplished gymnasts in the world and is fresh off winning a gold medal at the Paris Olympics.
Chiles started gymnastics at the age of six and made her elite debut at the 2013 American Classic. She impressed on her debut, winning a bronze medal in the all-around competition. She made her senior debut at the 2017 America Classic, finishing fourth and fifth on uneven bars and balance beam, respectively.
While she struggled to make the team for the World Championships in her first few years, the 23-year-old rose to prominence following the 2020 Tokyo Olympics after winning a silver medal. She won three world medals between the 2020 and 2024 Olympics, including a gold.

Jordan Chiles makes New York Fashion Week debut in shiny silver and blue floral-patterned leotard-style look
Jordan Chiles made her New York Fashion Week debut following the conclusion of the 2024 Paris Olympics. She walked the runway at the Kim Shui Spring 2025 ready-to-wear show, donning a shiny silver and blue floral-patterned leotard-style outfit.
The gymnast boats an eccentric style and believes fashion is one of the ways to express it.
“It all just makes me feel more confident. It makes me feel like I am who I am. It makes me feel like I can just enjoy my personality and be something that God created me to be, and it was not to be shy, it wasn’t to be embarrassed of who I was, but to actually embrace who I am. And fashion is how I can showcase that,” Chiles told Harper's Bazar.
The 23-year-old was busy with the Gold Over America Tour following the end of the Olympic Games, and after ending the tour on November 4, she will be looking to enjoy her time off before starting the preparations for the 2025 World Championships.
