Martha Stewart rocked the SI swimsuit cover at 81! She proved that there is no age limit when it comes to modeling. The lifestyle guru made history as the oldest swimsuit model ever after gracing the 2023 issue. Stewart was joined by Megan Fox, Kim Petras and Brooks Nader.
The Oldest SI Swimsuit Model Ever
The iconic lifestyle maven wore a plunging white Monday Swimwear suit with a super low-cut V-neckline that showed off ample cleavage in the shot. Hailing from Massachusetts, she complemented her suit with a vibrant yellow puffy jacket elegantly resting on her shoulders. Her shoulder-length blonde hair cascaded in voluminous waves, completing the striking look. Stewart says she was inspired to join the swimsuit issue because of other older models like Kathy Ireland and Elle Macpherson. She hopes her presence in the issue will inspire women of all ages to feel more comfortable with their bodies.
