Sports Illustrated has officially turned a new page, not only releasing a trio of covers for its 2016 Swimsuit Issue, but highlighting three beautiful women of varying body types.
Ashley Graham, Ronda Rousey, and Hailey Clauson each have their own individual — and completely gorgeous — cover.
“The three covers of Hailey, Ronda and Ashley celebrate the new SI Swimsuit,” the magazine’s assistant managing editor, MJ Day, said. “All three women are beautiful, sexy, and strong. Beauty is not cookie cutter. Beauty is not ‘one size fits all.’ Beauty is all around us and that became especially obvious to me while shooting and editing this year’s issue.”
MMA star Rousey’s appearance in the magazine was expected; an image from her photo shoot was leaked in January and gained quite a bit of buzz. After all, the 29-year-old was wearing nothing but body paint made to look like a one-piece swimsuit.

Clauson, 20, knows a little something about that; the high-fashion model appeared in the 2015 issue wearing a teeny red, white, and blue painted-on bikini. Day described her as “the definition of a modern bombshell.”

Graham, 28, is also featured in an ad campaign in the magazine revealed earlier this month. The plus-size model (who prefers to be called “curvy sexalicious”) is a rookie this year.
“Ashley commands your attention in her photographs,” Day explained. “She owns her sexiness in a way that every woman should. Her confidence is contagious.”
