Myla Dalbesio Is Back as a 2019 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Model
We're excited to announce Myla Dalbesio's return as a 2019 Sports Illsutrated Swimsuit model! Myla's SI Swimsuit journey started in 2017 in Curaçao, and she's been shooting with us ever since!
Hailing from Racine, Wisconsin, Myla has many accomplishments, but she's perhaps best known for speaking up on issues about feminism, self-esteem and body positivity. Whether she's sharing on Instagram or in an essay on our website, Myla is never afraid to speak her mind.
In an piece she penned earlier this year called, "I'm a Swimsuit Model. I'm a Feminist. Deal With It," she stated, "Let me just repeat what I have said time and again: Body autonomy is one of the core tenets of the feminist movement. So who is going to tell me what I can and can’t do with my body, inside of a magazine or out? No one."
