Brooks Nader broke into the modeling industry back in 2019, when she won the SI Swim Search open casting call competition. Now she returns as one of its four cover models for the 2023 edition of the magazine.
Nader joins Megan Fox, Martha Stewart and Kim Petras as a cover model for the 2023 SI Swimsuit Issue. A total of 28 women are featured in this year’s edition.

Since Nader first appeared in the magazine four years ago, she has returned in every edition since. She candidly shared what her experience in the modeling industry has been like during that timeframe.

“Empowerment for me is putting myself out there, and I’ve dealt with rejection a million times over,” Nader told SI Swimsuit. “Dealing with rejection, moving on and keeping a positive attitude about it, and then it’s so much more worth it and empowering when you get the final yes.”
Nader’s photos were taken by James Macari at Cap Cana in the Dominican Republic. Nader’s star has risen considerably since her first days as an SI Swim model.
“I’ve grown so much over the years,” she said, and it’s clear this is still only the beginning for Nader—who likely hasn’t appeared in her last SI Swim edition.
