The clip, which has since received support from the likes of Jasmine Sanders , Kelsey Merritt , Hayley Kalil and Camille Kostek , gives a glimpse into Bloom's bikinis and one-pieces for the photo shoot. Her looks range of plunging black bathing suits and rust-colored one-pieces to string bikinis with mesh coverups.
"The idea that Sports Illustrated Swimsuit has chosen me to be a part of this huge moment tells me that I deserve to be cherished and that what I represent as a woman should never be taken fro granted, regardless of my unique circumstances," Bloom says in a statement released on Sports Illustrated Swimsuit 's Instagram page.

So: Do you feel confident and strong in a string bikini? Go for it. Do you feel that way in a burkini and a hijab? Halima Aden does, and this year she’s the rst woman to wear them in the Swimsuit Issue. Does a swimsuit still make you feel gorgeous 36 years after your first SI appearance?
