Sports Illustrated swimsuit model Ellie Thumann took to social media to show off an “angelic” dress that was so beautiful she said she “never” wanted to take it off.
The backless stunner of a dress is a semi-sheer confection, featuring diaphanous layers in the front of the top and a to-the-floor skirt.
“Never want to take this off,” Thumann captioned the Sunday, March 1 TikTok share. “Back of the dress is so good,” she wrote over the video, which featured her peeking over her shoulder and shaking her perfect blonde hair. “Need to stand like this the whole evening.”
The model, 24, did not say why she was all dressed up.
“It’s so angelic,” raved one fan.
“You are my fav influencer,” gushed another.
“Okay but how about the flawless hair??” said a third.
“Beauty 🔥,” wrote a fourth.
“Slay 💅💅💅,” added a fifth.

Thumann has appeared in the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue three times. After taking a year off, the popular influencer announced in September that she was returning to modeling.
The jet-setter did, however, hit the runway once during her sabbatical — for the Sports Illustrated Runway Show that closed out Miami’s spring Swim Week. Also walking in the show were the 2025 cover stars (and gymnastics phenoms) Livvy Dunne and Jordan Chiles, plus models including Xandra Pohl, golfer Brooks Koepka’s wife Jena Sims, Gronk’s girlfriend Camille Kostek, Denise Bidot and fitness influencer Katie Austin.
