There’s a certain kind of star who just… gets it. They understand that a swimsuit isn’t merely for swimming; it’s an entire mood. Jessie Murph, in her debut for the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit digital issue, fully embraces this philosophy, revealing a new dimension of her artistry. The singer-songwriter, photographed by Derek Kettela for the July 2025 release, unveils a series of looks that are both sweet and subtly defiant, perfectly encapsulating her appeal.
Jessie Murph on the cover
She is a vision of playful romance in an off-the-shoulder, white cherry-print top, paired with low-slung red bottoms. The look, a delightful nod to vintage Americana, feels fresh and utterly charming. Her hair, styled in a messy-chic updo, and a soft, natural makeup palette complete the ensemble, allowing her genuine, confident gaze to take center stage. It’s a look that feels both aspirational and entirely attainable.
In another stunning shot, she trades the playful print for a more classic, high-glamour moment. Here, she wears a simple, yet elegant black bikini, her long, dark hair flowing around her shoulders. She is framed by lush, green foliage and a rustic stone railing, her oversized sunglasses adding a touch of old-Hollywood mystique. The contrast between her classic beauty and the wild, untamed backdrop creates a sense of effortless power.
The shoot also includes a striking moment in a textured, pink bikini, with Murph leaning against a metal ladder leading into the water. Her look is both nostalgic and current, a testament to her unique style. Each shot is a different facet of her personality—from the fun-loving girl-next-door to a confident, alluring siren. This is Jessie Murph in her element, and she’s a star on the rise, ready for her pop breakthrough.
