Ashley Graham Wears a Latex Turtleneck and Satin Coat to Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue Party

Ashley Graham's Valentine's Day look was a major paradox in the best way. At the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue launch party in New York City, the supermodel wore an all-pink look that included a satin trench coat and a latex turtleneck. Yes, you read that correctly. For this look, specifically, she used the iridescent overcoat to tone down the Catwoman vibes of her top, but still — a latex turtleneck? Spoiler alert: she rocked it.

Ashley's reasons for attending the launch, uh, stretches beyond wanting to wear an amazing outfit. She actually made history in 2016 when she became the first self-described "curve model" to grace the cover of the swimsuit issue. Since then, she has continued to break barriers in the industry with her new Revlon campaign and as an advocate for body positivity.

While Ashley's career and style inspiration are incredible, her latex top is not for the faint of heart. Latex rubber clothing is restrictive and tends to make you sweat. (Add a turtleneck cut on top of that, and you've basically got your own portable heating system from the chin down.) If you're willing to risk it, however, the middle of winter when the temperatures are cooler might just be the time to try it out for yourself.
