During her Elle photoshoot, the LSU gymnast, who is romantically involved with former LSU pitcher Paul Skenes, sported a series of chic ensembles.

Among them, her standout look featured a white halter dress, a distinctive creation by Christian Siriano valued at $4,200, making it a defining piece amid her stylish collection.

Olivia embraced a minimalist approach to accessories, adorning herself solely with a ring from Van Cleef & Arpels.

Her choice reflected a preference for a subtle yet refined style, complemented by a minimal glam aesthetic and a voluminous blowout. The result was an overall sophisticated and chic vibe that exuded elegance.

In an interview with Hurrdat Sports, she said, “It was surreal. I got off the phone and I screamed immediately and I called my mom and I was in disbelief.”
