An Inside Look At Iris Kendall’s Miami Swim Week
The Love Island bombshell had a packed schedule of parties, shows, and glam appointments.
Iris Kendall was practically made to be at Miami Swim Week — the Love Island USA Season 7 finalist is a beach girl through-and-through. During her time in the villa, she became known for her perfectly glowy tan, extensive bikini collection, and iconic pout. One year and one season of Beyond The Villa later, Kendall is still a popular tastemaker, so it’s no surprise that the Los Angeles native made her way to Florida for the influencer-favorite summer fashion extravaganza in late May.
Throughout Miami Swim Week, Kendall was front-and-center at South Beach’s best events, parties, and brand appearances. Whether she was hitting the runway at the Little Lighthouse Foundation x Ema Savahl show or stopping by the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit beach club party (where she ran into fellow it girls Gia Giudice from Next Gen NYC and Mayci Neeley from Mormon Wives), Kendall made the most of her trip — and she’s got the photos to prove it. Plus, she made a special stop at Little Lighthouse Foundation, a South Florida-based non-profit, to volunteer, with her boyfriend TJ Palma in tow.
Below, Kendall gives a behind-the-scenes look at her glamorous trip to Miami, from glam room shots to morning matcha selfies.

A Runway Show Fitting & Some Volunteering
Had to bring all of my favorite shoes with me for a week in Miami!
Straight from the flight to a fitting with the one and only Ema Savahl.
Before the chaos of swim week officially kicked off, I spent my night at the Little Lighthouse Foundation’s story hour with the cutest kids. Definitely one of the most meaningful parts of my trip ❤️

The Sports Illustrated Beach Party
One thing about swim week is that you’re going to run into everyone! So much fun seeing Gia at the Sports Illustrated beach party.
Glam touch ups in between events. Swim Week really is non-stop!
All smiles with my girls at the Sports Illustrated welcome party.

A Glam Day Before The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Show
Had the most relaxing morning at the spa… and no great spa day is complete without a matcha.
Saturday night’s glam… my team ate.
All smiles before heading to the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit show! This is one of my favorite looks from all weekend — you can never go wrong with wearing florals in Miami.
