Nautica has tapped top collegiate gymnast Olivia “Livvy” Dunne as its latest brand ambassador. The elite athlete and influencer will also be the face of the brand’s women’s sportswear campaign.
In the campaign, she will wear looks from the spring line, created by Nautica’s women’s licensee G-III Apparel Group, in images featuring open skies and stylized gymnastics equipment.
Dunne said she has been a fan of the brand since she was a child. “Nautica perfectly aligns with my lifestyle because it values confidence, versatility and style.”
Dunne is a senior at Louisiana State University and in 2014 was the youngest athlete in the U.S. to qualify as a junior international elite. By 2017, she earned a spot on the USA National Team and was selected to represent the U.S. at The City of Jesolo Trophy in Italy, where she and her teammates won gold in the All-Around competition. In 2020, Dunne began her collegiate career at LSU on a full athletic scholarship and during her freshman season was named WCGA All-American, WCGA Academic All-American and First-Year SEC Academic Honor Roll Honoree.
“We’re excited to welcome Livvy Dunne to the Nautica team,” said Stefani Fleurant, senior vice president marketing – lifestyle, at Authentic Brands Group, owner of Nautica. “Livvy’s dedication to her craft and ability to inspire millions aligns perfectly with Nautica women’s sportswear — a line designed for women who are active, confident and embrace a lifestyle that seamlessly merges fashion with performance.”
Dunne is the most followed college athlete with 12 million followers on Instagram and TikTok.
