Many of their other snaps showed Dunne partying on top of a float during the parade.
The pictures were shared on Instagram for her 5.3million followers on the social media platform.
She captioned the post: “Earned my beads”.
It is a tradition at Mardi Gras for women to flash their breasts during the parade and be thrown beads.
However, Dunne did add that she did not perform any such act as she joked: “Grandma if u see this I’m joking.”
Her fans flocked to the comment section as they hailed her looks.

‘Year five, baby’
Olivia Dunne has plenty of career options – but she’s not ready to give up on college just yet.
The superstar gymnast films commercials with Travis Kelce and has starred on the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit edition.
She has also supported pitcher boyfriend Paul Skenes during his red-hot debut season for the Pittsburgh Pirates.
But Dunne announced, “Dear LSU, These past four years have changed my life.
“There’s something about putting on a purple and gold leotard.
“There’s something about competing in front of 13,000 screaming Tiger fans.
“There’s something about being pushed by your coaches to do your very best.
“And there’s something about being part of a team that made school history.
“No matter how many opportunities come my way off the mat, there’s just something about LSU.
“And that’s why I’m here to say, I’m not Dunne yet. Here’s to Year Five, baby.”
One posted: “Mardi slay.”
A second wrote: “Mardi queen.”
A third commented: “I love the green dress.”
A fourth said: “Gorgeous.”
Another added: “Livvy looking amazing as always.”
She described the time as “One of the most fun nights of my life!”
Meanwhile, she recently told The U.S. Sun that she was in awe of Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce.
The pair recently teamed up to film a commercial energy drink sponsor Accelerator.
She said: “I’m business partners with Travis. It was awesome [shooting the commercial].
“He’s such a great guy and I respect him as an athlete as well.”
Dunne has recently returned for her fifth and final year at the I-10 at Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge.
She was a national champion with the Tigers in 2024.
Away from the gym, the stunning blonde has forged a successful modelling career and has featured in Sports Illustrated twice.
