In an Instagram post captioned, “I think I know that girl from somewhere,” 21-year-old Dunne beamed as she pointed up to her promotional photos for clothing brand Nautica.
Posing in high-waisted jeans, a fitted crop top, and a long white jacket, Dunne’s stunning shots drew a huge number of responses on Instagram from friends, family, and fans alike.
“This can NAUT be real,” her sister Julz jokingly commented, to which she responded, “Believe it or NAUT… it is.”
“I think I recognize her too,” responded LSU teammate Savannah Schoenherr.

“Big time or whatevaaa,” added fellow Tigers star Alexis Jeffrey.
Another fan noted the thin appearance of Dunne’s arm on the billboard, to which she explained, “It’s curved around the bend of the building… trust me I’m not skipping arm day.”
While other comments from fans ranged from, “Livvy is a goddess,” to “What a queen! Congrats Livvy.”
Dunne announced her new collaboration earlier in February, sharing a series of eye-catching promotional photos modeling Nautica clothing.
“So excited to be the face of the Nautica Spring ’24 collection,” she wrote in the caption.
While in New York, Dunne also took the opportunity to enjoy a delicious-looking Italian meal, sharing photos of her enjoying her meal on Instagram.
This marks the latest in an ever-growing list of deals the LSU senior can add to her burgeoning portfolio.
The nation’s highest-earning student-athlete in women’s college sports, Dunne has taken full advantage of the Name, Image, and Likeness deals now permitted by the NCAA.
As such, her annual value has rocketed to an impressive $3.5 million annually, as per On3.
This comes thanks to deals with brands including ESPN, Forever 21, Motorola, and Body Armor.
Dunne has also modeled for Sports Illustrated’s Swimsuit Edition twice.
Much of her success has come thanks to her incredible social media presence.
During her time at LSU, Dunne has grown her total following to 12.4 million across all platforms.
Her time in Baton Rouge has also been rewarding on a personal level, having met her now boyfriend Paul Skenes at the school.
Skenes was selected first overall in the 2023 MLB Draft by the Pittsburgh Pirates, making his pro debut in August.
