Juliette Porter’s Swimsuits Featured In Sports Illustrated
Siesta Key star Juliette Porter founded JMP The Label in 2021, and now the swimsuit brand is being featured in the latest issue of Sports Illustrated.
Juliette Porter has more to celebrate than the success of Siesta Key, as the star's swimsuit line was featured in the latest issue of Sports Illustrated. The reality star founded the brand in 2021 and was unfortunately met with a lot of skepticism from her castmates, including her ex-boyfriend Sam Logan. No one on the MTV reality series believed Juliette was capable of going after her dreams and running her own business. The star was accused of living off of Sam's money and seemed comfortable letting her ex-boyfriend fund her life, not needing a career of her own. Her desire to start her brand also created a rift between her and her former best friend, Kelsey Owens.
Kelsey also had plans to start a swimsuit line and felt that Juliette was creating competition for her. However, as Juliette has seen a lot of success with her brand, Kelsey seems to have put her plans on hold. The JMP The Label founder proved all of her co-stars wrong in the current season of Siesta Key when she moved out of Sam's billionaire mansion and into her own apartment to focus on herself and her career. Juliette also began traveling to L.A. to be on set during photoshoots and make sure everything went according to plan. Her Siesta Key co-stars have since stopped accusing her of not being hardworking or capable of success.
If Juliette hadn't already proven her castmates wrong, she surely has now since JMP The Label was featured in Sports Illustrated. Juliette shared a page from the issue on her Instagram Story, showing off model Victoria Vesce wearing a pink two-piece listed on the JMP website as the Vegas Top and Rio Bottom. She also reshared Victoria's Instagram Story, which the model captioned, "Amazing suit by @julietteporter @jmpthelabel." The latest issue of the magazine features three different covers with cover stars Yumi Nu, Maye Musk, Ciara and The Kardashians star Kim Kardashian.
The Sports Illustrated feature marks her second big accomplishment this year as the reality star was also featured in Forbes in March. In honor of International Women's Month, Juliette made the list of 16 Female Founders Taking The Fashion Industry By Storm. The Siesta Key star was praised for her ability to build a large social media following as well as provide women with swimsuits that make them feel confident in their skin. The JMP The Label website features female models of all shapes, sizes and races in order to build an inclusive brand that all women can feel comfortable wearing.
Juliette has certainly shut up her Siesta Key critiques with this tremendous accomplishment. Despite all their cynicism, the star has proven that she takes her career very seriously, and she has no plans to stop aiming for the stars. Maybe her determination will inspire her Siesta Key castmates to go after their dreams instead of trying to tear hers down. Either way, Juliette has proven herself to be more than anyone credited her to be.
