'The right people will see your worth': Canadian influencer Sarah Nicole Landry gets emotional after walking Miami Swim Week runway

Sarah Nicole Landry is living one of her biggest dreams.

The Canadian influencer was amongst a range of content creators — including Lele Pons, Jilly Anais and Abbie Herbert — who walked Saturday evening's Sports Illustrated Swimsuit runway for Miami Swim Week. They joined 13 models, such as Hunter McGrady, Camille Kostek and Lauren Chan, at Miami Beach's W South Beach hotel on June 1, turning up the heat with stunning swimwear pieces.

On Sunday, Landry took to Instagram with a clip featuring herself walk down the runway wearing a pink and white gingham bikini with a wrap. Towards the end, she excitedly bumped hips with McGrady as she strutted off the platform. "The right people will see your worth. The rest don’t always deserve to," Landry began in the caption to her post.

"If it wasn't for women like [McGrady] living her life and knowing her worth, I don't know I would have ever come to see my own. ... It's not just that we live our own lives. It's showing others they can show up in their own lives, too." she added, capping off her post by thanking the magazine multiple times.

Fellow personalities and fans raved in the comments over Landry's achievement, with many noting she did a great job on the runway.

"My girl, you killed this. So grateful to have spent the weekend with you," penned McGrady.

"So happy for you! You crushed it!" added former "ET Canada" host Cheryl Hickey.

"I'm so proud of you! Way to go, Sarah," wrote Toronto-based talent manager Amy Jane Pearson.

"Tears in my eyes watching this. Spent years covering up my body. Hopefully we are seeing a shift and that's hugely down to beautiful people like you," one fan shared.

"Thank you for holding space for us, the regular women in this world, with bodies that have grown humans and been through things!" another chimed in.

Leading up to the runway, Landry posted lots of footage on social media of herself connecting with the models, celebrating at pool parties and walking the event's red carpet. She noted on her Instagram Stories this was "one of the biggest days" of her life and she was also going to be wearing two looks from her collaboration with Knix Swimwear.

"I feel like I'm going to think about this day and remember it for the rest of my life," she shared in one post prior to the fashion show. "So, I'm trying to just hold on to so much of that. I just feel like everyone is so encouraging and so hyping of each other. I don't know, we're all in this, we're all doing it together and there's something really special about that.

"My body is the kind of body that's going to move on the runway. She's going to jiggle, she's going to show herself. I'm excited to bring that. I'm excited to see what my runway feel and vibe is, while still being true to myself. I just want to be fierce and I want to be me."

Fellow Canadian Lauren Chan, who was one of the 13 models in the show, also took to Instagram on Saturday to note one of the dresses she wore for Miami Swim Week featured an important piece of Toronto history. Chan explained her look was custom made by Canadian fashion designer Mario Fugnitto, who travelled from Toronto to personally hand-deliver the garment fit the piece on site.

The black-and-white voile gown featured a photo taken during Toronto's first-ever "Gay Day Pride" picnic on Aug. 1, 1971 at Hanlan's Point. Chan shared she was "continuing last year's tradition" where she walked the runway holding a black handbag with the words "say gay" printed in bold white font.

"If you watch the show tonight, know that my energy is coming from a place of community," she penned in the caption to her post. "Hope you join me in kicking off Pride month with that same spirit of protest and joy!"
