Olandria Carthen is dressing for brighter days ahead.
The “Love Island USA” star, 28, is officially single following her split from co-star Nic Vansteenberghe — and she marked the occasion in a slit-to-the-waist Tom Ford look.
Carthen posted the tangerine carousel Saturday, one day before Vansteenberghe confirmed the breakup on his subscribers-only TikTok. “The rumors are true,” he wrote.
“Pressure makes diamonds 😉🧡,” Carthen captioned the photos, which find her striking a series of cheeky poses, showing off glowing skin and mile-long legs.
The asymmetric draped jersey look ($1,393) is technically a top, though the reality star styled it with only Tom Ford gold Padlock stiletto sandals ($1,420) below the waist.
Styling duo The Reismans, who also work with Angel Reese and Flo Milli, added stacked bangles, chunky rings and gold hoops by Alexis Bittar.
The pair has been in Carthen’s corner throughout her high-fashion rise, pulling the front-row look for Robert Wun’s couture show in Paris earlier this year and her custom Pajtim Raci gown at the Vanity Fair Oscar party.
The carousel racked up co-signs from Carthen’s famous friends. Chloe Bailey replied, “diamond indeed 😍,” Winnie Harlow riffed on the caption with “& bust pipes 😍😍,” and Olympic rugby player Ilona Maher suggested she planned to make the photos her new screensaver.
Carthen and Vansteenberghe, 25, decided to part ways a year after leaving the villa together, a source told People on Wednesday, citing distance and packed schedules.
The two became fan favorites after pairing up in the back half of Season 7 and finished as runners-up.
She had defended the romance as recently as June, telling Cosmopolitan she had no interest in performing it for the internet.
Carthen has built a fashion career in the year since, including a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit rookie debut in March and front row seats in New York, Paris and Milan.
