Olivia Dunne's Simple Attire

The college athlete rocked an outfit that included a tight black top and gray shorts. Her upper garment boasted thin shoulder straps highlighting her sculpted arms. The plunging neckline bared ample skin around her décolletage area, while the length of the piece showcased a glimpse of her taut tummy.

The bottoms rose up to her belly button, obscuring it from view. Its skintight fit also emphasized the gymnast's curves, particularly her perky backside.

For the occasion, Dunne seemingly opted for a no-makeup look and pulled up her blonde locks into a ponytail.

Olivia Dunne Shows Off One Of Her Talents

The clip began by showing Dunne in an indoor location that looked like the Tigers' locker room. She stood at a side angle while wearing only her white ankle socks on the carpeted floor.

The 21-year-old looked into the lens and mouthed "Leggo" from Chris Brown's "Look At Me Now" song. She lifted her right leg and planted her foot on the wall in front of her before twisting her body to face the opposite direction.
