Olympic champion Keely Hodgkinson left her fans stunned as she posed in an 'iconic' Nike corset during a photoshoot for her signature collection. The 24-year-old Team GB star, who won gold in the 800m at Paris 2024, has built a huge fanbase with nearly 700,000 Instagram followers. She signed a sponsorship deal with Nike and launched her own Keely collection, which includes the eye-catching corset featuring a zip from top to bottom and a lace for a figure-hugging fit.
Hodgkinson posted pictures of herself modelling the corset and a heartwarming snap with family at the launch in her hometown of Manchester. She captioned the post: "Details. An evening in my hometown for the KH collection, fireeee".
Fans and fellow athletes praise the look
Her fans lapped up the look, with one calling it "iconic." Tennis star Katie Boulter commented: "Corset is epic!!" Fellow Team GB athlete Amy Hunt said: "corset is insaaaaaane". Another fan wrote: "You look absolutely stunning, Keely." Other reactions included "The corsettt is everything" and "Looking good as usual".
Recent injury forces withdrawal
However, Hodgkinson's sporting fortunes have been mixed. She was left in tears last month when she withdrew from the 400m final of the British Athletics Championship at the Alexander Stadium in Birmingham. She had taken her place in lane nine but quickly moved to the track edge, looking upset as officials gathered.
She later explained: "I wasn't feeling 100% standing on the start line, so I made the tough decision to step away and not race. I didn't want to risk anything ahead of this summer." Hodgkinson has also withdrawn from the Glasgow 2026 Commonwealth Games to focus on the European Athletics Championships in Birmingham.
