Bryona Ashly Bio
Bryona Ashly is an American Burlesque performer, glamour and nude model. She was born on March 27, 1995, in Kelseyville, California. Playboy featured her as a Creator in October 2022 at 27, placing her work within the brand's creator-led digital program.
Ashly has natural breasts, hazel eyes and brown hair. Her measurements are 34-24-35.
Bryona Ashly’s creative life began well before modeling or burlesque entered the picture. Growing up in Northern California, she learned crafts and sewing from her grandmother, skills that followed her into adulthood and eventually became part of her professional identity. Rather than simply performing in costumes designed by someone else, Bryona makes many of her own burlesque outfits, bringing the process of designing, constructing, and performing together.
Before pursuing entertainment professionally, Bryona worked as a nanny. She eventually left Northern California for Los Angeles to build a career as a model and burlesque performer, transforming interests that had once been personal creative outlets into full-time work. She describes herself as easy-going and down-to-earth, but also intensely hardworking—an appropriate combination for a career divided between preparation behind the scenes and performance onstage.
Producer and photographer Maddie Córdoba introduced Bryona to Playboy Plus, leading to her first shoot for the brand in October 2022. The opportunity fulfilled an ambition she had held for some time, while the experience itself aligned naturally with the confidence she had developed through modeling and burlesque. Bryona regarded the collaboration as empowering and hoped that her own comfort with her body could encourage other women to feel similarly confident about theirs.
Playboy was soon followed by another major glamour-magazine distinction. In March 2023, Bryona Ashly was named Penthouse Pet of the Month, placing her among the relatively small group of contemporary models whose careers connect both Playboy and Penthouse. The recognition broadened a profile already built around independent creativity and live performance rather than modeling alone.
Away from work, Bryona enjoys Mexican food and follows both football and basketball, details that fit the relaxed personality she describes. Yet it is the creative thread running through her career that gives her story its character: childhood sewing lessons became handmade burlesque costumes, a move to Los Angeles turned performance into a profession, and that work eventually led to appearances with two of glamour publishing’s most recognizable names. Her October 2022 Playboy Creator feature captured Bryona during that progression, shortly before her career added the Penthouse Pet title to the story.
