It had been two long years since Rachael Finch, former Miss Universe Australia, had last strutted on the catwalk in swimwear, but  whilst admitting that she felt nervous, she broke the time frame by modelling Speedo’s collection at the trendy Mercedes- Benz Fashion Festival which was held in Sydney.

Finch told The Daily Telegraph before the show: “It has been two years since I’ve been on the catwalk in swimwear, I must say. [I'm] a little nervous but really really excited. I decided to make a comeback with Speedo because it’s such an iconic brand. It’s all about positivity, happiness, vibrancy – all qualities that I love to include in my life.”

Founded in 1914 in Australia, the fabulous Speedo brand is still going strong and much of its sucess is down to the wide range  of style and variety of swimwear the brand offers, meaning there is something for everyone, whether you are seeking simple and practical or more stylish and different.

And the best thing about the brand? You don’t have to have the body of a supermodel to look good in one of their swimsuits.One of our favourites is the Speedo Luxe Claudezine swimsuit, a beautiful sophisticated one piece with a V-neck in classic black with inbuilt tummy control and extra bust support. With the Xtra-life lycra fabric, designed to give you a sleek body shaping look, Speedo claims the fabric will last up to 10 times more than a regular swimsuit fabric, meaning it will last you more holidays than you could imagine!
