SPEEDO | RUNWAY | SUMMER 2011 SWIMWEAR COLLECTION | MERCEDES-BENZ FF



    On Wednesday, I attended the runway launch of the SPEEDO Summer ’11 swimwear collection at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Festival Sydney, Town Hall. The summery and energetic, colour filled show featured women’s, men’s and kids SPEEDO BEACH collections plus also the SPEEDO AQUABUMPS collaboration with Eugene Tan. The AQUABUMPS prints were refreshing and perfect for the summer to come! The runway show also showcased the perfect vibrant colours and prints for the upcoming summer, plus some dancers interjecting throughout the show! The kids on the runway were the cutest things ever! Speedo shows they are made for all ages. When it comes to swimwear, it's always Speedo. I remember learning to swim in them!



    Rachel Finch walked the runway, for the first time since competing in the Miss Universe Australia. It was amazing to see her return to the runway, taking a break for 2 years, during in which, has been on Celebrity MasterChef, Dancing With The Stars and now engaged too!



    Walking down the runway alongside Rachel, was Eamon Sullivan, Olympic swimmer who has received a lot of press this year with obtaining the title of CLEO BACHELOR 2011, crownded as a Celebrity MasterChef, opening his co-owned cafe Louis Baxter in Perth and he just launched his very own cookbook, Eamon's Kitchen. I had a quick chat with him backstage while he was getting prepped for the show. Watch the video below, talking about what was going through his nerves before walking down the runway, what's next installed for him and a message for young aspiring swimmers. There is also another video at the bottom of Rachel, Eamon and Sophie talking about Speedo.



    Sitting front row, opposite me were Eamon's swimmer mates, Speedo athletes - James Magnussen, Geoff Huegill and Libby Trickett cheering and whistling him on. It's great to see them supporting each other!


    Australia's Next Top Model Cycle 6, Sophie Van Den Akker also brought some energy and fun vibes down the runway.

    Models are definitely a wake up call for me... to exercise. Ps. Doesn't that model below in yellow shorts, look like Chris Brown?!
