Interview: Model and TV presenter Rachael Finch

The newly-engaged Rachael Finch sizzled on the Speedo runway this week. We spoke to her about her top tips for getting bikini ready and what her favourite summer accessory is!

What do you love about the new Speedo collection?
I love that pieces from the collection have been taken straight from the 50s archive. It's so nice to wear a bit of history and feel sexy at the same time.

How do you get bikini-ready?
Exercise, healthy eating, a spray tan and walking up and down my lounge room practicing my walk.

Lots of water and 8 hours sleep every night.

Travel and working with a very talented team.
