Catherine McNeil

The Bogan from Logan, model Catherine McNeil, has the world at her feet as she is set to star at this year's Paris haute couture shows. The models heart remains in the Sunshine State where she wants to buy a house.

The green-eyed beauty lives in Manhattan, and has been captivating the catwalks of Paris, New York and Milan, but she returned home for a photo shoot as the new face of Australian swimwear label Seafolly.

It was great being back home as we shot on Lizard Island and I still love Australia, there’s no question about that, she said.

Seafolly MD Anthony Halas had nothing but praise, describing McNeil as the most significant brand ambassador in their history and an international brand coup”.
