Cover model Hannah Davis makes a splash at Miami Swim Week
Can you think of anyone more fitting to host an event at Miami Swim Week than 2015 SI Swimsuit cover model Hannah Davis? We couldn't either!
So it's no surprise that the smart people at Pret-á-Surf enlisted the help of our girl to present their S/S 2016 swim and surf collection down in South Beach over the weekend. And can we just say, she looked flawless doing it.
To celebrate their 5-year anniversary, Pret-á-Surf, along with Hannah at The Standard Spa at Miami Beach, showed off their newest designs for next summer, offered a "dive-in" movie screening, and also provided Surfset fitness classes, where attendees could practice their surfing skills out of the water.
And although we know you're used to seeing a one Anastasia Ashley when we talk of surfing here at Swim Daily, we have to admit, Hannah has some serious talent on a board. Could it be all those years of living on Saint Thomas that made our lifelong beach bum a natural?
At the event, Swim Daily caught up with Hannah to pick her brain about how she shops for a swimsuit and her must-do activities in Miami:
SWIM DAILY: Tell us about the Pret-á-Surf brand and why you decided to get involved with the SS 16 presentation and dive-in movie event?
HANNAH: "Pret-á-Surf is a brand that I have loved for years. I am a sporty girl and love bathing suits that i can be active in, so their suits are perfect for me! They are so sexy but still realistic for the types of activities I’m doing at the beach!"
SWIM DAILY: What do you look for when shopping for a new swimsuit?
HANNAH DAVIS: "I look for a flattering cut first; the print/color is always secondary. I want something I feel comfortable in!"
SWIM DAILY: What’s the secret to maintaining the perfect bikini bod year-round?
HANNAH DAVIS: "There is no secret! I love to eat, so exercise is imperative. I try to do something active every day, whether it be the gym, a hike, playing tennis..."
SWIM DAILY: When visiting Miami, what’s your favorite thing to do?
HANNAH DAVIS: "My favorite thing is to hit the beach with friends or lounge at the pool. I don’t get a lot of time off, so for me it's nice to decompress and just sunbathe."
SWIM DAILY: If you could shoot anywhere in the world for next year’s SI Swimsuit issue, where would it be?
HANNAH DAVIS: "I would love to shoot in the Virgin Islands where I was born and raised. I know all the secret spots and beaches and would love to show off where I’m from!"
