SI Swimsuit 2015 Casting Call: Georgie Wass
Bold redhead, chronic worrywart, undeniable knock-out
CASTING CALLS for Swimsuit 2015 are in full swing and we are bringing you a sneak peek at some of this year's Swimsuit hopefuls. Who do you think will make it in?

Angie Everhart, Cintia Dicker, Jessica Perez . . . Georgie Wass? We know a lot of you love your redheads, and when we're talking this 24-year-old Aussie, I think your convictions will only strengthen. Of course, the London transplant is more than her hair color, but it's hard to ignore the striking effect her signature characteristic has on the lens. In other Georgie news, though, the model is in the process of renovating her apartment. From the sounds of it it's been an emotional roller coaster, as she counts "finish renovating my apartment without any tears" No. 2 on her bucket list. Any handymen out there? Yeah, take a number.
