:: Welcome party in Melbourne for Miss Universe Australia 2009

By: Carmine Pascuzzi

Fresh from her mighty win as Miss Universe Australia, Rachael Finch was given a very warm welcome to Melbourne when her Official Welcome party was staged at Baroq House recently. Through the efforts of the Miss Universe Australia organisation, led by Deborah Miller, it was an opportunity for Rachael to meet some media and celebrities, as well as several sponsors, including QV Skincare, for whom she won an endorsement as part of her title.

Here are pictures from the event.
