MOVE over Jennifer Hawkins, blonde bombshell Jessica Hart is ready to step up as the face of Myer on the international stage.
Less than a year after signing with Myer, Hart will headline a fashion parade at the A-list G'Day USA dinner in Hollywood on January 22, showing off her figure in a Seafolly bikini.
Hart has replaced Hawkins as the fresh face of Australia at the event after Myer dumped the former Miss Universe owing to drama with her management team.
Hart had her final fittings for the parade in Sydney yesterday.
She will walk the red carpet in a one-off Aurelio Costarella gown, before opening the show in swimwear while flanked by buff Bondi lifeguards. She will also put her best foot forward in a sexy Manning Cartell frock.
Hart, who has been holidaying in Australia with her family, said she was thrilled to be showcasing Australian designers on the international stage.
"It's been amazing to be back in Australia for a few weeks. I love New York but you forget what it's like to wake up to see the sun and hear the birds singing," Hart said.
"I am genuinely excited with the clothes I am wearing at G'Day USA. The new Seafolly stuff is fantastic, and I've got a rocking Manning Cartell dress. Myer is bringing (my sister) Ashley to Los Angeles too, which is just brilliant."
Former Miss Universe Australia Laura Dundovic, Pia Miller and Kris Smith will also feature in the parade.
