Geri Halliwell shows off her super-slim figure in skintight pink bandage dress at Sony Radio Academy Awards

She's admitted suffering from eating disorders in the past and has struggled to fully accept her figure.

But it seems Geri Halliwell has finally achieved a happy medium with her body, as she proved while attending the Sony Radio Academy Awards in London tonight.

The 38-year-old star looked stunning in a skintight pink bandage dress which highlighted her incredibly tiny waist, and a pair of leg-lengthening nude platform heels.

Slender: The dress drew attention to Geri's tiny waist and the nude platforms lengthened her legs

Geri recently launched her own range of bikinis for high-street chain Next, and said it was having daughter Bluebell which made her realise once and for all she needed to get her weight under control.

She said: 'I’ve been there and done it all. I've not been body-confident and thought "My boobs are too big, too small, I’m too small, too tall, too skinny, too wide, too slim, too fat…"

'But when I had Bluebell, I knew I had to set a healthy example. I’ve learned that if I tell myself I’m not allowed something I binge on it later.'

Gorgeous in gold: Rachel Stevens wowed in a glittering gold dress as she posed on red carpet

She added to the Daily Mirror: 'So if I want chocolate, I have chocolate. If I want biscuits, I have biscuits. I love cake. I just love cake. We’ll only call the food police if I eat 20 packets.'

Geri was at the Sony event tonight ahead of releasing her new solo album.

Also at the star-studded awards ceremony was Rachel Stevens, who competed with Geri for best figure on the red carpet in her slinky gold dress.

Despite only giving birth last November, Rachel appears to have already sprung back into shape, and drew attention to her slender waist by teaming her gold dress with a skinny black belt.

Rachel looked radiant as she posed for photographers, despite admitting she sometime struggles with the early morning that come with her six-month-old daughter Amelie.

She said: 'It’s a lot of early morning. Amelie is a good sleeper, she’s a really good girl but nothing prepares for the shock.'

But Rachel said the sleepless nights aren't enough to put her off having more children with husband Alex Bourne, adding: 'Alex would like a football team, and I think I’d like at least two or three.'

Professor Brian Cox picked up the best speech programme prize at the Sony Radio Academy Awards for his Radio 4 series, The Infinite Monkey Cage.

And Simon Mayo landed the best music programme prize for his Radio 2 drivetime show, beating fellow station stars Dermot O'Leary, Mark Radcliffe and Stuart Maconie.

The event, at London's Grosvenor House Hotel, is the radio industry's most prestigious awards event.

Cox is no stranger to radio after his years of chart hits as keyboard player with D:Ream. But he has become better known recently as a TV star, making science sexy with his hit BBC programmes about the wonders of space, which recently landed awards from the Royal Television Society.

His Radio 4 series - co-presented with Robin Ince - mixes comedy and science and has also been turned into a touring show.

Radio 5 Live's humorous discussion show Fighting Talk, hosted by Colin Murray, was named best sports show - a title it last won in 2006.

Winners: Geri Halliwell poses with Robbie Savage, the winner of the DAB Rising Star award, while Charlotte Hawkins and Katie Burningham pose with the award for Best Feature

Absolute Radio's Annabel Port - sidekick of drivetime presenter Geoff Lloyd - was named best on-air contributor. Port - who once composed a song with Sir Paul McCartney as one of her on-air challenges - was praised as 'a naturally funny storyteller whose contributions are hugely entertaining and perfectly pitched'.

Former Premiership star Robbie Savage took the Sony DAB Rising Star Award, beating Rolling Stones Ronnie Wood who had been an unlikely inclusion in a newcomers list at the age of 63.

But Wood appeared unconcerned about his loss, instead smiling as he posed with stunning girlfriend Ana Araujo.

Savage - who has just retired as Derby County captain - moved into broadcasting as co-host of popular Radio 5 Live phone-in show 606. He had rallied his listeners and Twitter followers to support him in the public vote.

Radio 4's Matthew Price was named news journalist of the year, while Irish funnyman Jason Byrne landed the best comedy prize for his Radio 2 show, beating Rhod Gilbert and Radio 4's Just A Minute.

And Radio 4 play, Every Child Matters starring Sarah Lancashire, was named best drama.

The production dealt with a suspended social worker whose client had let her ten-year-old daughter dance online for paedophiles.
