Bambi Northwood Blyth

 2015-09-18

Australian model Bambi Northwood-Blyth was discovered after she missed university orientation, and stumbled into a modelling agency by chance. For six months, she modeled steadily, mostly test-shoots and in showrooms, and was eventually sent abroad to walk the international runway collections. She received her big break upon appearing in a Balenciaga show, her first-ever runway show – a major coup for the unusually petite model — as well as walking for Karl Lagerfeld in Chanel. Shortly thereafter, Northwood-Blyth booked her first-ever advertising campaign, the relaunch of the Calvin Klein’s CK One fragrance, photographed by Steven Meisel.

Widely admired for her deceptively carefree personality, her infectious and never-ending supply of energy on set, and of course those artfully untamed eyebrows, Northwood-Blyth has had the pleasure of working with Armani, Hogan, Topshop, H&M, Tommy Hilfiger, and Rihanna for River Island photographed by Mario Sorrenti.

Northwood-Blyth has appeared on the covers of Vogue Japan, Elle Australia, Marie Claire Italy, V Magazine, Harper’s Bazaar Australia and Spain, Oyster, and French Revue des Modes. In addition to the aforementioned, select editorial features include Vogue Australia, CR Fashion Book, Russh, W, and i-D magazines.

To top it all off, Northwood-Blyth is a budding entrepreneur and street style star. Her BBAM clothing is sold in a various boutiques in Australia, and she has even launched her own line of rosé. She is also an ambassador for Meat Free Week, a charity that raises awareness for factory farming and animal cruelty, and actively involved with Australia’s Reach Foundation, an organization dedicated to mentoring at-risk youth.
