There is nothing like a strong and independent woman, which the Phoenix Keating AW13 campaign focuses on. Inspired by the Amazonian woman of Greek Mythology, Androdameia, for which the collection is named after, model Alica Burdeu taps into the side of herself that is as fearless, uncompromising, relentless and elevated as the Subduer of Men is.
The Phoenix Keating AW13 campaign was shot by photographer Henryk Lobaczewski. Highlighting the Australian beauty's already towering frame, Burdeu is is captured looming in dresses and skirt suits that have been given a subtle military appeal through the gilded embellishments and more. The looks were perfected by hairstylist Lauren McCowan and makeup artist Amelia Axton,.
The Phoenix Keating AW13 print ads are accompanied by a film that was directed by Toby Marosszeky.
