? Roots and Family

Bambi was born and raised in Melbourne, Australia, in a creative and supportive family. She shares a close bond with her younger sister, a successful designer and stylist in her own right.

Diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes as a teen, Bambi found unwavering support from her parents — a foundation that helped her thrive in an industry where health and image often collide.

? Growing Up Active and Grounded

Raised near the ocean, Bambi embraced surfing, dance, and athletics from a young age. That coastal energy still infuses her look and lifestyle: sporty, free-spirited, and unfiltered.

Her diabetes diagnosis could have derailed her modeling dreams — but instead, it became part of her narrative. She learned to manage her health while pursuing an international career, becoming an inspiration for others with chronic conditions.

? From Classroom to Catwalk

After finishing high school in Melbourne, Bambi jumped headfirst into modeling. Rather than attending university, she immersed herself in the real-world education of the fashion industry — learning from visionary creatives like Mario Testino, Terry Richardson, and Ellen von Unwerth.

? Runway Rise & Breakthrough Moments

Bambi’s breakout moment came when she walked for Balenciaga and Chanel, where her distinctive natural look and bold brows made her stand out instantly.

Since then, she has worked with a long list of iconic brands, including:

• Calvin Klein
• Topshop
• H&M
• Tommy Hilfiger
• Levi’s
• Diesel
• Rag & Bone
• Chanel

She’s graced the pages of Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, Elle, Dazed, i-D, and more — always bringing a raw honesty and relaxed sophistication to her editorials.

? Personal Life

Bambi married Ksubi designer Dan Single in 2014, though the couple later separated. She keeps her romantic life mostly private today and splits her time between Australia, the U.S., and Europe, living the model-off-duty dream — surfboards, sneakers, and all.

? Impact Beyond the Runway

Bambi uses her platform to champion:

• Type 1 diabetes awareness
• Mental health and body acceptance
• Equality and transparency in fashion

She’s taken the stage at TEDx and other platforms to speak about self-worth, identity, and leadership, especially for young women facing social or health-related challenges.
