Model Spotlight: Kendra Spears
Seattle-born beauty Kendra Spears is our beloved all-rounder, a runway regular with an Architecture degree in tow. After becoming a finalist in the 2008 Supermodel of the World competition, everyone clamoured for a piece of the (then) Ford Models favourite. And who can blame them? With her sculpted brows and that trademark beauty spot, the ever-determined Kendra is a photographer’s dream.
She’s a previous face of Prada and the current pin-up for Armani Code Fragrance. She’s graced the editorials of everyone from Vogue to Dansk and Dazed and Confused. Now ‘Ken’ or ‘Keni’ (as she’s known to her friends) joins the Witchery team, setting up fort in Sydney to shoot our newest campaign. Intriguing and intelligent, she’s a perfect fit.
