Blown Away Girl is a collaboration between Calgary artists Allison Dawrant and Ken Chow. This collaborative piece is an homage to the iconic 1978 Maxell ad (aka Blown Away Guy).
For the original shoot, photographer Steve Steigman was unable to find a model with long hair and used hair and makeup artist Jac Colello for the shoot. They used hair gel and wires to simulate the wind-blown effect. Fortunately Allison has long hair and we had no problem being blown away.
