They’ve made a career out of wearing khaki but before Bindi Irwin made it big on US Dancing with the Stars a celebrity styling team was brought in to to overhaul the whole family’s look.
The goal was to bring their aesthetic “into the 21st Century”, while still maintaining what they stand for – being professional wildlife warriors.
“People told Bindi she had to have a more mature look, she was 18 and dressing like a little girl, she was pretty receptive from the get go,” a source close to the family told Confidential
“It wasn’t only Bindi, the whole family were stuck back in the ’90s, they had to be brought into the 21st century.”
Robert’s slick new haircut back in October all makes sense now as we bid farewell to the bowl cut only a month before Bindi took out Dancing with the Stars.
“They could not wait to get at that hair, it looked like Terri cut it herself,” the source revealed. “He has been transformed the most, he looks like a cool young guy now.”
However not everyone was on board with the source saying Terri was the most resistant to change as her look.
“It was potentially about holding on to Steve’s memory,” they said. “Holding on to the glory days you could say. But she came around, understanding that like a business has to evolve so do the people who front the brand.”
