Bankwest launched their insurance happiness character, Doris the Duck, late last year and St Andrew’s Australia approached BKI on their behalf to bring her to life. The brief was to create a Doris costume that could be worn for promotional events. Never one to create the stock standard, BKI put their stamp on Doris with modern techniques and materials on a tight budget.
In the end, we delivered a specialty piece with a neat solution for an immensely satisfying result. Doris is a large, cost-friendly character that is easily adjustable to different wearers – and quite spritely for a 10-foot tall Duck a l’Orange!
