Alice Burdeu is an Australian fashion model and winner of the third cycle of the reality television show Australia's Next Top Model. Burdeu first came to the spotlight as a contestant on third cycle of Australia's Next Top Model. Burdeu's height, looks, and runway walk garnered praise from the judges, especially Alex Perry, however her low body mass index was a source of great concern for the judging panel. Burdeu received some criticism from photographer Jez Smith for her one look wonder in some of her photos and from fellow competitors for the frequency with which she voiced complaints. In a live finale broadcast on 5 June 2007, Burdeu was named winner of the cycle based on votes cast by the judges and by Australia's Next Top Model viewers.
After winning Australia's Next Top Model Alice appeared in an ad campaign for Green With Envy, a fashion boutique in Melbourne, and on the cover of Pages, an Australian fashion magazine. She modeled for several months in Singapore, appearing on the covers of Luxury, and Luxx Living magazines. During her prize vacation to New York, Burdeu was signed by Elite Model Management, who helped her secure jobs in the Fall/Winter 2008 New York Fashion Week shows of designers including Proenza Schouler, Marchesa, and Marc Jacobs.
Burdeu has appeared on the covers of Vogue Australia, Verse, and Luxury, as well as in fashion editorials for Women's Wear Daily, Velvet, Elle UK, Marie Claire Italy, and Numero Korea. She has walked in runway shows for designers including Louis Vuitton, Alexander McQueen, Dolce & Gabbana, Marc Jacobs, Christian Lacroix, Jean-Charles de Castelbajac, Jil Sander, Lanvin, Lacoste, Shiatzy Chen, Sonia Rykiel, and Alex Perry. Burdeu has also appeared in campaigns for D&G, Sonia Rykiel, Napoleon Perdis, Mimco and Blumarine.
