Fashion friends united and Finnish TV


Busy days in Stockholm...
Last night I got together with another fellow designer and wonderful friend. Ylva Liljefors has dressed all the coolest people in Sweden and is also a great person to be around. I will try to fit in a visit to her work, at mens brand Post Fire Dew, before going back to Malmö.

As you can probably tell from the pix, Ylva and I have slightly differing approaches to life...


In spite of this we really like each other! Though she didn't really buy my braid as being the genuine article and was a bit disrespectful about it...



One of the things on todays schedule was a meet with Finnish television, for a show they are making about Minna - the successful fashion blogger.
Going there, reminded me of how it's not always (in fact hardly EVER!) limos and champagne. It's a lot more like, with tired feet on a very scryffy old bus No.74, and the collection in a battered old aluminum suit case.



Anyway it got better! Minna is very concentrated while taking instuctions from producer Liisa Akimof. Truthfully, she looks petrified.


Something she quickly got over! Once she had three cameras pointed at herself, she seemed perfecly comfortable. I got some footage too, and we really managed to wave a lot of Robert&Blad designs around, and tried to sneak the logo in to every shoot and every angle.

It's going to be super fun to watch, even though I don't understand a word of finnish. Apparently the tv-show will not be accessible on the web, outside of Finland, due to copyrights. So those of you who can watch Yle 1, be alert!
