IS THE LIFE OF A COSTUME DESIGNER REALL THIS CHAOTIC? 🎭🌪️
Have you ever wondered what happens to the glittering costumes of a hit show once the final applause dies down? Today, I’m taking you on a high-speed journey through the "day after" where the real work begins. This is a look into the soul of the theater, where we balance the heartbreak of saying goodbye to stars like Sussie Eriksson with the meticulous precision of a fitting at the Royal Opera. This video is a promise to show you the grit behind the glamour—the laundry bags, the last-minute alterations, and the essential moments of friendship that keep us sane in this beautiful, frantic industry. If you’ve ever felt like your life is a series of endless tasks, you’ll find a kindred spirit here. 👗🏛️🧵
In this longform vlog, we start at the epicenter of Swedish culture: the Royal Opera. I’m handing over Sussie Eriksson’s iconic costumes to the master tailor Reza. As Sussie moves on to the production of & Juliet, her wardrobe needs a new life for the next performer. We talk about the importance of fit, the history of the garments, and why the dry cleaners are the unsung heroes of the stage. 🧼✨
But it’s not all work! We head back to my personal atelier at the theater where my dear friend Martin surprises me with the perfect Christmas survival kit: a can of Kir and some mini bubbles. These small gestures of love are what make the theater feel like a family. Then, we transition to a cozy evening at Ulf’s. We dive into the world of dumplings, fine wine, and a marathon of Only Murders in the Building. We also take a close look at Ulf’s latest obsession: a second-hand owl sculpture from Sellpy. Is it kitsch? Is it art? Or is it a masterpiece of thrifting? 🦉🥟🍷
This episode explores the intersection of professional duty and personal joy. We look at the trending world of second-hand shopping through Sellpy and how it’s changing the way we decorate our spaces. Whether you’re interested in theater history, costume maintenance, or just want to see what an influencer eats for dinner after a long day at the Opera, there is something here for you. 🏙️💎✨
