LADY GAGA and the Nipple tassel glasses.













I was at Lady Gaga's Born This Way Ball in Globen, Stockholm on the 30th of August. Me and my friends had queued in 11 hours to get in to the Monster pit, the section closest to the stage. I ended up standing 2nd row.



When she sat down right in front of me between two songs people started throwing gifts at her, and so did I. I threw her a pair of nipple tassel glasses that I had made. She tried them on, said they were nice, and she invited me to come backstage with her after the show.


I was happy to be chosen by her as she only picked 7-8 people out of thousands of people who were there to watch her perform. Right after the show I walked up to the security guards and asked how I could get backstage. Unfortunately they didn't let me go backstage as they said I was suppose to have a backstage bracelet that someone should have given to me but never did. So I never went backstage, which kind of sucks. It would have been amazing to meet her and talk to her. But I'm glad she liked the glasses!

These pictures are screenprints from a video I found on youtube, so they're not the best quality. Here is a better shot of the glasses. My friend Anti is wearing them in the queue while waiting for Gaga.

























And here's the video from which I got the pictures. I'm screaming like a crazy person, haha. Starts from 6:05.

Meeting with Sisters in Stockholm

I arrived late on friday night, and Stockholm greeted me with -18 degrees! As I didn't bring my winter coat, I had to wear layer upon layer upon layer to save myself from freezing to death. On Saturday I met up with the people from Sisters, and the other 14 designers who made it through...
 
Tomas & Anders from Studio Total, Sisters PR agency.





















We're going to design one garment each, and then produce a small number ourselves. So they're going to be limited edition! The garments will be sold in some of the stores around Sweden, but, there will images of the designs displayed in all 55 Sister stores.. The press show is on the 15th of April, so it's all happening rather soon!

Some of the other designers..

Milk & Champagne, my favourite mix!


Elin was going to host a ghetto party later that evening, hence these amazing colours! She works as a design assistant at JC, which is where her rings are from. After we finished I went straight there and bougth myself the wolf ring! (Which you can't see properly in this pic, but I'll show you soon!)


I don't think I'll be getting much sleep in the next couple of months, with this, school work and the fashion show I'm planning with my friends. But it's excessively exciting all the same, so all definitely worth it!
