Creative catwalk and Filmstudio

VillaPernilla  is part of a collective here in the local area, Högsby, that is called Höllywood Studios. We all work within various creative areas and come together when given a chance to make projects that try to put Högsby and Småland on the map.

Our latest project is an alternative model contest called Greta G. Greta Garbo's roots was from this area and there is even a Greta Garbo museum here. My job is to, apart from measuring and style the models to create a studio for the jury and a catwalk that has a Småland feeling. I have also been asked to recreate one of Garbo's film costumes. The aim of the project is to give young people that live in Småland  good role models and an opportunity to start daring to dream.

Yesterday I made connection with a local wood/furniture company that will sponsor us with furniture. They are called Lövsjö Loghouse and make rustic furniture using wood and timber from our local forrest here. Very happy to meet them and this evening they are coming down with a lorry full off furniture. Here are some photos and I will post some more photos of the studio one's we have got it all together.
