Totally Stockholm 1
Gig: Slowgold Here’s a gig that’s been moved arou
nd many, many times over the last two years – we can hope that in October 2021, it’s finally found its home. Slowgold is an artist that needs no introduction - Amanda Werne has become a well-loved artist in Sweden since her 2012 self-titled debut. Her music has a sparkling, timeless quality, like it’s lit up by the late-evening sun, and her latest album Aska is one of her best. She may – at last – be able to introduce it to the Stockholm public at Nalen this autumn. Slowgold, Nalen, Oct 8 Exhibition: Nordens Paris Paris was the capital of the fashion world as the 20th century opened, to the extent that it even established a little embassy way up north in Stockholm. At the department store NK, the NK:s Franska damskrädderi (French Women’s Tailoring) department brought all the French capital’s new trends to the Swedish one, including work from the likes of Coco Chanel and Yves Saint Laurent, and had a clientele that included royalty. This exhibition explores the twists and tales of an extremely glamourous chapter of Sweden’s fashion history. It is also accompanied by a book on the same subject. Nordens Paris, Nordiska Museet, Opens 17 September. 27 Photo: Erik Holmén/Nordiska museet Photo: Ellika Henrikson
