Simplicity and utility are often-used words when praising Scandinavian brands and Ilse Jacobsen is a lifestyle brand that trades on these attributes. Founded in 1993 in Hornbaek, a seaside town in Denmark, the label is today perhaps best known for its rubber boots with their combination of laces and feece lining. The label’s innovative raincoats and ponchos come in classic colours, making them perfect for festivals, or just in case protection is needed when exploring the city. df Ilse Jacobsen, Norrlandsgatan 22, 111 43 Stockholm, 46 (0)8 312575, ilsejacobsen.com * for map go to page 100

From an old-world restaurant celebrated in song, to a tiny workshop still creating handmade horses, Stephen Doig ofers an insider’s guide to the city’s captivating heritage
With its rise as a cutting-edge design capital, Stockholm has carved a niche as a 21st-century innovator. Its fashion sets an agenda across the world; its residents are pioneers of avant-garde style. In this contemporary landscape, it’s easy to overlook the historic elements of the city, the old-fashioned enclaves that exude charm and tradition. That there’s still a deep respect for

immortalised in song a few decades later. In the 20th century it became the epicentre of the city’s artistic movement. From the tunnel-vaulted lower ground foor, all curved ceilings and candlelight, to the upper-level dining rooms that exude 18th-century elegance, this is a captivating townhouse. In looking at traditional Stockholm, it’s impossible to ignore Swedish craft because this is such an essential part of the country’s culture. Svensk Slöjd is a tiny workshop and

heritage is refected by Stockholm’s trailblazing design label, Acne, whose fagship store is housed in a striking, 18th-century building that was formerly a bank. In seeking out such heritage treasures you see how old Scandinavia lives on in the city. Gamla Stan, which translates as Old Town, is a warren of medieval buildings and cobbled streets, of which the oldest parts date back 800 years. There are echoes of old Stockholm at Stortorget, whose ancient square is lined with handsome merchants’ houses painted in shades of sepia and orange; there’s no glass or gleaming steel here. Gamla Stan also boasts the Royal Palace, the gothic cathedral and some of the most historic institutions in the city. The old-fashioned shutters and rustic signage outside Den Gyldene Freden are the frst indications that this eatery is a passage back to another era. According to the Guinness Book of Records it is the city’s oldest restaurant. It was founded as a tavern in 1722, and its place in Stockholm lore was secured when it was

store that celebrates the joys of handmade products. It sells traditional wooden dala horses, beautifully painted with swirling forals. Originally designed for children, these horses developed as a Swedish craft in the 19th century and now they are equally enchanting for adults looking for an unusual ornament. Other striking, handcrafted pieces include embroidered cushions, rugs and blankets in traditional Skåne wool as well as trinkets, fgurines and brooches. In the cutting-edge world of Swedish design, it’s heartening to note that not everything is driven by new innovation. Design label Svenskt Tenn has continued to respect traditional artisan production since it was founded by Estrid Ericson in 1924. Craft was, and still is, integral to the label: inspired by the British Arts and Crafts Movement,

CARRY A CLASSIC Form follows function when Swedish designers turn their attention to bags. Josh Sims discovers a practical but stylish range of durable, good-looking pieces Could a heritage of enjoying the great outdoors, matched with a deeply practical design history, make a country especially adept at producing attractive but utilitarian bags? It is perhaps a convoluted argument, and yet it seems borne out by the carrier culture of Sweden. One of its leading lights, Sandqvist, argues just that: the company says that its bags are ‘for an urban lifestyle, to be used every day’ and are inspired by ‘Nordic nature, with its mountains, lakes and vast unpopulated areas’. Think of them as antidotes to the hyped and invariably impractical ‘It’ bags.
‘My design approach is always about coming back to functionality – answering the question “What do I want this bag to do?”,’ says Anton Sandqvist, who founded the 10-yearold company. ‘Invariably that means you don’t want anything complicated. In fact, you look at a design and wonder what else you can remove from it. That’s an historic way of doing things in Nordic countries – people were necessarily self-reliant and whatever they made was for a certain purpose. That heritage is still visible in design here today.’ Sandqvist’s bags present a good distillation
64 | F E AT U R E S
of Swedish bag design principles: thought through, with pockets in the right places; hardwearing and made to age well; constructed in materials such as canvas, leather and more technical fabrics like Cordura; considerately sized – big enough to be useful, not so big that they can’t be used with ease; and essentially classic – backpacks, messenger bags, laptop carriers and the like. The same might be said of Udonly, a line created by Sanna Bremmer, whose best-known, simple bag style was inspired by an old British postman’s bag – although Bremmer’s version was scaled down and made in organically treated vegetable-tanned leather. Bremmer, who also designs small leather goods, was driven to design her frst bag for perhaps the most un-glitzy reason imaginable: the need for a good-looking bag in which to carry nappies and other baby-changing paraphernalia. ‘I had a lot of friends having babies but there was no bag available that was practical and attractive, or that men would want to carry. Everything looked like a picnic bag,’ Above (from top): Sandqvist Stockholm store; Sandqvist backpack
Enjoy, shop and ExplorE in thE nEw hEart of stockholm Mood Stockholm has been created as a kind of city-within-the-city and draws inspiration from other thriving neighbourhoods around the world. By fusing the traditional and the modern, it brings new life to the Swedish capital. Shoppers can explore more than 50 stores that have been hand picked to bring real character to this unique shopping centre. There’s a lot to get through, but if you get tired you can take a break and relax with a spa treatment, a glass of cava or simply pause to get your nails done. When it comes to food, our philosophy is to offer the best of many different categories. A quick bowl of noodles, a plate of traditional brasserie food, a perfect cup of coffee together with an enormous cinnamon bun or a state of the art hamburger – it is your pick. If it is too hard to chose you can always come back tomorrow, we are open seven days a week. Mood Stockholm is also a great place if you want to meet friends in a lively environment.

says Bremmer, who this season launched her frst line of bags in canvas. ‘Sure, my bags are not about doing anything trendy – but customers seem to appreciate that they have clean lines and are well-constructed. They’re bags that should last a lifetime, not ones to change every season. That seems especially right for the times now too.’ Local fashion brands such as Acne, Hope and Whyred also ofer cutting-edge accessories including bags, while other Swedish companies are more traditional: Palmgrens, for example, was established as a saddle-maker in 1896, thanks to the backing of the mayor of Stockholm. By the 1950s it had created a modern classic in its tote bags with rattan sides fxed between a leather frame; although in more recent years Palmgrens has taken a more contemporary approach to its products too, thanks to a collaboration with Swedish architect Thomas Sandell. The essential utility factor of many Swedish bag-makers’ style is perhaps summed up by Pap (Products And Philosophy). Pap, which launched just four years ago, specialises in leather cases to hold all your personal tech, but also has a nice line in ‘poop purses’ – wallets to hold small plastic bags used for

clearing up after your dog. It’s a practical consideration one certainly would struggle to fnd among the bag-makers of Paris or Milan. Unsurprisingly, Ulf Pyk, the founder of Pap, did not train in accessories design, but in cabinet-making, product design and interior architecture. ‘We make everything in Sweden because, although that is more expensive, it means we have total control over the way the products are made,’ says Anna Pyk, Ulf’s partner. ‘But, while the way our products are
made is important, it’s also about following a slim, stylish form language. Often the simplest thing can be the hardest to design well.’ That is certainly true. But it is only within a design culture as strong as Scandinavia’s that anyone might talk about a ‘stylish form language’ in relation to a bag at all sandqvist.net, udonly.com, acnestudios.com, hope-sthlm.com, whyred.se, palmgrens.se, papsweden.se

Tiger of Sweden is one of the country’s leading fashion labels. Charlie Neidpath meets its designers
Today, Swedish style has a distinctive presence in shopping centres from London to New York, particularly with Cos, Acne and Cheap Monday making waves internationally. Now another sartorial name can be added to this fashion frmament: Tiger of Sweden. The label has been devised to appeal to the middle market, an area in which Swedish

designers excel, and since it was relaunched in the 1990s it has gone from strength to strength. The gleaming Tiger of Sweden store in Stockholm’s Jakobsbergsgatan, a street bustling with the city’s stylish young, is quite a contrast to the label’s rustic beginnings. It was in windswept, rural Uddevalla on the west coast that Marcus Schwartzman and Hjalmar Nordström set out to reinvent tailoring in 1903. At a time when men went to a tailor to buy a new suit they decided to take fabrics and measuring tapes to customers. They began producing ready-made suit models that could be fne tuned; one of the earliest of these was named Tiger, and the moniker stuck. Soon the brand began experimenting with innovative cuts, which were slimmer and more streamlined, and tweaking fabric production.

After a quiet period in the 1980s, the label was relaunched by CEO Roger Tjernberg in 1993 with the aim of continuing to rework and reinterpret classic tailoring, or as Tjernberg elegantly put it, ‘taking the suit out of the bank and into the street’. Today the label has stores from Canada to South Africa and is set to open a raft of shops in Asia this year.

Much of its current look is masterminded by designers Tine Grandahl and Shena Neville who explain that Tiger of Sweden’s aesthetic is clean, contemporary and tailored.

They agree that Scandinavia is unique in its support of fedgling labels and innovative fashion ideas. ‘It’s good at producing new brands that go on to become really successful.

The Scandinavian aesthetic also fts perfectly into the minimalist trend.’ For the two designers, the city’s striking position is key to their creative process. ‘Since Stockholm comprises many islands, it has a unique character. There’s a special contrast of city and nature.’ In seeking inspiration, the designers tend to head to the cultural hotspots
such as Fotografska, the city’s leading photography gallery, and Moderna Museet. They also mention Stockholm’s archipelago and the remote island of Gotland. One of Tiger of Sweden’s neat, checked jackets and sturdy pair of boots would be perfect for such an excursion tigerofsweden.com

Swedish beauty companies wear their heritage on their (immaculately pristine) sleeves. A characteristically Scandinavian, clean and considered beauty philosophy lies at the heart of Swedish make-up, skincare and perfume labels.
Skincare and fragrance company BjĂśrk & Berries has made it part of its vision to embrace Scandinavian design elements. The brand says that it wants to ‘take the Swedish traditions within the beauty industry to a global audience and develop new, modern and cutting-edge
78 | F E AT U R E S
eco-luxury ranges for the future, with exclusive and efective products that are steeped in Swedish nature, beauty and design’. Flying the Swedish fag is something these brands like to shout about too. ‘We are of course very proud of being a successful Swedish cosmetics brand that has been able to establish abroad,’ explains Mika Liias, founder of Make Up Store. Fellow make-up brand Face Stockholm is equally intent on keeping its Swedish DNA and personality alive and kicking – one of the reasons it does all its product development and marketing in-house. Such principles are resonating with the rest of the world too. Björk & Berries, Make Up Store and Face Stockholm have all expanded into international markets in recent years, after establishing hugely successful beginnings in their home country. Another distinctly Swedish label is Emma S, a skincare brand set up by Above (from top): Björk & Berries White Forest collection; make-up designer Emma Wikland

former model Emma Wiklund (née Sjöberg). So what are the underlying Swedish beauty traditions? According to Björk & Berries ‘tough conditions that we Scandinavians have due to our climate are how our beauty routines have developed historically’; for example, there’s no point blow-drying your hair to perfection only to go out into a snowstorm. ‘We have to be strong and healthy to look good during these conditions. The Swedish are the defnition of natural beauty.’ So it fgures that skincare and make-up products that are made in Sweden aim to help wearers achieve perfect complexions, and that these are becoming the country’s biggest beauty export. Face Stockholm and Make Up Store ofer an easy way to achieve that healthy, glowing complexion. Bright single pots of shadow, blush and lip colour, as well as good bases, invite you to get creative with cosmetics. Make Up Store has made it even easier, with in-store make-up artists on hand to help customers. Successful Swedish beauty brands are all driven by quality and, where possible, ecoluxury. And, as Liias explains, good value, which the Swedes naturally expect. Liias had the idea of setting up his own make-up brand after noticing that students at the make-up school he had established were seeking high-
82 | F E AT U R E S
quality products at afordable prices. ‘The make-up artist’s demand for fawless, quality make-up inspired me to strive to develop a brand that could ofer them just what they were looking for,’ he says. There’s also often an ethical element to Swedish brands. Björk & Berries describes itself as ‘an eco-luxury beauty brand derived from Swedish nature and traditions’. Its unisex White Forest fragrance blends wood and fresh forest air, and its skincare products are based on organic Swedish birch extract, which hydrates, tones and frms skin. Its Green & Clean and Lingonberry Rose products sound as though they’d be at home in a Swedish forest. The brand is trying to give back something to the traditions it borrows from; it is located Above: Björk & Berries White Forest perfume oil
in Gävle, where there were four factories that made perfumes and soaps in the 19th century, and hopes to revive the beauty industry in the region. The Scandinavian talent for design is refected in the products from its beauty brands, which are presented in aesthetically simple but always pleasing packaging. According to Björk & Berries, ‘A mystical landscape and a deep sense of longing have resulted in a sensitive approach to art and design.’ Cities such as Paris and London might dominate the beauty landscape, but Sweden is quietly proving that its own beauty labels can lend a unique spin to cosmetics bjorkandberries.com, makeupstore.se, facestockholm.com, emmas.com

Here, she shares her insider knowledge of Stockholm with Isabella Redmond Styles moveleontine.com

‘i love walking and the Royal Djurgården is the most beautiful place to walk in Stockholm. it is unreal that this natural area is just a fve-minute walk from the city’s core. i usually start at the royal motorboat Club. ‘my favourite restaurant in Stockholm is Riche. it’s ideal for breakfast, Sunday brunch, for a glass of wine or for dinner – in fact for any occasion. it’s always crowded and there’s always something going on. You’ll need to make a reservation for dinner since it’s always fully booked! ‘Another great place for a meal is PA & Co. This place is very small and cosy and is the best venue for a romantic dinner; my husband and i eat here whenever we can fnd a reason to celebrate something. it

Stockholm for 15 years. The walls are black and the vibe is relaxed but usually busy. ‘i love reading books and my favourite bookstore is Antikvariat Oceanen. it is just a few steps from our apartment, so i visit the shop quite often. The store is very small but it has an enormous range of books, mostly fction. The owner knows everything about the world of books. He tells me anecdotes about famous writers and he always recommends something new that never fails to be a fantastic read. ‘118 Second Läder is owned by my friend Eva. She collects and sells vintage leather jackets, boots and furs and has done so for more than 25 years. There is also a small jeans brand in the back of the shop that houses the underground label Clash Jeans.’

You can also fnd my handmade jewellery pieces for sale at Dusty Deco on Sibyllegatan. ‘i frst went to Fasching when i was 16, when i performed on stage. World famous soul singers and jazz legends have all performed here, but the stage is also open for new acts. On Saturdays, it’s a disco playing northern soul with dancing until 4am.

Путешествие во времени Стивен Дойг рассказывает об удивительном историческом наследии старого Стокгольма – от старинного ресторана, увековеченного в песне, до крошечных мастерских, где до сих пор из дерева вручную делают игрушечных лошадей
PHOTO: STOckHOlm ViSiTOrS BOard/JePPe WikSTröm
Стремительное развитие дизайна завоевало Стокгольму славу одного из лидеров инновационного процесса. Шведские дизайнеры задают тренды для всего мира, а их покупатели едва ли уступят кому-то в умении стильно одеваться. На этом фоне легко позабывать об истории города, а ведь в его старинных уголках царит неповторимое очарование традиции. Это понимает, например, один из самых продвинутых брендов Швеции
Acne: проявляя глубочайшее уважение к истории, он открыл флагманский магазин во впечатляющем здании, где в 18 веке располагался банк. Изучая жемчужины, подобные этой, вы обнаружите и сможете прочувствовать старинную Скандинавию, притаившуюся в современном городе. Gamla Stan, что значит «Старый город», состоит из средневековых зданий и мощеных улиц: некоторым кварталам около 800 лет! Отголоски прошлых эпох легко заметить и на площади Stortorget, которую образуют очаровательные купеческие дома, выкрашенные бежевый и оранжевый цвета. И никакого стекла или стали: королевский дворец, готический кафедральный собор, исторические здания – все это придает Старому городу неповторимый колорит. Старомодные ставни и вывеска на фасаде ресторана Den Gyldene Freden – первый признак того, что вас ждет путешествие в былую эпоху. В Книге рекордов Гиннеса зафиксировано, что это самый старый ресторан в

столице: таверна на этом месте была основана в 1722 году. Всего несколько десятилетий спустя появилась песня, увековечившая это заведение, – ее поют до сих пор. Неудивительно, что в 20 веке именно Den Gyldene Freden стал центром художественного движения. Своды первого этажа, резные потолки и канделябры, элегантные обеденные комнаты в стиле 18 века, - атмосфера этого здания пленяет воображение. Изучая традиционный Стокгольм, нельзя не сказать о шведских ремеслах, поскольку они являются неотъемлемым элементом культуры Швеции. Svensk Slöjd – это крошечная мастерская и магазин при ней, где в полной мере можно насладиться удивительными вещами ручной работы. Один из акцентов ассортимента традиционные деревянные лошадки dala, искусно расписанные узорами из вьющихся цветов. С 19 века этот вид прикладного творчества воспринимается как истинно шведский. Изначально игрушки, разумеется, предназначались детям, однако теперь они в равной степени радуют и взрослых, которым по душе необычные орнаменты. Кроме того, обратите внимание на расшитые подушки, ковры и одеяла из традиционной шерсти Skåne, а также многочисленные безделушки, статуэтки и броши. На фоне интенсивного развития авангардного дизайна, особенно интересно обнаружить, что же остается за пределами его внимания. Дизайн-студия Svenskt Tenn, основанная Эстрид Эриксон в 1924 году, работает исключительно с традиционными видами прикладного искусства. Под воздействием британского Движения искусств и ремесел, Эриксон отказалась от массового производства в пользу уникальных декоративных вещей ручной работы. И в наши дни этот подход по-прежнему процветает: мебель для салона вот уже 50 лет разрабатывают плотники города Смоланд лет, а все предметы из стекла, хлопка и шерсти создаются деревенскими мастерами вручную. globalblue.com
Поклонникам канцелярских товаров наверняка будет интересно побывать в очаровательном магазине Ljunggrens Pappershandel, основанном в 1913 году. В его ассортименте - тисненая бумага, блокноты с красивыми обложками, карты и марки. С другой стороны, ассортимент уважаемого универмага PUB полностью современный, однако само здание с впечатляющим фасадом 1882 года – архитектурная жемчужина: это самый старый торговый центр Стокгольма. После долгого дня прогулок по городу, побалуйте себя десертом в кондитерской Polkagriskokeri, основанной в 1859 году. Взглядам посетителей открывается целая фабрикой по производству разноцветных карамелек, которая бы точно понравилась Вилли Вонка. acnestudios.com, gyldenefreden.se, svenskslojd.se, svenskttenn.se, ljunggrenspapper.com, pub.se, gamlastanspolkagriskokeri.se 62: Carry A Classic
Ручная классика
Если над сумкой работает шведский дизайнер, то ее внешний вид определяется функциональностью. Джош Симс рассказывает о практичных и в то же время стильных, надежных и одновременно красивых аксессуарах Любовь к прогулкам на свежем воздухе и владение секретами практичного дизайна превратили Швецию в настоящего эксперта по красивым и в то же время функциональным сумкам. Это, конечно, неочевидное следствие, однако вся культура дизайна этих аксессуаров, которая процветает Швеции, подтверждает это. Один из ведущих представителей отрасли, марка Sandqvist, заявляет, что шведские сумки «для городской жизни и повседневного использования» созданы под воздействием «северной природы, с ее горами, озерами и просторными незаселенными территориями», - по крайней мере, так говорится в манифесте
119
марки. Воспринимайте их как противовес разрекламированным, переоцененным и крайне непрактичным IT-bag. «Мое понимание дизайна подразумевает возврат к функциональности, - так Антон Санквист характеризует свои разработки. - Это значит, что я не хочу ничего усложнять. На практике, я смотрю на сумку и думаю, что бы еще убрать из нее. Именно так исторически создаются вещи в северных странах: здесь всегда было важно, чтобы каждая вещь выполняла свою задачу, и люди могли быть уверены в ее надежности. Это осталось в культурном наследии и попрежнему проявляется в дизайне». Компания Sandqvist в следующем году отметит десятилетие. Сумки этой марки представляют собой квинтэссенцию принципов шведского дизайна: они детально проработаны, практичны и долговечны. Их шьют из канваса, кожи и более технологичных материалов, в частности, кордуры. Размер каждой модели тщательно продуман: они достаточно большие, чтобы в них все помещалось, но и не громоздкие, чтобы их было легко сочетать с различной одеждой. Хотя сами
формы, как правило, классические – рюкзак, мессенджер, чехол для ноутбука и тому подобное. То же самое можно сказать и о коллекции Udonly, разработанной мастером кожгалантереи Санной Бреммер. Источником вдохновения для ее стиля, известного своей простотой, стала сумка британского почтальона. Вариация Бреммер отличается от оригинала размерами и тканью – она шьется из кожи, выдубленной растительными экстрактами. åа свою первую модель дизайнер взялась по самой, пожалуй, прозаичной причине: ей нужно было носить с собой подгузники и прочие важные для малыша вещи. «У многих моих друзей были маленькие дети. Но ни у кого не было вместительной и красивой сумки, которую мог бы использовать и мужчина. Они пользовались чем-то вроде корзины для пикника, - рассказывает Бреммер о первой линии аксессуаров из канваса. – Конечно, мои модели не в авангарде модных трендов, но покупатели ценят их ясные силуэты и продуманность. Такая сумка должна прослужить целую вечность, ведь их не будут менять каждый сезон. И это, на
120
мой взгляд, вполне соответствует духу времени». Есть сумки и в коллекциях Acne, Hope и Whyred. Однако среди всего этого авангардного многообразия обращают на себя внимание более традиционные явления. Компания Palmgrens, например, была основана при поддержке мэра в 1896 году как седельная мастерская. А к 1950-м под этой маркой уже выпускались сумки из ротанговой сетки в кожаном обрамлении, ставшие современной классикой. Недавно бренд заключил партнерское соглашение с шведским архитектором Томасом Санделлом, что положило начало более современному подходу к аксессуарам. Марка Pap (Products And Philosophy), которая открылась всего четыре года назад, в полной мере вобрала в себя присущую шведскому стилю функциональность. Ее специализация - кожаные кейсы, в которых можно переносить любую технику. В арсенале компании есть даже специальный кошелек для хранения маленьких пластиковых пакетов, которые нужны при выгуле собак. Едва ли парижские или миланские компании вообще задумались бы о таких прозаичных, но очень полезных вещах. Однако неудивительно, что этим озаботилась марка Pap: ее основатель Ульф Пик учился промышленному дизайну и интерьерной архитектуре, а не моде. «Мы оставили все производство в Швеции, несмотря на дороговизну, потому что так мы можем контролировать всю выпускаемую продукцию, - делится Анна Пик, партнер Ульфа. – Но имеет значение не только способ производства. Мы уделяем внимание языку лаконичной, стильной формы. Ведь разработать простую вещь сложнее всего». Конечно, только внутри такой сильной культуры дизайна, как скандинавская, можно было бы вообще говорить о «языке лаконичной, стильной формы» по отношению к сумкам. sandqvist.net, udonly.com, acnestudios.com, hope-sthlm.com, whyred.se, palmgrens.se, papsweden.se globalblue.com

Чарли Нейдпат встретился с дизайнерами бренда Сегодня изделия многих шведских брендов, включая Cos, Acne и Cheap Monday можно встретить в торговых центрах по всему миру, от Лондона до Нью-Йорка. Теперь к этому списку можно с легкостью отнести шведскую марку Tiger of Sweden. Основанный в 1990-х годах бренд проделал немалый путь к своему успеху. Его продукция была всегда была рассчитана на средний сегмент рынка, в котором шведским дизайнерам сложно найти равных. Сверкающий бутик Tiger of Sweden, расположенный на стильной стокгольмской улочке Jakobsbergsgatan, довольно сильно контрастирует с простым, даже деревенским прошлым бренда. Его история началась в 1903 году благодаря Маркусу Шварцману и Яльмару Нордстрему, которые проживали тогда в крохотном городке Уддевалла, что на западном побережье Швеции. Они жили в то время, когда всякий, кто нуждался в новом костюме, обязательно отправлялся к портному, так было заведено. В один прекрасный день друзья решили в корне пересмотреть этот подход. Так началось производство уже готовых костюмов, не требующих многочисленных примерок и томительного ожидания. Одна из первых моделей получила название «Тигр», которое впоследствии хорошо прижилось. Постепенно бренд начал экспериментировать с кроем, различными материалами и фасонами, в итоге костюмы стали более элегантными и практичными. В 1993 году бренд получил новое рождение благодаря генеральному директору – Роджеру Тьернбергу, в котором не угасла идея переосмыслить понятие классического костюма, или как он выразился: «принести костюм из банка на улицу». Сегодня бренд располагает обширной сетью магазинов от Канады

до ЮАР, а в 2014 году планируется открытие новых магазинов в странах Азии. Большинство коллекций бренда создается дизайнерами Тине Грандаль и Шеной Невиль, которые описывают эстетику Tiger of Sweden как чистую, современную и строгую. Свидетельством тому служит весенняя коллекция из стильных курток, тренчей, аккуратных брюк и топов в нейтральных тонах белого и серого цвета. Исключением является серия мужских шотландских юбок, для тех, кто любит смелые образы. Женская коллекция костюмов, курток и миниплатьев выглядит весьма привлекательно и имеет ряд элементов, свойственных мужскому гардеробу. Дизайнеры согласны в том, что скандинавские страны оказывают исключительную поддержку начинающим брендам и инновационным проектам в сфере моды: «Скандинавия это идеальное место для новых марок,
стремящихся завоевать большую популярность. Также скандинавская эстетика отлично уживается с минималистичными трендами». Огромную роль в творческом процессе дизайнеров играет географическое положение шведской столицы: «Стокгольм состоит из множества маленьких островков, это придает ему особую атмосферу. Между городом и природой существует потрясающий контраст». В поисках вдохновения дизайнеры часто отправляются на прогулку по культурным местам Стокгольма, таким как городская фотогалерея Fotografska или музей Moderna Museet. Среди упомянутых ими мест также значится стокгольмский архипелаг и в особенности остров Готланд, для экскурсии на который как нельзя лучше подойдут удобная куртка в клетку и пара крепких сапог от Tiger of Sweden. tigerofsweden.com

76: Nature’s Bounty Подарок от Природы
Кэтти Янг рассказывает о новых косметических брендах Швеции, воплощающих в своей продукции типично шведскую любовь к природе Шведские косметические бренды не скрывают своей привязанности к национальному наследию. В основе их философии лежит истинно скандинавское, ясное и продуманное понимание красоты. В частности, марка Björk & Berries включает элементы северного дизайна в свое позиционирование. Своей задачей она считает «рассказывать мировой аудитории о шведских традициях индустрии красоты, разрабатывать современные, передовые экологичные и роскошные коллекции, состоящие из эксклюзивных и эффективных средств, связывая их с шведской природой, красотой и дизайном». Эти марки очень любят демонстрировать свою любовь ко всему шведскому: «Разумеется, мы гордимся тем, что нам удалось доказать свою успешность не только в родной стране, но и за ее пределами», - делится Мика Лииас, основатель компании Make Up Store. Еще одна марка декоративной косметики Face Stockholm также всегда активно подчеркивает свое шведское происхождение и индивидуальность. В частности, это одна из причин, почему вся продукция разрабатывается и продвигается внутри страны. globalblue.com
Эта философия находит отклик среди покупателей всего мира. За последние несколько лет Björk & Berries, Make Up Store и Face Stockholm вышли на международный рынок, пережив бурный успех у себя дома. В этот же список можно включить еще один выраженно шведский лейбл Emma S, который основала бывшая модель Эмма Виклунд (до замужества Шеберг – Sjöberg, отсюда S в названии). Интересно задаться вопросом, что же стоит за шведскими традициями в сфере красоты? С точки зрения Björk & Berries, «развитие косметики в этих краях обусловили суровые климатические условия, в которых приходится жить скандинавам». Ведь когда на улице метель, сохранить идеальную укладку невозможно: «Нам необходимо быть сильными и здоровыми, чтобы хорошо выглядеть в этих условиях. Шведское – это определение природной красоты». Идеальный цвет лица – вот главная задача шведской уходовой и декоративной косметики. Именно поэтому она так востребована в других странах. Face Stockholm и Make Up Store предлагают легкий способ достичь здорового и сияющего состояния кожи. Яркие баночки с тенями, румянами и помадой, а также хорошая основа для макияжа – отличная возможность проявить свой творческий потенциал через макияж. Для этой цели Make Up Store даже создал специальное пространство для взаимодействия клиентов и визажистов. Добиваться успеха косметическим брендам Швеции помогают забота о качестве и, когда это возможно, экороскошь. Еще один важный фактор называет Лииас: хорошая цена, которая соответствует ожиданиям покупателей. Студенты его школы мейк-апа постоянно искали качественную продукцию по доступной стоимости. И тогда ему в голову пришла идея основать новый бренд: «Меня вдохновил спрос среди визажистов на качественные средства, поэтому я создал компанию, которая способна предложить им то, что они искали», - делится он. Как правило, шведские компании
123
ответственно относятся и к этической стороне своей деятельности. Björk & Berries характеризует себя как «экологически роскошный бренд красоты, который связан с шведской природой и традициями». В парфюме White Forest сочетаются ароматы древесины и свежего лесного воздуха. Органический экстракт березы увлажняет, тонизирует и укрепляет кожу, поэтому он лежит в основе многих средств марки. А Green & Clean и Lingonberry Rose даже своим названием напоминают о шведском лесе. Björk & Berries, кстати, стремится воздать должное тем традициям, из которых черпает вдохновение. Штаб-квартира компании расположена в городе Евле, где в 19 веке четыре фабрики производили парфюм и мыло. Теперь современная компания стремится возродить индустрию красоты в этом регионе. Большое значение, конечно, играет и скандинавская внимательность к дизайну: продукция всегда упаковывается просто и в то же время очень красиво. Марка Björk & Berries объясняет это так: «Мистический пейзаж и глубокое чувство страсти породили здесь чувственный подход к искусству и дизайну». Париж, Лондон и другие модные столицы, разумеется, занимают ведущие позиции в сфере красоты. Однако Швеция последовательно и без лишней суеты доказывает: шведские бренды способны внести неповторимый вклад в индустрию. bjorkandberries.com, makeupstore.se, facestockholm.com, emmas.com

从欢歌庆祝的旧时代餐厅，到制作木马的小手工作 坊，Stephen Doig 从当地人视角为您介绍城中引 人入胜的文化遗产 作为崛起的前卫设计之都，斯德哥尔摩已然成为21 世纪的小众创新典范。其时尚业的影响遍布世界各 地；城中居民也无不是前卫着装的先驱。在这片摩 登图景中，很容易忽略城市中的历史元素，那老式 的飞檐带出的传统魅力。然而斯德哥尔摩的许多先 锋设计品牌，都透露出对于历史的深深敬意，Acne 的旗舰店坐落在一座前身为银行的18世纪建筑中。 踏上追索这些建筑的旅途，你会发现旧时的斯堪的 纳维亚仍活在这座城市中。 Gamla Stan 意为老城区，由中世纪建筑和鹅 卵石街道构成，其中最古老的部分可以追溯到公元 800 年。老斯德哥尔摩的回响回荡于Stortorget 之 上，这座城市古老广场的四周林立着漆成深褐色和 橙色调的美丽商铺。在这里找不到任何玻璃或反 光钢材。老城区还拥有皇家宫殿，哥特式教堂和部 分城中最古老的机构。 Den Gyldene Freden的老式百叶窗和外墙的 斑驳痕迹，揭示通往另一个时代的隧道。根据吉尼 斯世界纪录，这是该市最古老的餐厅。它在1722 年 建立时是一家客栈，曾在许多歌曲中被交口传唱， 故其在斯德哥尔摩地区的地位无可动摇。在 20 世 纪它成为了城中艺术运动的中心。从隧道形拱顶的 地下一层，全弧形天花板与蜡烛座，到散发18 世纪 优雅的上层包厢，这是座迷人的联排建筑。
要观察斯德哥尔摩的传统面，作为国家文化重 要组成部分的瑞典手工艺不容忽视。Svensk Slöjd 是一座微型工作室，在这里洋溢着手工制造的欢欣 气氛。这里出售的传统dala马，绘有精美的花卉图 案。这些原本为孩子设计的玩具，从19 世纪起已成 为一门瑞典国民工艺，如今是寻求别致装饰物的成 年人的心头好。这里其他引人注目的手工制品还包 括刺绣靠垫，地毯和用传统羊毛编织的毛毯，以及 小饰品、小雕像和胸针。 在瑞典设计的前沿世界，了解并非所有都是由 创新所驱动，无疑是令人欣慰的。Estrid Ericson 自从1924 年创立设计品牌 Svenskt Tenn 以来，就 一直延续着这种对手工艺和传统的尊重。从过去到 现在，工艺都是品牌不可或缺的组成部分：受到英 国工艺美术运动的激励，Ericson宣布放弃大规模 生产，以保护装饰性极强的、独特手工作品。 文具爱好者们必须取道 Ljunggrens Pappershandel，去发现其美丽绝伦的装饰纸。这 个成立于1913年的迷人商店，提供精致的压花纸、 彩印笔记本、贺卡和邮票。与此形成鲜明对比的， 是斯德哥尔摩的百货公司PUB，虽说贩售的商品都 相当摩登，但百货公司的建筑却堪称历史瑰宝。成 立于1882 年的PUB，是城中最古老的百货公司，其 建筑外墙气势恢弘得恰如其分。 经过一整天的观光，不妨在 G a m l a St a n 的 Pol k ag r iskoker i 享受甜 意，这家糖果店成立于 1859 年，仍在现场设有一座 Willy Wonka 式的工 厂，专门为该店制作糖果。

瑞典设计师在进行包袋设计时，总是将功能置于形 式之前。Josh Sims 为您介绍一系列实用但不失时 尚的精美耐用配件
拥抱户外与大自然的传统，与源远流长的设 计历 史，能否让一个国家专于设计美丽但实用的包袋？ 人们对此或许有些争议，但瑞典的背包文化似乎天 生孕育了这样的设计。事实上，该国的领军品牌之 一 Sandqvist 指出：本品牌包袋“适合城市生活方 式，以及每天日常使用”的宣言，是源自“北欧的自然 风光，以及那里的山，湖泊和广阔的无人区”。试想一 下，这就是过度依赖市场营销、大肆宣传、华而不实 的潮流It包的对立面。 “我在设计中永远会回到功能性这个原点—— 回答‘我想要用这个包干什么？’这个问题， ”公司创始 人 Anton Sandqvist 说道，该品牌明年将庆祝其10 周年生日。 “换言之这意味着你不想要任何复杂的东 西。事实上，当你看着一个设计，你只会想还能去掉 些什么。这就是北欧国家的传统工作方式——人们 必须自力更生，他们做的一切都是为了某个特定目 的、不得不做。这一传统在今日的设计中仍旧清晰 可见。” globalblue.com
Sandqvist 的包包凝炼了瑞典包袋设计原则： 深思熟虑，在正确的地方装口袋；耐磨损，老化后依 旧得体；使用帆布、皮革和 Cordura 之类的高科技 面料制造；尺寸体贴— —空间大到够实用，但不会 过大而不能轻松携带；基本都是经典式样——双肩 背包、斜挎包、笔记本电脑包等。 类似的还有Sanna Bremmer创立的Udonly系 列，其最知名的一款简约包款，灵感来源于某种古 老的英国邮差包——Bremmer 的愿景是小规模生 产，使用有机化处理的植物鞣革。Bremmer也设计 小皮件，她设计第一款包袋的初衷非常简单；就是 需要一个好看的包袋，可以携带尿布和随同的婴儿 换尿布用具。 “我有很多有孩子的朋友，但没有为他们设计 的，兼具实用与美观，或让男人也愿意使用的包袋。 所有的产品看起来都像是野餐包， ”本季推出了首 个帆布包系列的Bremmer 表示。 “当然，我的包并 不追逐新潮— —但顾客们欣赏它们的简练线条与 合理结构。它们是可以使用一辈子的包，不是每季 淘汰的产品。这个观念对于当下这个时代似乎也适 用。” 瑞典的诸多配件公司如Acne, Hope和Whyred 制 造 包 袋 等 时 髦 配 饰。其 中的 一 些 品 牌 更 为 传 统，如 在 18 9 6 年成 立，初 创 时为马 鞍 制 造商 的 Palmgrens，多亏了时任斯德哥尔摩市长的扶持， 品牌在1950 年代推出了经典摩登的招牌手提袋， 以及藤条固定皮革帧工艺，又归功于与瑞典建筑师 Thomas Sandell的合作，近几年Palmgrens在产 品生产上采取了更为现代的方法。 许多瑞典包袋品牌风格中不可或缺的实用元 素，在Pap（产品与哲学）或许得到了集中体现。推 出仅四年的Pap，专门制造存放个人电子用品的皮 件，同时还有一系列优质的“Poop Purses”——专 门用来存放清理狗粪的塑料袋的小包。这是一款 在巴黎或米兰都无从觅得的实用设计。不出所料的 是，Pap的创始人Ulf Pyk并非配饰设计出身，而是 专于内舱设计，产品设计和室内建筑设计。 “我们 所有的产品都在瑞典生产，虽然这代价高昂，但意 味着我们可以完全掌控产品的制造过程， ”Ulf 的合 “然而，尽管我们注 伙人，Pap的Anna Pyk 表示。 重产品的制作方式，但运用简练、时尚的设计语言 也同样重要。最简单的东西往往最难设计好。”这点 千真万确。但只有在设计文化强盛如斯堪的纳维亚 半岛的地方，人们才有可能将“时尚设计语言”与一 个包袋联系起来。 sandqvist.net , udonly.com, acnestudios.com, hope-sthlm.com, whyred.se, palmgrens.se, papsweden.se

哥尔摩群岛和哥特兰岛的离岛。一件来自Tiger of Sweden 的简洁格子夹克与一双坚固的靴子，将会 是去那里探险的绝佳装备。
T i g e r o f S w e d e n 是 全 国 领 先 的 时 尚品 牌 之 一。Charlie Neidpath 拜访了其设计师 今日，从伦敦到纽约的商场里，瑞典风 格都 有其 独特的一席之地，特别是 COS ，Ac ne 和 C heap M o n d a y 领 头 掀 起了这 股 国 际风 潮。现 在另一 个名字可被加入这片时尚星空：那就是Tiger of Sweden。 该品牌目前已成功打入中端市场，即瑞典设计 师脱颖而出的领域，自品牌与1990年代重新发布以 来，正在日益壮大。 夺人眼球的Tiger of Sweden瑞典店，位于斯德 哥尔摩的Jakobsbergsgatan，一条汇集了城中最时 尚年轻人的街道，这与品牌的质朴开端形成鲜明对 比。在西海岸边海风吹拂的乌德瓦拉农村，Marcus Schwartzman与Hjalmar Nordström 着手重塑 1903年以来的裁剪方式。曾几何时人们去店里定制 西服，必须选择面料和进行量身。他们二人开始制 造可以精细调节的成衣西服模型，一些最早的模型 被命名为Tiger与moniker stuck。不久，品牌就开 始试验创新剪裁，使其更修身、更干练，并开始调整 面料生产工序。 经过1980 年代的蛰伏期，品牌被首席执行官 Roger Tjernberg重新发布，旨在继续改良和重新 诠释经典剪裁，正如 Tjernberg 的优雅措辞所言， “ 将西装从银行里解放，使其走向大街”。今日，品牌 分店覆盖从加拿大到南非等地，并计划在2014 年于 亚洲开设一系列店铺。 品牌当下的诸多设计工作，都是由设计师 Tine G r a nd a h l 与 Shen a Nev i l le 担当的，他们解释 道，Tiger of Sweden的美学就是干净、摩登与度身 定制。这在春季系列中显而易见，白垩色，鸽子灰与 中性色调被使用在品牌的招牌夹克、挺括风衣、利 落格子长裤和上衣之中（这是不愿冒险的男性，在 特定场合的必备套装）。女装系列则干练利索、透露 着阳刚意味，用时髦的西服外套与夹克来搭配迷你 裙。 二人一致认为，斯堪的纳维亚地区对于羽翼未 丰的品牌的支持，和对创新时尚理念的理解，都十 分独特。 “这里善于制造新品牌并助其获得成功。斯 堪的纳维亚美学也完美符合极简的潮流。” 对于两位设 计师 而 言，城 市与众不同的地 理 位 置 是 他们创作过程的关键。“由于斯德哥尔摩 包括许多岛屿，其都有着自己独特的性格。城市与 自然之间有一种特殊的对比。”设计师们往往会前 往文化热点寻求灵感，譬如市内顶尖的摄 影画廊 Fotografiska，或是当代美术馆。他们还提到斯德
