Fashionistas

Everyone who's ever been to Trondheim during the winter, can attest to this: it can get cold. Really, really cold. So cold that it can be terribly difficult to describe to someone who's never left the Southern Hemisphere. During ISFiT, the city will be visited by students with little to no experience with sub-zero temperatures, and they desperately need warm winter clothes. Not to worry though, we've got it covered.

In the last couple of weeks, we've been collecting old jackets, coats, scarves and hats from basements and attics across town, and the result is a, um, mixed bag of fashion. Not that we're complaining, we're happy as long as the clothes are warm. As Ragnhild demonstrates, any boring old jacket can be spruced up with a colourful scarf. And isn't mint green making a fashion comeback these days anyway?

This one is actually quite nice. So nice, in fact, that Ola wondered if he could take it home once the festival is over.

It's the details on the back of Daniel's jacket that really makes it stand out. There really are plenty of hidden treasures in the nooks and crannies of Trondheim.

This, however, is the crown jewel, the cream of the crop, the centrepiece of the collection. This is the jacket that has everything, and to be honest, we're slightly jealous of whoever gets to wear this for ten days.
