SKAPPEL ♥ EMMA STEINBAKKEN

Sometimes you meet people with whom you feel an immediate connection. Emma was one of those people for me. She is open, honest, vulnerable, and unpretentious — qualities I deeply admire, feel inspired by, and can relate to myself.

And who says collaboration can’t happen across different forms of expression? Emma expresses her creativity through words and melody, while my creative universe is shape and color. It has been incredibly inspiring to weave these two creative forces together.

Both Emma’s song “FOR ALLTID TYPE TING” and the sweater from our collaboration convey something we all sometimes need more than anything else: a warm embrace from someone we trust. 

The place where both Emma and I feel safest and most connected to ourselves is the small archipelago of Koster, to which we both feel a strong bond. That’s why I was inspired to design a sweater drawing from the beautiful natural elements that are so characteristic of the islands we both hold dear. So when Emma was going to name the garment, Koster felt like the most natural choice.
