episode 12 - Katrín Káradottir

About two years ago I happened to see a short interview with a Icelandic woman on the Swedish TV-show Kobra. I don't really remember what it was about, but I think it was about sustainable fashion. The woman that they spoke to was described as a "fashion designer and Icelandic guide" and that sparked my interest. I wrote her name down and when I this winter planned my trip to Iceland I contacted her.Meet the very interesting fashion designer and Icelandic guide Katrín Káradottir who shares her time between teaching at the Icelandic Academy of the Arts and at Icelandic Mountain Guides where guiding on Greenland is one of her specialties.Hear about her childhood, about becoming a young mother, her way into fashion and jobs at Christian Dior. About refusing to be limited by what society expects of a woman and how the water smells on Greenland.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/husky. Hosted on Acast.
