Sigrun

Welcome to my page.

I am Sigrun, an Icelandic designer living in North London. Being Icelandic, my bed night stories didn´t come from Disney fairy tales but were adventures of Norse mythology and tales of trolls, elves and hidden people. I'm highly tuned with my heritage, culture and customs and seek inspiration from the personifications of natural wonders entangled with human emotion, history and characteristics. 

I work both with high fashion and costumes, creating anything from outfits to headpieces.   

I entered the world of fashion via leather craft as I learned to mould and print on leather, creating some head turning hats, bags and other accessories. I first hit the catwalks in 2015 when I collaborated with another designer and in summer 2016, I received a request for a collection of whole looks for a UNESCO heritage site catwalk at a Mythological Art Festival in Denmark. Arriving to Denmark, we made the headlines with our mixture of mythology and fashion and since then, I have the bug. :) I simply love creative shoots! 

My time is limited but I do love the creation magic which occurs with a good collaboration so am usually happy to work with other creatives on a TFP basis.
