You are Fashion!
About ten years ago, people started talking about the Swedish "Fashion Wonder". According to Sweden.Se opinions differ as to what this actually means. Is it a reference to Acne's fairytale success, to the huge quantities of clothing that H&M sells worldwide, or to artistic, avant-garde fashion? One thing is clear, to the Swedish Fashion industry, everyone is Fashion! In order for you to find out for yourself you can now win one week in Sweden, all inclusive! You will be given the opportunity to meet prominent members of the Swedish Fashion industry and make up your own mind as to why Sweden is a "Fashion Wonder".
