Þúsund Þakkir presents Fashion Show II – Glory in Fagraskógur.

Akureyri’s Summer Artist and fashion designer Guðmundur Tawan is the creative mind behind Glory in Fagraskógur.
The project draws inspiration from the Heart of Akureyri, the lyrical romanticism of Davíð Stefánsson from Fagraskógur, and the natural folklore collected by Jón Árnason.
The result is a fairytale set in Akureyri—where flowers, hearts, birds, and creatures from Icelandic folk tales are woven together.

The show will feature exclusively women’s clothing, and the audience will get to see unique garments showcasing weaving, knitting, hand-stitching, tailoring, and dressmaking.

The event is supported by the VERÐANDI Art Fund, a collaborative project between the Town of Akureyri, Hof Cultural and Conference Center, and the Akureyri Cultural Society.
