Steinunn Sigurd's STEiNUNN fashions are a New York
Cool favorite; Sigurd designs a beautifully elegant
and evocative line of clothing, the perfect costumes
for the romantic "movie in your mind."
New York Cool writer Julia Sirmons
was the first writer to cover STEiNUNN
for New York Cool back in June of 2007. Corey
Ann Haydu then covered the STEiNUNN
Presentation in the fall of September.
And the beat goes on: We just received an email
from Abe Gurko of Abe New York telling us that:
"Icelandic designer Steinunn Sigurd has won
this year’s prestigious Torsten and Wanja
Söderberg Prize, representing exceptional critical
acclaim for her work in fashion design. The prize
was announced today by Ted Hesselbom, director of
the Rohsska Museum, Göteborg, at a special
reception and will be presented at a gala ceremony
in Göteborg [Sweden] on November 4, 2008. An
exhibition of Steinnun’s work will then run
from November 5, 2008 through February 22, 2009
at the Rohsska Museum."
Congratulations to Steinunn Sigurd
on her continuing success. For more information
