In an exclusive collaboration with designer Louise Xin, the Textile Fashion Center and students from the Textile University in Borås, the Royal Swedish Opera presented on 7 September 2023 a brand-new collection of unique pieces created out of old stage costumes of the opera house.

130 guests gathered in the Golden Foyer of the Royal Swedish Opera to attend the fashion show, introducing state-of-the-art pieces, equally innovative as sustainable. The guests also had the opportunity to buy the creations, as well as other hand-picked costume treasures from the Opera's archives and collections. All proceeds from this project went to the Young Opera Fund, which develops and supports Young Opera activities at the Royal Swedish Opera.

On this occasion, Fredrik Lindgren, the Royal Swedish Opera's CEO, and Ellen Lamm, Artistic Director of the RSO, wholeheartedly highlighted the importance of introducing culture to children at an early stage in life.
