Angry beauty

December 9, 2011 by Denise Felton 1 Comment

Why is this dignified woman sporting an Angry Birds evening gown? She is Teija Vesterbacka, wife of the CEO of Rovio, makers of the Angry Birds game. The gown was designed by Katri Niskanen, who won Finland’s first Project Runway competition in 2009. Is the dress pieced, appliqued, both? Who cares. It’s fabulous. Many thanks to Lauren of Crafty Crafty for sharing this find.

    I love the dress! A very creative way to showcase their ‘invention’. She looks like a million bucks. Heck, a princess even! Oh, maybe the Queen of the Angry Birds!

    Thanks for sharing that. I had no idea ‘they’ came from Finland.
