I know Jen already mentioned it, but I think it's exciting enough to repeat: the Nordic Fashion Biennale opens tomorrow! (If you're a museum member, you can go tonight.)

A joint production between the Nordic House in Reykjavik, Iceland, and our local Nordic Heritage Museum, the biennale's highlight is the exhibition Looking Back to Find Our Future, curated by Icelandic/New York–based artist Hrafnhildur Arnardottir. Arnardottir has collaborated with Björk and has work at MoMA. There will also be a fashion competition whose winners will win trips to Iceland, a screening of Icelandic film Rabbit Hole, and fashion and jewelry from Denmark, the Faroe Islands, Finland, Greenland, Iceland, Sweden, and Norway. If you're bracing for the coming cold and wet, embrace it instead here at the we-are-way-freezinger-and-darker-than-you museum.

Also, they are not being overserious, as evidenced by volcano jokes. Apparently opening night will feature "Live music, decadent treats and volcanic cocktails!"
