A heated discussion under the hashtag Swedengate erupted on social media last spring. Swedes were accused of being strange as they did not invite their children’s friends to eat with them when the family was having dinner.

Riksbanken rekordhöjer räntan – energipriserna skjuter i höjden. Hur påverkar bistrare ekonomiska tider hur vi klär oss? Historiskt sett har recession inte inneburit att vi slutat klä oss elegant. Däremot har vi återanvänt kostsamma festkläder och istället köpt enskilda lyxprodukter.
