Cheap Art Party 2.0

Before all party-mayhem breaks loose tomorrow night in Copenhagen thought we could take a quick look at what our Cheap Monday staff got up to during the Cheap Art Party in Stockholm not so long ago!

We were there with bells on (technically glow-sticks)! We pre-partied at the office with a couple of drinks, food and what has become one of our favorite (Friday) past times a music quiz!

A quick trip and drink on the party bus and then we partied to our hearts’ content.

Our very own Carl, Buyer for all that is Denim, played the tracks that got the party started!

Things got a little silly for Karin and Gabbie in the red smoke room!

Our queen of all that is underwear, Marinette celebrated in glowing style! And was ready with Cheap cash in hand to spend at the bar!

Cutie pies Lisa, Hanna and Andy getting their fluorescent drink on!

And now at this very moment our PR wizards Sofie and Erik are in Copenhagen whipping up the Cheap Art Party 2.0! The party is tomorrow and it should be just as legendary as the first! Pictures from that party are coming soon!

 

 

 

Loppis a la Mode!

For the best combination of fashion and bargains come to Stockholm’s main event of the weekend – the Loppis á la Mode!

A gang of fashion designers, stylists and buyers have teamed up to take over Skrapans Basar Under this Sunday only! They have scavenged in their overly full closets to sell out everything they can bear to part with at crazy cheap prices! So if you happen to be anywhere in the Stockholm area take a detour to Södermalm to make some fashion bargains! The shopping begins 11AM!

Hope to see you there!

Cheap Art Party exposed!

We had SOOOOOOO much fun at the Cheap Art Party! Everyone was literally glowing with glow sticks hanging strategically from different places on their outfits and glow cups filled to the brim with fun cocktails in their hands! Plus all the laser-ness that was going on in conjunction with the installation by Frederik Heyman.

The location was so much fun, the abandoned laboratory… And people loved the very mystical red smoke room. The DJs got the guests dancing and Cheap Monday dollars were flowing freely at the bar.

Thanks to all who partied with us in celebration of our fabulous Underwear collection! And for those of you who missed it check out the rest of the pics on our website!

Next stop Copenhagen for Party number 2!

There are only a few hours left until we get the Cheap Art Party started! We have transformed the abandonded laboratory to be party ready. Feel free to enter the red room… See ya there!

Cheap Art Party!

We are so excited that now we can truly wear Cheap Monday from Head to Toe! So excited in fact that we are throwing a party to celebrate the launch of our Underwear line! The PR department has been busy busy making it a party to remember, and we aren’t throwing just one but 2 to celebrate to the max!

The first party is TOMORROW, in Stockholm! And everyone at the office will be sure to make an appearance, along with a few hundred Stockholm hipsters. Cheap Monday has taken over an abandoned laboratory and flown in the fabulous Frederik Heyman from Antwerp to transform the space with an amazing installation that just happens to feature our Underwear collection!

Here is just a little teaser of what the night will bring:

Hope to see you there!

Cheap Interview HK via STHLM

This week at the office we had a super special visitor. Wing flew in from Hong Kong for the week for some important meetings. It was fun having her here, and for some of us it was great to finally put a face to the name! But you guys will only get to see her neck!
