ABOUT CAYA
“For us, the crucial thing is that you are here, YOU with the individualistic spirit who dares to be yourself”
Born in 1914, coming to Grandma, Ingeborg, on røst was an wonderful experience from childhood. The house, the stones, the people, and the atmosphere left a lasting impression. The story goes that the people at Røst have always been especially hospitable, as written by Pietro Querini in 1432 (you should read his story. Google it!- and explore how he ended up on Røst).
Coming to Grandma was always a delightful experience. The creative and welcoming atmosphere was ever-present. She was a businesswoman with a vast network of contracts at home and abroad. Her house was open to everyone, hosting a diverse range of guests from politicians and artists to traders and fishermen. Wonderful parties were a regular occurrence, featuring good food and drinks.
She was affectionately called the “Queen of RØST and Stoccafisso”. The question on how to dress would often arise, but for Ingeborg, the most important thing was to be present, not how you dressed.
“COME AS YOU ARE” was her mantra”.
In the spirit of Grandma Ingeborg, we have chosen this phrase as the name of our collection. For us, the crucial thing for us is that you are here, YOU with the individualistic spirit who dares to be yourself. Dress as you wish, and you won´t be anonymous. Stand out in the crowd.
We invite you to: Come as you are. Dress as you wish. Stand out in the crowd.
Have self-confidence and be a good fellow human being, just like Ingeborg.
Greetings from
Anna & Georg
