Episode 62 - What a Conversation with Erika Ökvist! [Interview]

Make-up brushes at the ready, Rae. We should like to try something a little different tonight. Join us as we welcome Erika Ökvist for a discussion of her exquisite work as Hair and Make Up Designer of Bridgerton Season 3. As Erika reveals her journey from aspiring princess to an Emmy award-winning designer, we’ll be slipping on the banana peel of creativity to explore the importance of artistic experimentation, storytelling through details and why inspiration can be found in the most unlikely of places. Erika will be taking us through the day in the life of a busy Bridgerton set, tackling tattoos, heatwaves and the deadliest sin of them all: gossiping. Elsewhere, we’ll be visiting Featherington House to discover the secrets of a Mayfair starlet and why true love really is the silk lining in our very own woollen coats. And as the Season 3 winds blow our favourite traveller ashore, we’ll be swooning over pirate coats, sea swept waves and one very tousled emotional support curl. After all: Colin Bridgerton, your eyebrows are the most remarkable shape of seagull wings. * Follow Erika on Instagram: @erika_okvist_makeup_designer Show Notes: Crumbs Russh: Interview with Yerin Ha W Magazine: Interview with Jonathan Bailey Elle Italia: Interview with Jonathan Bailey Entertainment Weekly: Feature on ‘Jurassic World Rebirth’ People: Interview with Simone Ashley Sky: The Night Before Christmas in Wonderland Radio Times: Interview with Nicola Coughlan Pink News: Interview with Jessica Madsen YouTube: Shondaland Behind-the-Scenes IG: Bridgerton nominated at Make-up Artists & Hair Stylists Guild Awards IG: Bridgerton nominated at Costume Designers Guild Awards Netflix: Bridgerton FYC Deadline: Interview with Kris Bowers for ‘The Wild Robot’ Bath & Body Works: Bridgerton Candle – Colin’s Return Funko!
