FINLAND 2012 - Pernilla - När jag blundar

[evilperson]

She's great, I think it will stand out amongst all of the madness in semi 1.

 

[GRE]

The only thing that worries me is that Finland is after a ballad (Belgium) and this is not good.

Cute and atmospheric. One of my favourites this year. 7 points.

Without Sweden in it's semi-final, it'll struggle & might have to rely on the judges but this is fast becoming my favourite entry - just stunning!

They should. And if they have enough support to qualify from first semi they could to quite well in the final too, since Sweden and Estonia (probably Finland's biggest supporters) are in the second semi.

Just been watching some YouTube videos, a lot of people are putting this as a qualifier - hope so!

Description about Pernilla's dress !

Niskanen wants to make space with her dress to Pernilla's naturality and tenderness. ”I wanted to make a dress, which supports Pernilla's tenderness, but something what where is little contrast and something surprising”

Idea of the dress became from the song and the song's feeling. Niskanen says that she have listened the song all over again, which gave her inspiration: ”Girl in pond”. ”Dress is sensitive, natural, and modern”.

Jadegreen dress is a unique piece and made just for Pernilla. The top is shaped with plenty of chiffon. Cross-wrapped green and black strips makes one shoulder good fitted top. Soft and freely shaped hem where even wind can grab. Hem is shorter from front and in behind it falls a long pond-like train.

Material of the dress is silkchiffon, which have been used dozens of metres. Niskanen says that she made the dress in dozens of hours.

Womens cooperation have been go well. ”I like Katris designs and her handmade. I trust to her vision totally”, Pernilla says. Pernilla and Katri first talked about the ideas together, and they found the same opinions soon. ”It's have been really nice to work with Pernilla”, Niskanen joys.

The dress is going to be an important aspect of the performance, is she keeping the dancer or not?
