Sara Skogøy (b. 1994) has a BA from fashion and costume design from the National Academy of the Arts, Oslo. Sara Skogøy is all about the politics of fashion. Working at the intersection of art and fashion, she explores class, sexuality and satire. Her theatrical approach lets her explore the fashion format as a performance, seeking out the camp in mundane everyday life.

In 2020 Skogøy won the Peoples Choice Award at The Autumn Exhibition with her work “My Dad went to Syden and all I got was this lousy bead-top”.
