At the World Meeting of SWEA in Amsterdam earlier this month, “The Hug” – a dress that honours SWEA’s 45 years of bringing Swedish women together in lifelong friendships across the globe was presented. Each fabric piece, lovingly submitted by SWEA members and chapters worldwide, was brought to life in a fantastic SWEA Dress by Helena Berggren of SWEA Philadelphia.
This dress is more than fabric—it’s a symbol of love, stories, and the unbreakable bond between women who’ve left Sweden but found family in each other. With every piece, it carries the warmth of countless hugs exchanged over 45 years and the promise of many more. A tribute to forever worldwide friendship. | | Get Ready for the 2024 Member Survey! |
