Touring the world with ABBA

Outlook

Available for over a year

In the 1970s the Swedish group ABBA dominated the charts around the world. They're still one of the best selling artists of all time. The band were famous for their over the top costumes - featuring huge flared trousers, teetering platform shoes and tonnes of sequins. An exhibition called Super Troupers featuring some of those costumes is currently running at London's Southbank Centre, and more are on show at the ABBA Museum in Stockholm, where the Creative Director and Curator is Ingmarie Halling. She's a great choice for the job because she used to help the band get dressed when they were on the road. But how do you get a job like that? Image: Abba Credit: 麻豆社
