One of the dresses that was stolen in connection with an exhibition at Millesgården in Stockholm has been found.

The owner of the party dress, the artist Lisa Nilsson, shares the news herself on Instagram.

"Rejoicing news. On inexplicable roads, my dress was just found in a property on Kungsholmen in Stockholm.”

It was a property manager who made the discovery in connection with the inspection of the property's fans. Someone had broken into the property's common room and temporarily settled there, and among personal belongings, the dress was unpacked from its cover and hung on a hanger, the singer continues.

"I am infinitely grateful for this unlikely timing and coincidence", the singer writes and urges everyone to keep an eye out for the remaining four stolen dresses.

The dresses were part of the exhibition "Extas - the Swedish diva worshipped by Robert Fux" where about 60 well-known Swedish artists were celebrated. When the garments were to be returned to their owners last week, they were stolen from a subcontractor's car.

Among the garments were, in addition to Lisa Nilsson's dress, also Malena Ernman's "La Voix" dress and a creation belonging to Lars-Åke "Babsan" Wilhelmsson.
