Ninia LaGrande and Christoph: A Stylish Parenting Duo

Ninia LaGrande, a well-known moderator and author, alongside Christoph, also known as @grosses_rotes_auto, form one of Hannover's most fashionable couples, potentially even in all of Germany. While Christoph teaches biology, chemistry, and drama at a gymnasium, the pair enjoys exploring Europe in their distinctive red car.

What brings you joy right now? Ninia shares her happiness stems from sunny days, delicious burgers, and the anticipation of hitting the road again in their camper. Christoph finds joy in good music, engaging series, and a lighter workload with fewer corrections to make.

What frustrates you currently? Ninia expresses her anger towards the rise of Nazism, the new coalition agreement, and blatant racism on television. Christoph mirrors this sentiment, voicing his concerns about the resurgence of the far-right in Germany.

What are you proud of? Ninia beams with pride over her child, whom she describes as a “cool kid.” She also takes pride in managing her life well under challenging circumstances.

Where do you feel most at home? Ninia enjoys being in bed, relaxing on a chair outside their camper, at the beach, or hiking in the mountains. Christoph prefers being outdoors or lounging on the sofa.

Favorite spots in your city? Ninia loves visiting Linden, especially for a matcha latte at Panea or indulging in a great burger at Butjer. She is also a fan of attending games at the stadium. Christoph shares her fondness for Butjer, enjoys all the ice cream cafes in Linden, and appreciates the Dornröschen beer garden and Gretchen restaurant.

How would you describe your style? Ninia finds it hard to label her style but describes it as sporty, punk, and skater-inspired, with a feminine twist. Christoph sees his style as athletic, admitting he hasn’t quite grown up in that department.

Why is fashion important to you? For Ninia, fashion serves as a form of self-expression. She enjoys curating outfits that reflect her moods and set her apart from the crowd. Christoph echoes this sentiment, stating that fashion allows him to stand out from the typical teacher's attire.

What would you save for over the next ten years? Ninia humorously mentions saving for retirement but is uncertain about the future of the planet in a decade. Christoph, on the other hand, admits he lacks the patience for saving.

What piece of clothing from your youth do you still own? Christoph proudly holds onto his kilt, denim vest, and a hoodie featuring Pennywise.

What was your latest clothing purchase? Ninia recently bought a home jersey from Hannover 96, taking advantage of a sale. Christoph picked up a vest from Olow at Salon Weekend in Linden.

How do you want to be buried? Christoph humorously states he prefers to be buried in his birthday suit, noting it’s fully biodegradable.

What’s your daily must-have? Ninia can’t go without her lipstick and leopard print, while Christoph currently enjoys wearing beaded necklaces.

What are you both wearing?

Ninia describes her outfit as entirely Adidas, with vintage sunglasses she bought in London while attending an NFL game with her husband, child, and best friend. She enjoys the comfort and versatility of Adidas clothing, which she mixes and matches for both casual and stage appearances.

Christoph is dressed in wide trousers and a vest from Loom, with a jacket from Element and Nike shoes. He finds the loose-fitting trousers comfortable and appreciates the practicality of the vest during transitional weather.

Thank you, Christoph and Ninia!
