Exactly 50 years ago, tesa was already setting trends - not only with innovative product solutions, but also with a series of unusually cheeky and fresh commercials about an imaginative young DIY talent named Kati. In almost a dozen TV ads, the smart girl appeared on German television and, in a figurative sense, showed her parents "how things are done". In the years that followed the 1968 movement, which redefined society’s image of women, tesa hit the "nerve of the age" with a hands-on and creative girl as a role model and brand ambassador. For this year's fiftieth anniversary, we want to jump back with you to 1972 and give you a glimpse of our Kati classics and her skills at redesigning your home with tesa. Curtain up for Kati.
