@theaengelbrektsson isn’t a typical influencer partner. Rather than turn to the 22-year-old Irish creator to promote their products directly, brands like Ruggable, Amazon Prime Video and Burberry are tapping von Engelbrechten to weave their products into her ongoing @sylvaniandrama TikTok series, in which she uses miniature animal dolls to act out melodramatic—and often darkly comedic—storylines of infidelity, violence and mental illness.
