When you hear the high heels clicking down the street you know it’s that time of the year again. Fashion Week takes over the city, keeping Copenhagen’s fashionistas busy with giant shows, trade fairs and the craziest after-show parties.
Three days of runway shows presented the new trends for Spring/Summer 2016 and one thing’s for sure: it will not be a boring summer in fashion terms.
Light colours (Henrik Vibskov), a lot of linen and leather (Anne Sofie Madsens) and long classical cuts (Ole Yde) conquered the runway and set the stage for a season full of classical, quiet elegance with a special twist– exactly what the Copenhagen fashion scene is known for.
And what would Fashion Week be without some new model faces? The spotlight was on Regitze Christensen – who walked for Lala Berlin – and Frederike Sofie. Both are young Danish models kicking off international careers who have been working for Louis Vuitton and Valentino.
And now that you know what you will be wearing next season, you can start counting down to the next days of inspiration. Fashion Week will return from 3-5 February 2016. See you there!
Lala Berlin: The German brand had its breakthrough in Denmark just recently, but is now a well established part of the Danish fashion scene. The collection – inspired by oriental architecture – was a great success in Berlin and nothing less in Copenhagen.
The Danish royals’ favourite brand showed the first part of its collection ‘Parfum Exotique’ on the runway in Copenhagen. The second one will be shown in Paris, and one should be excited. Classical cuts, combined with some magnificent jewellery from Georg Jensen made the show and the line one of a kind.
The men’s fashion label Asgar Juel Larsen showed its collection `Ecstatic Lust´. Precisely designed cuts in wild tropical patterns and big jackets that evoked an army style were perceived very positively, promising a colourful next season of men’s fashion.
Lace by Stasia: Made a comeback with off-the shoulder blouses, laces and very feminine dresses.
Copenhagen fashion icon Henrik Vibskov showed his collection on a spectacular runway setting that brought to mind a modern interpretation of a forest. The line consisted of black, white and sand colours with extravagant cuts, layers and and a great swimsuit collection.
When the lights on the runway turned off, the ones on the rooftops went on for some long nights talking about fashion, networking and dancing.
Record narcotics seizures at the Danish-German border in 2023, followed by hundreds of kilos’ worth of drug finds in Sjælland this year, are forcing authorities to question whether Denmark is a means to an alternate drug market in Europe or, rather, the intended destination.
The fastest man in the world wants to break his own record at the half marathon of Copenhagen. Jacob Kiplimo set the fastest half marathon himself in 2021
The defiant collective soul of the Iranian women has transcended eras and borders to haunt Aarhus, Denmark where the city’s art museum, ARoS, is presently hosting an exhibition by Iranian artist Soheila Sokhanvari titled “Rebel Rebel.”

Last night, as I was getting ready to perform in a comedy show at Teater Play in Amager alongside the brilliant Conrad Molden, my four-year-old daughter looked up at me and asked, ‘Daddy, why are you ALWAYS going to do comedy?’
A new study on the gender gap in job loss on the Danish labour market has found that women find it harder to reenter the workplace, and suffer greater short term income reduction, while men lose more overall. Amongst parents with dependent children, mothers are hit harder than fathers, and low-education mothers fare the worst of all.
Gender equality progress in Denmark’s labour market has come to a standstill, with recent statistics by gender and diversity think tank, EQUALIS, revealing only marginal gains for women in the workforce, and largely in high-level positions.
