Danish fashion designers are worried they may be losing one of their primary markets due to Brexit.

Despite a growing market for Danish clothing exports in the British market, the Brexit referendum and the decline of the British pound has created an uncertain future for Danish exporters.

“There is clearly a great deal of uncertainty,” Mogens Jepsen, the managing director of Molo Kids, told DR Nyheder. “Will there be restrictions? How does this affect prices, and so on.”
