We’re well into the fashion months early in the year, with the men’s catwalks of Paris and Milan slowly fading into the distance. Before things ramp up again with women's collections in New York, London, Paris and Milan, two other fashion weeks will be going ahead: Stockholm and Copenhagen. While often overlooked, these two Scandinavian cities pack a punch and are set to exhibit some exciting and dynamic collections from emerging and established designers.
COPENHAGEN
First up is Copenhagen, kicking off on the 1st Feb. As the leading Nordic fashion week, Copenhagen is host to an array of fashion talent. Separating CFW from the rest is sustainability: “Sustainability is the core focus area for Copenhagen Fashion Week. Copenhagen Fashion Week strives towards making substantial changes to the way the event is executed, and works to inspire and encourage the industry to take steps towards becoming more sustainable”.
