Gucci Horsebit Fine Jewelry 19. Yılını Kutluyor

There are people who argue that fashion weeks have gotten too exclusive (remember the Row’s no-photo fiasco?), and then there are people who argue that they aren’t exclusive enough (see: influencers in the front row). But while I’m not quite sure where I stand on that debate, one thing I know for certain is that none of those people have been to Copenhagen Fashion Week.

Copenhagen Fashion Week has quietly become a favorite amongst fashion editors because it’s all about ease—and great clothes. With no major fashion houses based in the capital of Denmark, the week’s focus is on emerging designers. You don’t get stuck in traffic because you’re too busy cruising on a bike down streets lined in pastel-colored town houses. Of course there’s street style, but instead of peacocking, guests lean into the quirky, effortless Scandi girl aesthetic. Many presentations and shows offer wine as you wait, or greet you with a cardamom bun on a scalloped napkin at your seat. And while it’s already hard to feel jaded when you’re well-fed, it helps to know that every designer showing has met a set of sustainability requirements to help better the planet.
