I’m Obsessed With Scandi Style—These 7 Chic Trends Are Taking Off in Copenhagen

I'm Obsessed With Scandi Style—These 7 Chic Trends Are Taking Off in Copenhagen

Although it isn’t one of the big four fashion weeks, Copenhagen is certainly one of my favourites. A little more low-key than the events that follow in September, Copenhagen’s energy has always been more relaxed, more playful and honestly? So much more wearable.

With brands including Sinéad O’Dwyer, Rotate and OpéraSport showcasing their latest collections on the runways, inspiration and energy buzzed through the city this week. Although the autumn season really kicks in a little later, Copehagen provides the pre-cursor, giving hints as to what is going to hit the big time in a month or so.

Copenhagen’s runway shows always attract a supremely stylish crowd thanks to the many cult contemporary brands the city has cultivated over the years. And what’s exiting about the aesthetic is that they do both minimalism and maximalism with equal ease, so no matter where your personal style sits on the spectrum, you’ll find inspiration wherever you look. Street style photos have been streaming in all week and I’ve spent hours combing through them in fascination. To discover the looks, details and items I spotted over and over again, read on to discover the 7 street style trends that were all over Copenhagen Fashion Week.

1. LEOPARD LOVE

Style Notes: Leopard print has been coming through on the runways for a few seasons now and the trend is continuing to bubble up for autumn. This season the style set is layering it into their looks in a low-key way—mixing it with other prints and styling it with bold shades as a pretty addition to their outfits—rather than the main event.

2. STRONG SHOULDERS

Style Notes: Favouring a strong silhouette, the Danish style crowd opted for a dramatic form, selecting shoulder padded blazers to complete their looks. Some styled their blazers with matching trousers, whilst others layered them over silky dresses. Every single one of them looked chic.

3. HEAD-TO-TOE BURGUNDY

Style Notes: Burgundy is set to be one of autumn’s biggest colour trends and the style set are experimenting with the tone early this year. Rather than mixing it into their looks in more subtle ways, this week Copenhagen’s most stylish embraced the crimson shade in all of its glory—styling head-to-toe ruby looks.

4. MESH MOMENT

Style Notes: See through, transparent, and semi-sheer style was all over the cities streets this week. Layered over underwear or worn on top of simple slips, the mesh clothing trend is a new-season favourite that I can’t ignore.

Style Notes: Whilst I’m used to seeing this trend on sandy beaches during the summer, Copenhagen’s style set are giving the trend a city-worthy look right now. From pretty dresses to elegant tops, this warm-weather trend is set to continue well into the autumn months this year.
