With its iconic amalgam of the Danish hygge and the opulence of high fashion, the bi-annual Copenhagen Fashion Week has left us awestruck (yet again)! Here are 5 of our favourite street style trends handpicked among the hundreds of stunning looks served over the past week in the city of fairytales.
Jelly Shoes Make A Comeback!
If you really thought that we would leave our beloved jelly shoes hanging in the ‘80s, you couldn’t have been more wrong! This can be singularly attested by the Y/Project x Melissa jelly mules. Having made not one or two, but numerous appearances over the course of last week, they truly were the star of the show. Eye-catching (not to mention the floral adornment) yet unbelievably versatile, these slip-ons can elevate any outfit.
50 Hues Of Blues
Forget all about Barbie pink because that’s behind us now! Instead, embrace your blues this fall. Whether it be a blazer in blue sage, dark wash denim from head to toe, baby blue ribbons, or just simply an oversized royal blue sweater. The choice is yours to make!
Drenched In A Trench Coat? Not A Problem
One would have thought that frigid air and rainy weather would send Copenhagen Fashion Week off to a rocky start. Not in the very least! With the help of a wide array of trench coats, not limited to the classic beige but even patterned ones in both brighter and darker hues, the capricious showers were effortlessly fought off. Wear one over any outfit to score perfectly on sophistication.
Silver For The Win
If you are one of the many who pride themselves on exclusively wearing gold accessories (myself included), I’m sorry, because now is the time to convert to silver. Metallic silver stilettos, sculpture bags, silver-sequined skirts, silver statement jewellery… You name it, they had it.
Yes, Kitten Heels With Socks.
This one most certainly won’t be a popular trend to start off with. In fact, it is bound to stir up some fashion controversy. Yet there is simply nothing that can be done to interfere with a canon event – it’s almost like the return of low-rise jeans in 2021 all over again! Kitten heels with socks are perfect for getting through the fall breezes as well as protecting your skin from blisters.
