CPHFW - By Malene Birger

Hi guys, I am back to finish off my SS18 Copenhagen Fashion Week recap.    First up we have By Malene Birger, a label started by Malene Birger back in 2003.  Since inception, the label has gained international fame thanks to popular online stockist such as Net A Porter. 

Not to be taken in a negative way, but I was initially drawn to the accessories (particular those earrings).   I am a huge fan of geometric shaped accessories at the moment so those white circle earrings caught my eye rather quickly.  The structured handbags were also a big hit for me. Donned with beautiful snake prints and bright colors, I have to have one of these bags.  Now on to the clothes, inspired by the city of Sao Paolo. I immediately noticed the influences of the rainforest and city living.  I found the collection to be very commercial and easily digestible for the actual consumer.  The leather like, pleather trenchcoat and high waisted shorts were very strong pieces that I know will trickle down to the high street and possibly become key pieces next SS.

Copenhagen Fashion Week - Ganni

Back again with another highlight from Copenhagen Fashion Week.  Ganni is the "IT" brand stomping down the runways during CPH Fashion Week. 

Above is a few of my favorite runway looks.  How can you possibly deny yourself cozy knit jumpers, tiered ruffles, perfectly curated layering and bold floral prints.  I totally get why this was the most coveted show of the season.  But honestly guys, the 90s vibe wasn't a win with me.  I grew up during that time when JNCO jeans were popular, and I wasn't a fan then...def not a fan of these super wide leg jeans now.   True I haven't tried these babies on, I'm sure they are super comfy, so who knows, I may be donning a pair.

Copenhagen Fashion Week - Stine Goya

Hey guys!!!! In this post I wanted to share a bit of an obsession of mine.  Scandinavian countries, well mainly the scandi fashion.  I am freaking obsessed.  I've only been through Iceland a few times, but I really would love to visit Sweden and Denmark.  Of course there is loads of history there, buildings and landscape, but I would be there for fashion and people watching. 

Copenhagen fashion week kicks off the fashion calendar.  This past week many editors, buyers,  photographers and influencers took to CPH to take in all things fresh and culturally rich.  Today I am highlighting Stine Goya.  Although not the most popular brand I was instantly drawn to the maximalist aesthetic.  Optical overload.  The colors, stacked prints, florals, make up and hair, everything took more than a moment to process.  I loved it all. Here are a few of my favorite looks from the runway.
