Great Danes, good style and some smart ideas for getting dressed.

Smaller than Paris and Milan, Copenhagen Fashion Week has nonetheless established itself as one to watch over the years, particularly its street style.

It was there that the now-ubiquitous oversized blazer was popularised back in 2019, and it’s interesting to see it usurped by an hourglass-shaped tailoring this year.

There were Ganni girls galore of course, and (though I’ll keep it brief in the name of positivity) there was a lot of overstyling. Many showgoers wore the same looks — I counted at least three in the same coat — and it’s a lesson in restraint when it comes to PR seeding and dressing attendees.

But there was plenty of good fashion too, and the weather lends itself to versatility.

Here’s the who looked fresh, authentic and (coolest of all) themselves.
