Scandinavian It Girls Are Reigning Supreme at Copenhagen Fashion Week

Scandinavia, in case you hadn’t heard, is having a moment: Denmark, Norway, and Sweden’s own fashion weeks are making more waves than ever before the usual New York, Milan, London, and Paris shows, and Scandinavian It girls are quickly gaining a following. The reason why was clearer than ever this Copenhagen Fashion Week, whose fall 2018 shows kicked off on Wednesday, causing the city’s local peacocks to join the visiting ones in flocking to the streets. As for the result? A clash of color, from neon orange Issey Miyake purses and shearling coats to bright blue Balenciaga sock-heels. (Indeed, the pairings in colors like kelly green on the first day of shows alone made it clear that you might as well start referring to boldly hued two-piece ensembles as Scandinavian tuxedos.) With at least a month of cold weather dressing left, take a lesson in how to do it in style with the best looks from the Scandinavian streets, here.
