Stine Goya SS24 (James Cochrane)
If Copenhagen Fashion Week day 3 has taught us anything it's that maximalism, bold patterns and colourful outfits are here to stay!
On Wednesday 10th, nine highly talented designers presented their collections under a grey skies, in continuity with the past few days. But if there is something that this week has taught us, it's that the show must go on. Thanks to the likes of Marimekko, Paolina Russo and Henrik Vibskov, the perfect pieces have been secured for a sunny - well maybe next year - summer.
Stine Goya hosted a street party with an ode to summer for their SS24 show, the first model strode down the quaint and homely runway, dressed in a bright pink ensemble made up of a mid-length split skirt with a very large side pocket, and a layered sheered long-sleeve top. As the rest of the models succeeded down the little paved street, the collection unveiled a joyful take on Scandinavian fashion. Playing around minimalist inspirations thanks to refined silhouettes, the designer, who created her eponymous label in 2006, presented a set of oversized shirts, well-fitted sleeveless dresses, matching sets with bold multicoloured prints, in an overall elegant yet playful collection.

Henrik Vibskov's SS24 show offered a more genderless approach. Inspired “by the idea of the box as a vessel that inhabits and protects precious items for a limited amount of time as it floats through endless lines of moving boxes”, the designer presented reversible clothing, bubble-wrapped inspired patterns, “out for delivery” printed garments, and corseted shaped skirts directly inspired by folded cardboard boxes. Through this conceptual approach to time and preciousness, Vibskov delivered an elegant collection filled with layered garments, colourful patterns and unique prints.
When talking patterns and colourful garments, Finnish designer Marimekko is without a doubt the winner of the day - if not the week. The models, , were dressed in bold floral patterns, walking in between giant cartoonlike flowers. The show, set in the Design Museum Denmark was an intersection of art, fashion, design and culture. Drawing inspiration from Scandinavian fashion’s roots by exploring utilitarian fashion with a bolder approach, the collection was filled with oversized dresses, flowy ensembles and variations of opposing hues.

Copenhagen based brand, Wood Wood, beautifully demonstrated that office wear could also be bright and playful. Thanks to the use of flashy - cone like - orange, the brand delivered an utilitarian-inspired collection while playing around with bolder colours and unique shapes. Opening with a bare chested model covering her upper body with a washed out leather jacket, whilst wearing denim black and light brown washed-out denims, the collection was a visually striking contemporary take on utilitarian fashion.
Day 3 of CPFW confirms the capital’s integral part of the fashion industry thanks to talents not frightened to share a unique and innovative take on conventional Scandinavian fashion.
