Malene Birger

Highly acclaimed Malene Birger is a successful designer in Scandinavia, proved by the vast crowd who gathered for her SS 2011 collection located in the remote shipping warehouse outside of Copenhagen. Danish celebrities lined the front row for the show, which had an overall aesthetic of urban safari comprised of warm earth tones and soft pastels, shapely trench coats, suits, and maxi dresses. Cinched waists underscore a strong female silhouette this season, much to the pleasure of us bestowed with hourglass curves. Still, topped off with a scarf wrapped beneath a bowler hat, the feminine shapes are given a suitable contrast, lacing estrogen and testosterone together to produce an alluring balance.


Rutzou

Radiating tribal romance infused with touches of elegant Egyptian, Rutzou presented her soft feminine collection at Copenhagen’s city hall to a feast of VIP guests. Revamped jodhpurs are made sophisticated with a sheer silk vest, followed by fluid jumpsuits and playful frippery. The soft yet edgy looks are juxtaposed with overlaying corsets and thick waist-belts on silk pastel dresses, pairing comfort with sophistication. The slouched silhouette reminiscent of the early mid-20th century are updated with long-ended gold chokers and yellow, black and white staned garments and light shades of purple and tan on floor-length gowns. According this collection, the key to spring is comfort, elegance with accents inspired by mother earth.


Munthe plus Simonsen

Optimistically set on the charming cobblestone street, Grønnegade, French-braided models smiled as they paraded down the interim grass strip in the rain. Playful, light, and fun best describes the collection, alluding to an tribal-indian inspiration with feather earrings and floral brocades. Thanks to a faithful audience and stoic bundle of models, the show was a success in spite of the dreary Danish weather.

Copenhagen Fashion Week Part I: Minimarket, Henrik Vibskov & Wood Wood

by fashionpulse

Minimarket

Inspired by voodoo and superstition, Minimarket presented an eclectic collection comprised of strong cuts playing tribute to the female shape. Elaborate hair ornaments made of straw, leaves, wood and feathers underscored the allusion to dark arts. Comprised of semi-geometric patterns and solids, the looks adhere to different shades of a trio: apricot, aqua and blue, accented by either cayenne or black. Accessorized with John Lennon sunglasses and two meter long necklaces, the three Swedish designers behind the brand managed to produce my favorite collection of the week.

Henrik Vibskov

Held at the eerie pedestrian bridge in a very dark Copenhagen park, the last show of the evening was worth the wait. Adorned with a thick black fabric wrapped from crown to chin paired with opaque goggles, models plodded down the make-shift wooden planks in simple-yet-dynamic garments. Maintaining his eccentric reputation, Vibskov sent a wooden sailboat down the opposite end of the runway, creating an unfortunate distraction to the otherwise strong collection.

Wood Wood

Soaked in H2O and rocking tangled knots with the odd fabric weaved braid, models sauntered the through the numerous rooms hosting this season’s show with a jaded attitude to match the utility-inspired garments.  Kiss-printed dress shirts and graphic A-line skirts and shorts ran throughout this light-hearted collection, while the backpack adorned many backsides, proving the practical accessory is here to stay.
