Copenhagen Fashion Week

Copenhagen Fashion Week

Copenhagen Fashion Week is held twice a year in Copenhagen. Copenhagen Fashion Week consists of a market week with 3 big fairs at the locations Bella Center, Oeksnehallen and Forum, and a diverse range of fashion shows at City Hall and a myriad of different locations, as well as showrooms and events all over town.

Copenhagen Fashion Week also offers a programme open to all, for consumers, citizens and tourists. This open part of the week, Copenhagen Fashion Festival, is developed in collaboration between Wonderful Copenhagen, Copenhagen City Centre and Copenhagen Fashion Week.

The first actual fashion week was held in 2006, then organised by Danish Fashion Institute. Prior to that, fashion fairs have been held since 1981. Today, the event takes place in February and August, and is the Nordic region's largest fashion event with more than 1,600 exhibitors and 2,800 branded collections.[1], in addition to 35-40 runway shows on the official show schedule.

Copenhagen Fashion Week is organised by the company Copenhagen Fashion Week and Danish Fashion Institute, which aims to promote Danish fashion in international markets. Among the fashion houses that stand out in Copenhagen Fashion Week are Ivan Grundahl, Bruuns Bazaar, By Malene Birger, Munthe plus Simonsen, Rützou, Baum und Pferdgarten and Day Birger et Mikkelsen.
