Over the past week, my Instagram feed has been filled with cardamom buns, cobbled streets and elegant dressers whizzing around on bicycles. This means only one thing: Copenhagen Fashion Week has been happening.
Somewhat of a younger sister to the “big four” fashion weeks, Copenhagen has a notably more relaxed pace, but its influence is shouldn’t be underestimated. Each season, Scandinavia’s most in-demand labels gather in the Danish capital, from established names like Baum und Pferdgarten, Cecilie Bahnsen and Rotate to growing brands with burgeoning cult followings such as The Garment and Birrot. Together, they deliver a line-up defined by energising colour, wearable cuts and a playful sensibility that feels inherently Scandi.
Off the runway, the city becomes a walking Pinterest board, with sheer lace skirts, flashes of tomato red and playful accessorising dominating the street, while on the runway, all eyes have been on what brands are dreaming up for spring/summer 2026, which has so far delivered the kind of fresh, wearable designs I can hardly wait a year for. Thankfully, I really don’t have to either, as they all feel very relevant and aligned with the current fashion climate.
While there were some overarching themes seen across several of the collections—such as the quietly audacious palette of blues, plums and pinks—there were some more subtle trends woven through several collections that are destined to leave a mark from now all the way to next summer. From artful layering to woven wonders, here are the Copenhagen Fashion Week spring/summer 2026 runway trends that caught my eye.
