Why is Copenhagen Fashion Week a Runway Role Model?
Over the last few years CPHFW has firmly cemented itself as a frontrunner for the fifth spot, amongst the ‘Big Four’ fashion weeks, not least because it is flipping the script on the conventional approach.
The Danish capital is distinguished for both the covetable Scandi style it showcases as well as its rigorous sustainability strategy: CPHFW AW23 was the first fashion week to implement sustainability requirements for brands wishing to participate.
This industry relies on case studies to showcase that responsible fashion is achievable without compromising on creativity.

Bales of second-hand clothing exported from the Global North to the Global South present a major problem.
