Suits
Suits will dominate next season, far beyond the confines of the traditional office look. Take a cue from Benedikte Thoustrup, girlfriend of Count Nikolai of Monpezat, who donned a chic, feminine take on the classic suit. Expect to see Bermuda-short suits paired with heels or ballerinas, adding a fresh twist to this timeless ensemble.
Polo Shirts
Imagine mixing the spirit of the Olympics with the SS24 Miu Miu collection, and voilà—you have the polo shirt, the must-have item in your wardrobe. Remember, if your top is sporty, balance it out with contrasting textures below. Think crochet, sequins, and organza skirts for a playful juxtaposition.
Striped Shirts
The striped boyfriend shirt is a versatile piece that transitions seamlessly from summer to early fall. In Copenhagen, stylish women paired this effortless staple with mini skirts, jeans, and as part of creative layering ensembles.
Dress Over Pants
The dress-over-pants trend has gained popularity among Danish fashionistas for its quirky yet comfortable appeal. Try layering your summer minis over jeans and a t-shirt for a fresh, age-defying style that works for everyone.
Fringe
We’ve already discussed the cowboy trend brought to life by Pharrell Williams for Louis Vuitton menswear AW24. The street style at CPHFW SS25 only confirmed its staying power. Fringe, cowboy boots, hats, and big-buckled belts are the perfect additions to your pre-fall 2024 wardrobe.
Biker Boots
Biker boots made a strong comeback last winter, and they’re here to stay. As seen on the streets of Copenhagen, pair yours with a skirt or Bermuda shorts and bare legs for an effortlessly cool look.
Ladylike with a Twist
One of the standout combinations at CPHFW this season was the ladylike skirt paired with a rock-and-roll t-shirt. Finish the look with sling-back heels, and you’re set to rock fall 2024 in style!
