CPFW Day 1:

REMAIN
A Birger Christensen brand which places focus on straight-forward fashion with an urban twist. REMAIN’s collection featured sleek, tailored pieces with hints of their signature leather finish.
SØEREN LE SCHMIDT
The SS22 collection is described as “incorporating the old school tailoring with pattern manipulation, where the rules of old school pattern making are broken”.
CPFW Day 2:
Brøgger
Danish designer Julie Brøgger loves feminine silhouettes, playing with the line of formal and day wear. This romantic collection demonstrated the brand’s flirty, playful approach to design.
