Highlights from Copenhagen Fashion Week SS24

Show­cas­ing a range of estab­lished brands as well as new, up-and-com­ing names, Copen­hagen has once again brought the world to its atten­tion through exhibit­ing the work of its local design­ers. It’s also tak­en a strong and much-admired eth­i­cal approach, with an enforced sus­tain­abil­i­ty cri­te­ri­on for all those par­tic­i­pat­ing. The result has of course led to an abun­dance of much desired Scan­di-style and gor­geous­ly craft­ed pieces to make for a mem­o­rable season.

Here we bring you an overview of OVERDUE’s most notable col­lec­tions dis­played last week on the run­ways of Copenhagen:

Stine Goya

Titled ‘Home­com­ing’, Stine Goya revis­it­ed the designs of her ear­li­er years, cre­at­ing a col­lec­tion that tru­ly high­lights the tone of the brand. By com­bin­ing tai­lored sil­hou­ettes with small­er details such as pearl embell­ish­ments and colour­ful prints, the col­lec­tion feels play­ful yet timeless.

Saks Potts

Show­cased next to the kinder­garten on the streets of Copen­hagen where the founders orig­i­nal­ly met 25 years pri­or, Saks Potts’ SS24 col­lec­tion was per­haps one of their most per­son­al yet. With a play­ful, sum­mery dynam­ic filled with both 90s and 00s ref­er­ences, the col­lec­tion felt effort­less­ly cool and will be added straight to our sum­mer mood boards. 

A Roege Hove

Esteemed knitwear brand A Roege Hove show­cased a sim­plis­tic yet ele­gant col­lec­tion, as flut­ed, sheer and cut-out knit­ted gar­ments saw their way down the run­way. Swoop­ing neck­lines and body­con sil­hou­ettes result in the cloth­ing appear­ing like a work of art. A tru­ly unique take on knitwear.

REMAIN

Pre­sent­ed in a reflec­tive room filled with mir­rors, REMAIN’s SS24 col­lec­tion felt dynam­ic and excit­ing. With strik­ing, bold shapes, over­sized sheer t‑shirts and back­ward jack­ets, the col­lec­tion was not play­ing by any rules in fash­ion, but mak­ing its own.

Lovechild 1979

Tac­tile Lay­er­ing and chunky gold acces­sories over a neu­tral colour palette accu­rate­ly sum­marise Lovechild 1979’s SS24 col­lec­tion. Inspired by the still life pho­tog­ra­phy tak­en by the icon­ic pho­tog­ra­ph­er Irv­ing Penn, cre­ative direc­tor Mia Kap­pel­gaard has encap­su­lat­ed the care­ful inten­tion of place­ment and min­i­mal­ism that Penn does so well.

ROTATE

With Vivi­enne West­wood and the Parisian Hotel Costes both serv­ing as inspi­ra­tion, the ROTATE SS24 col­lec­tion has result­ed in a clever com­bi­na­tion of punk and ultra-fem­i­nine. Pas­tel lace jump­suits, bal­a­clavas and nip­ple tas­sels are in abun­dance, and we want them all.

Mark Kenly Domino Tan

Sheer buck­et hats, neck­er­chiefs, pearl ear­rings and silk veils care­ful­ly com­pli­ment the min­i­mal­ist tai­lor­ing seen in MKDT Studio’s SS24 col­lec­tion. When cre­at­ing this col­lec­tion, cre­ative direc­tor Car­o­line Engel­gaar was most inspired by the sea, mak­ing it known through the use of floaty sil­hou­ettes and over­sized sailor collars.
