Copenhagen Fashion Week is usually the first international city in the circuit to showcase collections each year, giving a hint of what’s to come for the season. Additionally, the Danish capital is known for its impeccable street style. No wonder why this season’s coverage by Acielle Tanbetova, aka Style Du Monde, has already gone viral on Twitter and TikTok with users sharing some of her Vogue Runway photos.
For this upcoming spring 2023 season, showgoers brought their A game and their best late-summer looks. From head-to-toe black to pacific ocean-blue and uber-saturated oranges, some folks are clearly looking for alternatives to Barbiecore pink and parakeet-green, all while their more toned-down counterparts experiment with neutrals-on-neutrals. Cargo pants are still the summer outfit closet MVP, as are funky knits and trippy florals. Elsewhere, Western accessories brought out everyone’s urban cowboy (yes, including Emma Chamberlain), and the Danish continue to make bicycles the it-item for summer street style.
Scroll through to see 10 street style trends from the spring 2023 Copenhagen shows you’ll want to make note of for those late summer fits.
Orange is the New Black
From baby strollers to cargo pants and bodycon knits, if there’s one thing to take away from Copenhagen Fashion Week is that orange is the color of the season.
Vanilla Latte-core
No one does neutral-on-neutral like the Danish–making that iced vanilla latte look better than ever.
Ride or Die
Paired with heels and skirts, or shorts and Birkenstocks, bicycles are Copenhagen’s must-have item.
Neo-Western
Maybe it’s last year’s The Power of the Dog (2021) effect or street stylers re-watched Urban Cowboy (1980), but this season, cowboy boots, fringe jackets, and western belt buckles are the star of the rodeo.
Blackout
For those who say black is not a color, these street stylers would beg to differ. Nothing like head-to-toe black to keep you looking cool, even in the summer heat.
Precious Cargo
Y2K ushered the rebirth of the cargo, and Copenhagen showgoers are here to prove that the trend is alive and well.
Knitty Gritty
Brushed mohair, rainbow crochet, bodycon ribbed-knits. These funky summer knits are all but winter-exclusive.
Blue’s Clues
Pacific ocean-blue has been slowly taking over the runways over the last couple of seasons, and it’s finally made its way into our closets. Parakeet-green who?
Well Suited
The suit and tie are not dead, just taking up new forms.
Flower Power
Trippy florals are the summer’s go-to print, according to these showgoers.
