Henrik Vibskov is known for his madcap imagination, and has created all manner of weird and wonderful sets for his shows, including human-sized hamster wheels. As a foil to his graphic, mostly black-and-white collection, he crafted a "living" runway this season, with dancers in all-over-print body and face stockings camouflaged amongst tent-like structures covered in the same fabric.

The up-and-coming designer duo behind label Saks Potts is getting a lot of buzz locally, and recently snagged model of the moment Caroline Brasch Nielsen as their poster child. With giant fuzzy Mongolian furs in primary colors, and color-block astrakhan coats, the collection was brimming with attention-grabbing outerwear.

Designer Anne Sofie Madsen attracts a cool fashion crowd when she shows in Paris, and the resort presentation she held on home turf was no different. Local hipster-about-town Esben Weile Kjær presided over the event held in a warehouse in the city s meatpacking district, and read poetry from his new book as models in deconstructed trench coats, billowing high-waisted denim pants, and mixed-media leather dresses sauntered around the space.

Asger Juel Larsen has a Woolmark regional prize under his belt, and is beginning to make a name for himself in his native Denmark. With athletic midriff-baring tops and daring short shorts, his androgynous take on streetwear speaks to the ambisexual vibe that s been reverberating in menswear on both sides of the pond.
