Copenhagen Fashion Week SS27
Copenhagen Fashion Week has just celebrated its 20th anniversary. From a regional showcase event within the Nordics to a global platform with a purpose and championing sustainability, the event is a lot more than the Scandi street styles. What has grown in the past 20 years is not just the structure and scale of the fashion week, it’s also the global presence and influence of Scandinavian fashion trends, innovative use of materials and upcycling production, and a conversation around important topics such as the relevance of media, climate change, the rise of modest fashion, etc. Words: Ophelia Wu.

The Revival And New Era of Thierry Mugler
Many, especially today’s generation, know Thierry Mugler through his iconic perfume, “Angel”. But to many others, they may remember the iconic looks worn by David Bowie, Beyoncé’s “I Am” world tour, Lady Gaga in her music video “Telephone” and, most recently, Kim Kardashian. For a long time, Mugler wasn’t the go-to brand for many, but in recent years it has made a spectacular comeback. Despite Manfred Thierry Mugler’s death in 2022, his brand and legacy live on through first Casey Cadwallader and now Castro Freitas. Cover Photo: model is wearing the taupe cropped tailored strap top.
