Street Style Trend Watch: Copenhagen Fashion Week

We’ve come to expect a certain standard when it comes to Copenhagen Fashion Week street style, and this season for SS26, the fashion set did not disappoint.

Copenhagen is often in a league of its own when it comes to street style. It’s adventurous and often involves unique takes on trends and styling techniques that set it apart from other fashion cities. So, as we kick off with another CPHFW season, it’s not just the runways that are providing the inspo. Here is a run-down of what’s trending on the streets:

Polka Dots

One of the biggest trends of 2025 is polka dots, so of course, the trend-savvy show goers of Copenhagen Fashion Week will have fully embraced the print. The spotted design was seen on several street style looks in the first few days of CPHFW alone. On shirts, skirts, dresses, coats, and tops. Hopefully, this is confirmation that my current obsession with polka dots isn’t going anywhere.

Stripes

Stripes might not be groundbreaking, but leave it to Copenhagen street style stars to make them feel brand new. Whether vertical, horizontal, or diagonally sliced, stripes were everywhere. In true CPHFW style, they mainly came in bright and bold hues, and often were styled with other prints.

Graphic tees

I love a graphic tee. It’s the perfect way to look effortless while simultaneously making a statement. And the fashion folk of Copenhagen clearly agree.

White trousers

As always, relaxed Scandi style is big this CPHFW – and we love to see it. In particular, low-rise white trousers seem to be popular with street style. Often paired with black or a bold print for contrast, these clean-cut bottoms bring a fresh, slightly sporty feel to even the most tailored look.

Colour blocking

We’re deep into a maximalist dressing era. Need evidence? The street style looks at Copenhagen Fashion Week, where colour-blocking has been thoroughly embraced. The key is, if you think two colours shouldn’t go together, they probably do.
