Copenhagen Fashion Week SS19 is from 7th – 9th August, and as always it will be packed with runway shows and events to celebrate the best in the Danish fashion industry. But what if you’re not in the fashion industry, but you still love fashion? There’s still plenty to do, including parties, runway shows, a panel discission, and more.
Here are the best open and free Copenhagen Fashion Week events for spring/summer 2019:
Lupe Presentation at Manon Les Suites
Italian luxury brand Lupe will be showing their SS19 collection at the cool Manon Les Suites hotel – it has a pretty epic pool – and it’s open to all! Check out some seriously glamorous dresses and enjoy the chic ambience.

Anno Anno Plus Size Fashion Show
While we think there should be way, way more body diversity on the Copenhagen runways, we’re thrilled to see that there will be at least one show celebrating larger bodies. Anno Anno will be hosting an open-to-the-public runway show that brings together a number of plus size brands. To get on the list, simply email Conni at [email protected].

For 140 DKK, you can attend a panel discussion with Editor-in-Chief of ELLE DK Cecilie Ingdal Christensen, fashion photographer Casper Sejersen, fashion blogger Sidsel Alling, and former model/fashion writer Lottie Freddie. This panel will explore the how social media has affected fashion trends, and how it may continue to do so in the future. The panel is moderated by lecturer Maria McKinney-Valentin. The ticket includes brunch and entrance to the art and fashion photography-blending exhibition “Vogue like a Painting” at Kunstforengen GL Strand.
