Copenhagen Fashion Week Just Announced Its Spring 2026 Lineup—Here's What to Look Out For
Not only has Copenhagen Fashion Week always been a champion of vibrant street style, but it has also consistently dedicated its platform to sustainability and independent design. If you haven't tuned in before, you still might be familiar with some of the city's cult-favorites-turned-powerhouses, including Ganni, Rotate, Marimekko, Filippa K, and more. Now from August 4-8, CPHFW will welcome 45 participating designers and brands for the week's annual kick-off to fashion month. 'Despite the headwinds facing our industry, it's both meaningful and encouraging to see growing participation and support—a clear reminder of how vital a platform like this becomes in challenging times,' Cecilie Thorsmark, CEO of CPHFW, said in a statement. 'I look forward to seeing the season unfold and to presenting the most relevant voices in the Nordic creative industry to our global community coming together to support, spotlight, and celebrate.' Cecilie Bahnsen will return from the Parisian fashion circuit as the city's inaugural guest designer. As a Copenhagen native who founded the eponymous label in her hometown after graduating from the Royal College of Art in London, the runway will commemorate the beloved designer's 10-year anniversary. Moving forward, the guest slot will serve as a key tool for shining a light on outstanding Nordic independent talent. In addition to the guest slot, the CPHFW 'Newtalent' scheme, which provides monetary support for up to three consecutive runway seasons, will welcome Anne Sofie Madsen alongside returning designers Berner Kühl and Bonnetje. The support for young talent does not stop there. The Zalando Visionary Award is back for its third year, granting €50,000 to a visionary designer that advocates for meaningful and sustainable change within the industry. The past winners include IAMISIGO and Sinéad O'Dwyer, who is known for her size-inclusive runways. CPHFW has also updated the environmental standards each participating brand must follow, and all those on the spring 2026 lineup will be implementing the revised sustainability requirements. Said framework will officially go into effect in 2026.

Copenhagen Fashion Week links with V&A's Fashion in Motion showcase
Copenhagen Fashion Week's (CPHFW) influence continues to reach far and wide even though it's not one of the 'big four' fashion weeks, and that influence means it also continues to forge partnerships beyond Denmark's borders. The latest is with London's Victoria and Albert Museum. CPHFW and the V&A are collaborating for the V&A Fashion in Motion's May 2025 edition. The showcase will present five key emerging designers from Denmark 'celebrating the creativity, expressiveness and innovation that Copenhagen Fashion Week has come to pioneer'. 'As part of a concerted focus on strengthening its relationship with the UK creative and cultural industry,' CPHFW will on 30 May hold three showings at the V&A within the Raphael Court featuring the collections of five designers. Four of them are part of the CPHFW NEWTALENT programme, including Alectra Rothschild/Masculina, Berner Kühl, Bonnetje and Stamm. The other is the 2024 recipient of the Wessel & Vett Fashion Prize, Stem. The V&A's Fashion in Motion series has a high international profile and has platformed key British and international designers to the public since 1999. The five designers will present 'six key looks that embody their vision and encompass their dedication to creative craft and expression'. CPHFW's CEO Cecilie Thorsmark highlighted the fact that the V&A is 'a cultural bedrock of the British creative industry, so being able to showcase rising talent from Denmark through the seminal activation of V&A Fashion In Motion is an exceptional opportunity. I hope we can paint a strong visual of the vast talent our small nation is cultivating, and build stronger bridges between our burgeoning creative industries.' And Oriole Cullen, V&A senior curator, Fashion and Textiles added: 'Fashion in Motion gives us the opportunity to work with incredible practitioners from around the world.' Meanwhile, CPHFW has announced the members of its Show & Presentation Committee for SS26 and they too underline its international reach. As well as local luminaries such as Allyson Shiffman, features editor of Vogue Scandinavia and Christian Hansen, creative director of Costume Denmark, it features a number of key international names. They include Bruce Pask, senior editorial director at Neiman Marcus; Emily Chan, senior sustainability editor, British Vogue; Ida Petersson, founder of Good Eggs; Maud Pupato, buying director of Printemps; Sara Sozzani Maino, creative director of Fondazione Sozzani; and Tiffany Hsu, chief buying officer at Mytheresa, among others.
