*Takes notes*

Copenhagen street style is elite. From unexpected colour pairings to edgy outerwear, the sidewalks of Denmark’s capital teem with Scandinavian style inspiration, no matter the weather. In fact, when conditions appear particularly gloomy or wet, these chic Danes tend to go even harder with their looks, opting for playful headwear and dopamine-inducing colour to counter the winter doldrums. That’s perhaps the biggest lesson from the most stylish Scandinavians: Bad weather doesn’t have to mean bad (or boring) outfit. You may need a puffer, but it can be aqua blue and worn with a rainbow knit hood.

The undisputed coolest week on the fashion month calendar is underway right now and the outfits so far are giving. On day one of the Copenhagen Fall 2023 ready-to-wear shows, we spotted trends like oversized leather outerwear and shades of green on the street style stars. Balaclavas are back once again, as is exaggerated layering.

Here, we round up the best looks from Copenhagen Fall 2023 fashion week.
