Whilst the voluminously structured, full-skirted babydoll dresses have a whisper of drama to them, they also, with uber-grace, play around with shapes, silhouettes and proportions.
The rise of the ‘Copenhagen Girl’ as a vista of international chic, has undoubtedly had a ripple effect – the undeniable draw of Copenhagen Fashion Week. Top on the list of designers that we couldn’t help but drool over this season at Copenhagen Fashion Week was Cecilie Bahnsen. Bahnsen’s ready-to-wear spring/summer 2018 collection has influences of quintessential feminine style. The collection draws upon the idea of a feminine, modern ‘uniform’, and the designer channels an almost archetypal femininity, featuring ruffles, tulle and babydoll dresses.

The label sticks to its minimalistic, monochrome colour aesthetic, but what we love, is Bahnsen’s use of colour in her third season. The pastel pink and baby-blue, give the collection a refreshing flush of colour and add to its softness.

Some of our favourites from the collection include; the high-waisted sailor shorts, paired with the more extravagant puffed sleeve top, and the crisp white frock, that is soft and striking all at once.
