Fashion editors, photographers, content creators and industry experts all flocked to the Danish city to see the spring/summer 2025 shows. 


The fourth and final day of Copenhagen Fashion Week has arrived, ending our sneak peek into next summer’s trends, colour palettes and styling tips – many of which we’ve noted down as inspiration for our own wardrobes. And alongside the scheduled shows and events, those in attendance also boast chic outfits that combine personal style with the trends of the moment.

As these street style looks snowball in popularity, we kept a keen eye on the fashion editors, photographers, content creators and industry experts in attendance to see what items they were wearing, and a handful of pieces stood out.

In typical Scandi style, comfort came first for many of those who sat at the shows – ballet flats, midi skirts and plenty of double denim. Plus, the sheer styling trend that we saw take centre stage across the February runways has trickled down with shirts, skirts and dresses spotted in a range of transparent fabrics. Perhaps unsurprisingly, given the warmer weather, one item caught our eye: micro-mini short shorts.

Styled in a variety of ways, whether as a colour-blocked co-ord with a striking shirt or a simple striped polo and trainers, the high hemline bottoms acted as a base for plenty of looks. Plus, no two short shorts were the same: some opted for luxurious-looking leather while others went with casual cotton styles and sports-like shapes, carrying on the ever-popular athleisure-like look.

There appears to be only one requirement when looking to recreate the popular style: the shorter, the better. Below, we’ve listed a handful of our favourite options to start experimenting with.
