MEGA Runway Report: All the Trends From Copenhagen Fashion Week
Curate your Spring/Summer wardrobe with MEGA’s favorite trends spotted at Copenhagen Fashion Week
While New York and Paris have long reigned as the epicenters of fashion, a new city is emerging into the global spotlight—Copenhagen. Often dubbed the “fifth fashion week,” the Danish capital is rapidly gaining recognition for its commitment to conscious fashion and its pivotal role in setting the trends of tomorrow with a casual polished style.
The recent Copenhagen Fashion Week (CPHFW) made waves not only within traditional fashion circles, but also across digital platforms. With an impressive lineup of 28 shows, 12 presentations, and 84 events, CPHFW showcased the city’s influence on the global fashion landscape.
This season, the minimalist Scandi style, a hallmark of the Scandinavian aesthetic, has captured the imagination of fashion enthusiasts worldwide. Brands like Ganni and influencers like Matilda Djerf are leading the charge, making this trend a staple on TikTok’s ‘For You’ pages.

Digital media’s reach is undeniably shaping the future of fashion, embedding a new sartorial narrative into our daily lives. As these trends ripple across the globe, we’re already seeing some video inspirations of the Scandinavian aesthetic in the Philippines as an example, with many more expected to follow in the coming months.
Here’s a list of trends from CPHFW that one can take to the streets of Manila:
Currently Popular:
1. Refined Minimalism
Achieve the quintessential Scandi aesthetic with refined minimalism—think clean lines and effortless sophistication. It’s the uniform of the Scandi It-girls, who know that true style is all about quiet confidence.
2. Shades of Gray
In recent months, Gray has been rewriting the story of the classic basic black and white office wear. From charcoal to slate, these tones are set to redefine a more modern and sophisticated work wardrobe.
3. Leather Love
This one is pushing the boundaries, especially in the face of soaring temperatures. Whether it’s all black, earthy browns, or steely grays, leather pieces are here to make a bold statement.
4. Denim on Denim
Now’s the time to reimagine the early 2000s denim-on-denim look with a refreshed treatment of modern washes. This trend is ready for a new era, from the iconic Canadian tuxedo to chic, dressed-up denim looks—indeed, fashion with utilitarian function.
5. Rugby Play
Rugby shirts are essential to the new prep aesthetic. Whether long or short-sleeved, in bold colors or subtle neutrals, these pieces are vital for anyone embracing the resurgence of classic preppy style.
On The Rise:
1. Capri Season
Take a style cue from Carrie Bradshaw and slip into capri pants this season. Perfect for Manila’s heat, these versatile pants pair effortlessly with kitten heels or flip-flops, bringing a fresh, chic vibe to the streets.
2. Sheer Sensuality
The sheer trend is here, taking cues from Filipino fabrics used in making Barongs. Light and breathable, they’re ideal for staying chic in the warm weather while playing with shapes and layers.
3. Bubble Mania
Embrace the playful volume of bubble skirts, a trend rooted in the 80s and revived in the 2010s. These skirts add a touch of femininity and drama to your wardrobe, making them a standout piece for any occasion.
4. Sweater Weather
For a stylish layering twist, tie a sweater around your waist. This nonchalant look adds depth to your outfit, creating a belt-like effect that’s both practical and effortlessly cool.
5. Double Trouble
Embrace the boho-chic trend of tube dresses over tops, perfect for catching some sun in style. This look pairs the flowy elegance of a tube dress with the casual coolness of pants, offering a fresh, summer-ready silhouette.
