Coming up...CPH Fashion Week!

This week is Copenhagen Fashion Week and the city turns into a big marketplace full of inspiration, street and fairs, brings a good view on what wave hit us next...

I will have a closer look on some of my favorite designers..Swedish Carin Wester.

Carin Wester graduated 1998, from Beckman's School of Design and started short thereafter to work as a designer for the brand Paul & Friends. During eight seasons, she designed the women's line, until that she started her own brand Carin Wester, 2003.

Since the launching of the brand, Carin has been nominated for Nöjesguidens fashion award (2004) and achieved the prize as newcomer of the year by Elle (2004) for her design. Carin was also nominated as the Designer of the year by Elle (2005) and as Entrepreneur of the year 2008 by Ernst & Young . In August 2009, she won the prestigious prize "Guldknappen" from the Swedish magazine Damernas Värld.

Spring/Summer 2013 collection dedicated to the independent, modern woman who stays in the city during the summer. Inspired by the characters of the 1980s movie ›Working Girl‹, the strict »office suit« changes to a more casual outfit for a late evening on a terrace or a long weekend by the lake. The perfect man she is looking for distances himself from the classic suit, revealing contemporary elegance with a relaxed attitude...

  

Looking forward to Fall/Winter 2013...
