Copenhagen Fashion Week, is hosted by CFW and the Danish Fashion Institute and includes the main trade shows in CIFF, Gallery, Vision and Defining Scandinavia. The children’s trade show CIFF Kids, a part of CIFF (Copenhagen International Fashion Fair) is now one of the largest children’s fashion fairs in Europe with over 175 brands exhibiting under one roof.

Not only is Copenhagen attractive as a fashion and design capital, but a few of the shows are also located in stunning nostalgic surroundings, like VISION in the old train garage.

With multiple venues, getting around might seem like a daunting and stressful task. But in the past there has been a official press bus of Copenhagen Fashion Week, that shuttles from show to show ensuring a smooth and enjoyable stay in the Fashion Capital of the North. www.copenhagenfashionweek.com
