DANSK did Amstrup

Last week, your faithful Danish UK-based DANSK reporters travelled across the mini-pond to witness the opening of this season’s Copenhagen Fashion Week along with a delectable handful of London’s usual suspects.  This blog entry was of course set to be published last week, but due to Thursday’s tragic news of Lee McQueen’s death, we saw it only appropriate to let our statement regarding his passing stand undisturbed on the blog for some time.

Wednesday night saw the fabulous Louise Amstrup – who actually did a stint at McQueen before launching her own label – show her darkly delicious autumn/winter 2010 collection. Louise P opened the show, which was styled by Contributing Fashion Editor at DANSK, Anders Soelvsten Thomsen. Front row were Tiffany Hsu, Yasmina Dexter, Dean Mayo Davies, Pandora Lennard, yours truly and, of course,  a ravishing looking Mrs. Boss. He always looks so fresh that one. (Mr. Boss was producing and watched from afar.)

As always, Miss Amstrup delivered a concise and ooh-I-want-that-one-and-that-one-and-that-one collection. Sexy, sporty and with the faintest whiff of gloom, Louise kicked off CFW rather perfectly. Aaaand for those of you who – like us – can’t get enough, do pick up a copy of the new DANSK for more Amstrup (and more Soelvsten Thomsen, for that matter).
