Hot dawg

(Insert any joke about a big, juicy sausage here.)
Our very own Fashion Editor-at-Large, Anders Sølvsten Thomsen, is in Copenhagen this week to drink Cocio and attend shows, and I did a little interview with him for Friday’s edition of DANSK Daily, which you can read HERE.
It involves slippers and Anna Wintour (in the same sentence) and, um, a gassy model. (Did I really just write that on our ever-so-chic fashion blog? Yes, I think I did.)

Attention all chicer Copenhagen Fashion Week goers: to celebrate the launch of the DANSK autumn/winter 2010 issue, we’re throwing one of our little rather legendary shindigs tonight at Custom House in Copenhagen. Reception at 9 PM by invitation only – and the doors open at midnight for anyone who wants to see how it’s done, DANSK style. See you there.
And no announcement without a DANSK a/w 2010 preview to accompany it – above, Clinton by Joachim Mueller-Ruchholtz.

I’m looking for a good time!
Tonight’s male harem, from left to right: Rune, Anders, Chris, Michael (you may know him as Don Draper from previous blog posts), Magnus, Mikkel (seated), and Jens. There are actually more boys, but some of them were out at the shows when I took this darling little picture.

Wood Wood S/S 2011
August 12th 2010, Posted By susanne In Fashion Theory
You can’t tell from the picture, but all the camping-friendly clothes and backpacks at Wood Wood were drenched in water. Kinda like us, since there are apparently no taxis in Copenhagen whatsoever and although the fashion bus is very nice (they serve food on there AND surprise you with presents – London, take note) it wasn’t an option today when our schedule took us off the on-schedule road… More on that to come.

Jean//Phillip S/S 2011
August 12th 2010, Posted By susanne In Fashion Theory
“That whole desert-trooper look is sort of big in Copenhagen, no?” said Jens Laugesen as we left the City Hall, where young master Jean-Phillip had just shown his third collection. Jens wasn’t just referring to the draped, washed-out fabrics we’d just witnessed on the runway, but also to the hordes of bedouin-looking boys who were hanging out outside the building.
As per usual, my incredible photography skills made sure I didn’t capture any of the key draped pieces, so you’ll just have to check those out in DANSK Daily instead.

Seats, please
August 12th 2010, Posted By susanne In Standing Ticket
We hate to bitch, but We have to bitch. What’s up with the seating at CFW?
It’s really most delightful to arrive at a show only to be told one’s seat ’sadly isn’t available any longer.’ Um, last time we checked this wasn’t EasyJet. Or a job vacancy. How very uncivilised.
So, what? It’s first come, first served? Funny that, we thought a ticket request and a simple rsvp meant something. And not to be funny or anything, but when a 13-year-old ‘fashion kid’ is sitting in your seat, it kind of makes matters worse.

A la Laugesen
August 12th 2010, Posted By susanne In Fashion Theory
Not only are Valerie Steele and Colin McDowell in town, but Danish expat Jens Laugesen is here, too. Liking the power crowd this season. Liking it a lot.
Jens, please do a label again soon. Or alternatively supply us with bespoke wardrobes. We need your take on restrained elegance.
