Cities such as New York, Paris, London, Barcelona and Milan are well known in the fashion world for their annual international fashion shows and their innovation when it comes to contemporary design.

Copenhagen
Denmark’s fashion scene is thriving today as never before. Sometimes referred to as the fifth European capital of fashion, Copenhagen is home to a string of successful Danish designers who are producing high fashion items for international trade fairs and annual fashion weeks. For example, designer Christina Exsteen’s Spring Summer 2017 collection By Malene Birger was particularly well received at Copenhagen Fashion Week in August 2016.
