It doesn't always have to be Paris, Milan, London or New York - these 4 cities make the hearts of fashion lovers beat faster.
The days are slowly getting longer again, and although spring is still a bit of a wait, fashion designers around the world are already presenting their creations for the 2022 summer season. But it doesn't always have to be Paris, Milan, London or New York for a shopping trip. Other metropolises also have an exciting range of local and international fashion to stock up your closet for the coming season.
The Danish capital has long been known for timeless minimalism and clever design. In recent years, however, the dreamy port city has established itself as one of the most important emerging fashion capitals in the world. The looks annually presented at Copenhagen Fashion Week are anything but monotonous and always provide a breath of fresh air in the European fashion world. If you're looking for exciting new pieces that are, above all, wearable, Copenhagen is the place to be. The designs from labels like Stine Goya, Day Birger et Mikkelsen and Ganni bieten die perfekten Outfits, um bei einem Spaziergang am Nyhavn gesehen zu werden und den Christiansborg Palast zu besuchen. Vintage-Liebhaber sollten sich einen Besuch bei Time's Up Vintage . Don't miss the chance to find rare archival goods from labels like Dior, Gucci and Yves Saint Laurent.

That Italy is a center for fashion and design is nothing new. For a long time, however, the iconic capital was overshadowed by Milan and Florence in terms of fashion. That has since changed. While Milan and Florence are dominated by the big labels, Rome has become an up-and-coming place for up-and-coming talent, where young designers have the chance to live it up and showcase their offbeat creations. Young labels like Casa Preti, Francesca Cottone and Alberto Audenino geben auf Roms Straßen bereits heute den Ton von morgen an und setzen kontinuierlich neue Trends. Der absolute Fashion-Hotspot ist und bleibt der Piazza di Spagna, weltberühmt für die spanische Treppe – und die angrenzenden Gassen, wie die Via Condotti and the Via Borgognona, wo alle großen Namen der Modewelt vertreten sind. Neben zahllosen Shopping-Möglichkeiten, bietet Rom genauso viele Gelegenheiten, extravagante Mode zu tragen. Die ewige Stadt ist der perfekte Ort, um die extravagantesten Outfits auszupacken und sogar an einem Wochentag einen umwerfenden Auftritt hinzulegen.
