You cannot talk about fashion without needing to defend yourself, wrote Elizabeth Wilson in her book Adorned in Dreams: Fashion and Modernity in 1985. Nowadays, this attitude has changed. Fashion is treated as art and there is no excuse for it.
Art becomes a common commodity due to the wealth in society. Suddenly, art is something everybody wants - and not least to have an opinion about - even if they aren’t experts...
However, I can notice a tiny difference between fashion shows in Łódz and in Copenhagen – in Poland there are children and dogs of kind-of-famous people <where “famous” means you can walk in tight top with glass of water and you are celebrity on the red carpet> in the first row. In Copenhagen I saw fashion journalists, photographers and fashion agents. I glad that I saw it, because now I’m sure that Fashion Week Poland has to improve a lot (I’m not talking about the level of fashion, because we have a huge potential of creativity, but we are still far away considering the organization of event).
Then, maybe in 10 years we can achieve the level of fashion which Copenhagen has – well tailored, classic in style and playful in expression attitude. I don’t want to copy Copenhagen Fashion Week. I just miss a good level of fashion performance which corresponds with Polish designs.
Speaking of high-quality fashion, just see on your own:
SAMUJI – a minimalistic collection
The dark look (emphasized by black lips) matched the clothes which were characteristic for Scandinavian Style. Simply look is defined by straight lines and narrow range of colors: black, grey and white. Do you know what is amazing about classis, grown-up look? You can use it season after season!

GESTUZ – a grunge Barbie Style
Heavy boots, skirts in diverse lengths, mini dresses and tight jackets – all in leather make us sure that sequins and fringes are gone (uffff, finally!)

Fashion writers can keep convincing us that 21 century is dealing with polyphony of trends. However, during the Copenhagen Fashion Week, one style was really strong – its called by the fashion critiques the contradictions of the Russian culture and society.
SOUL LAND presented a sweatshirt made by inspiration from Russian artist Kazimir Malevich with circle print on the front, styled with a button-up white shirt.

ASGER JUEL LARSEN show his passion for the late Soviet and grungy fashion twist (the style of true Muscoviet army, wearing authentic Russian ushanka hats in fur, dressed to cope with winter revolution in the USSR – all in black and gray, interrupted by a loud, political red).

Fashion Magazines called the latest Danish Fashion the wearable, “confident and sensuous Nordic sensibility” – but is it still Nordic? I would say that I saw more Russian elements that Scandinavian…
