Samenvatting:

The first comprehensive study of the Copenhagen fashion culture in English, aims to inspire future generations of thinkers, creators, and practitioners in fashion and design fields to make the fashion industry more sustainable, ethical, and just. Latest in the Urban Chic series. 100 b/w illus.

Copenhagen has long been celebrated for its unique fashion, design, innovation, and sustainability practices, and yet there has never been a comprehensive history of Copenhagen fashion and its current innovation and sustainability drive. This book fills that gap, assembling a multidisciplinary roster of contributors to examine all aspects of Copenhagen fashion and culture. Grounded in a broad context of Danish culture, industry, media, technology, sustainability, and innovation practices within the wider cultural and economic fields of fashion, the book helps us understand what makes Copenhagen unique.
