August often feels like we’re teetering on the precipice – no longer quite in the lull of mid-year, and just about to enter the chaos, the madness, of global fashion weeks. Of course, we’re already in the throes of Copenhagen Fashion Week for its SS27 season, which has already given us plenty of fashion moments to mull over (That Nicklas Skovgaard runway entry on the back of a Ford Mustang convertible? The Garment’s show at Thorvaldsens Museum in Copenhagen? Iconic.) But let’s not forget that there are plenty of fashion moments happening off the runways too. And luckily for you, we’re here to round them all up for you, below.
