Copenhagen Fashion Week Aug 9 - 12 announces emerging designer support scheme

Copenhagen Fashion Week (August 9 - 12 2022) has announced the commencement of its emerging designer support scheme CPHFW NEWTALENT supported by Circulose® that formalises its dedication to supporting visionary talent of the Nordics. 

The first brands to be supported in the scheme are A. Roege Hove, Latimmier and P.L.N.

CPHFW NEWTALENT is established by Copenhagen Fashion Week to nurture, develop, and promote emerging Nordic talent on a global scale. The scheme creates new opportunities for the three emerging designers via monetary support, mentorships, partnership offerings, professional advisors, onboarding to the official Copenhagen Fashion Week show schedule, event participation, showroom activations, alumni network, and extensive PR through Copenhagen Fashion Week’s international community and channels.

The three brands within the CPHFW NEWTALENT support scheme will be enrolled for three consecutive seasons. Subsequently each brand will graduate on to the alumni scheme, that will continue supporting the graduates of the CPHFW NEWTALENT support scheme across showcasing, events, networking, business support, communication and sponsorship opportunities.

Cecilie Thorsmark, CEO Copenhagen Fashion Week said Copenhagen Fashion Week is investing in the next generation of exceptional talent. "With responsibility an overarching and foundational focus of our organisation, this scheme will allow us to continue to grow our dedication to talent. It is a vital step we have taken to provide an encompassing program for the talents to build their brand on an international scale and to introduce them to our global audience,” Said Cecile.

Copenhagen Fashion Week has meanwhile unveiled the SS23 Show Schedule.  Taking place from August 9 - 12, the new schedule will present 35 shows alongside a curated list of events, presentations, talks, and activities that will soon be released.
