Fashion People Won't Stop Wearing the Copenhagen Blouse Trend

published 14 March 2024

There's a new top trend on the scene, and fashion people are taking to it like ducks to water. Featuring tie-front details and a comfortable, boxy cut, the top in question is one we've seen before, but now that it's featuring heavily in the recent wardrobe rotations of Scandi women, we've given it a new moniker: "the Copenhagen blouse".

Speeding its way around fashion circles, the Copenhagen blouse is setting itself up as one of spring's most important buys. Ideal for styling with denim in the early spring months, the Copenhagen blouse offers a breezy, casual finish that wears well with colourful trainers or open-toe sandals. Found in light cotton and linen fabrics, the lightweight top layers well for in-between days but can hold its own when the sun is shining.

Quickly becoming a new staple amongst retailers, the Copenhagen blouse is championed by European brands such as Ganni and Damson Madder but has also been picked up by high-street heroes including H&M and Anthropologie this season.

Offering a subtle take on the bow-detail trend, the Copenhagen blouse nods to the blossoming coquette aesthetic without letting it dictate the energy of the full outfit.

Already a favourite amongst so many of the most stylish influencers (Scandi or not), read on to shop my edit of the best Copenhagen blouses.
