The land of the beautiful people always offer up some seriously good street style, and this August’s show season is no different. The Scandi style squad have been out in force the last fews days, and we’ve spotted the likes of Pernille Teisbaek, Veronik Aheilbrunner and Sabrina Meijer at shows across the city.

Stylish showgoers have been sporting key AW16 trends - leopard print, 90s slips and ruffled shirts - as well as Scandi classics such as the ‘it’ tee and denim by the truckload. With temperatures already dropping for our Northern neighbours, this is the ideal moment to steal some inspo for the season ahead. After all, it seems we’re yet to tire of the Scandi aesthetic.
