WoodWood on the Runway

Our friends at WeAreTheMarket have made the trip to fashion week in Copenhagen. They know, as we all do, how influential Scandinavian design, particularly designers from Copenhagen, have been over the last few seasons. As they tell it,"we finally decided to get on over to Copenhagen for the CPH and Gallerie Shows, to soak up some Nordic influence and meet some cool people and cool brands. We caught the Danish brand Wood Wood's fashion show earlier this evening. For it's 7th collection, called the "big bang" collection, Wood Wood considers serious issues such as global warming, Armageddon, and the futuristic idea of space colonization. For men, classic and casual streetwear-- basic tees, classic shirts, chinos, jeans, knitwear and sweatshirts-- are twisted into interesting silhouettes. Fabrics range from classic mix of dark navy corduroy, light denim chambray, check flannel, to lambswool knitwear. Womenswear reflected a tomboyish edge using menswear materials, colors, and shapes. We personally love the plaid knee length shorts!"

"And always known for their exciting collaborations, Wood Wood teamed up again with heritage outerwear maker Penfield with a new bordeaux-red leather jacket."

The Spring/Summer '08 collection will be landing in stores in the next couple weeks. You will be able to find it online at NewDandyism. We'll keep you posted when these items and more become available.
