Cecilie Bahnsen SS26: A Decade In White

Cecilie Bahnsen hosted on the final day of Copenhagen Fashion Week SS26 a homecoming celebration that marked a major milestone—ten years of her brand distilled into one luminous collection. Under the soft glow of the setting sun, the show felt both like a birthday party and a love letter to her signature vision.

A Pure Palette, Endless Possibilities

Every look was imagined in white, yet each piece carried its own personality. Bahnsen’s hallmark voluminous shapes—billowing skirts, layered ruffles, and empire-line dresses—were reworked with fresh lightness. Delicate peplums, airy fabrics, and intricate textures created a visual rhythm that was soft yet assured, romantic without tipping into excess.

Dresses That Stand Their Ground

While many collections this week embraced tailoring and separates, Bahnsen reaffirmed the enduring power of the dress. Her approach blended deconstructed femininity with Scandinavian minimalism, producing silhouettes that felt timeless, versatile, and unmistakably hers.

A Finale to Remember

The show ended with silver fireworks cascading above the runway, a sparkling celebration of the decade behind her and the chapters ahead. Models moved through the shimmering display with quiet confidence, embodying the spirit of a brand rooted in craft, detail, and poetic volume.

Cecilie Bahnsen’s SS26 collection wasn’t just a look back—it was a reminder that her language of lightness and structure is as fresh and relevant today as it was ten years ago.
