New York, Milan, Paris and London, how do you look at Copenhagen as a fashion city in Scandinavia?
I think that many designers are doing great things, but when I think of fashion cities I think it is quite natural that they are called fashion cities because of their size and population and the fact that there are many different people doing very different things. Of course it would be bigger here if there where more people in Copenhagen – and if you would put 5 million people on Iceland, there would be more things happening up there, but it still wouldn’t be a fashion capital. But I think Denmark will never be where those big cities are; we don’t have enough people to make it any bigger than it already is. Concerning creativity, I think most of the well known Danish designers are doing pretty much the same. Of course there is always someone who is designing unique clothes, like Henrik Vibskov, but you also see that in other cities, and more of it, actually.
