Behind the Curtain: Backstage at Copenhagen Fashion Week AW17

Watching painstakingly-assembled outfits come down the runway can be fun, to be sure, but have you ever wondered what it’s like backstage during fashion shows? We set out to capture not just the outcome, but all the hard work and exciting, fun, rushed moments that go into creating that sleek finished product. The result is a window into what the designers, make-up artists, hair stylists, producers, and many more do during the wild ride that is fashion week.

Here’s what it looks like behind the scenes of some of the best Copenhagen Fashion Week AW17 runway shows:
