Join us behind the scenes of Copenhagen Fashion Week as ELLE magazine, together with prize-winning photographer Lasse Bak Mejlvang, showcases a collection of snapshots from 15 years of fashion week. The exhibition is displayed in the museum garden.<\/strong><\/p>\n Every February and August, Copenhagen Fashion Week breathes extra life into the city’s streets, alleys, squares, and museums, as the fashion industry takes over spaces and public areas with a vital mix of colors, shapes, and agendas on the program. The Danish fashion magazine ELLE has been part of it for 15 years, both front row at fashion shows and backstage with models, stylists, and designers. This year, as the magazine celebrates its 15th anniversary, it kicks off the fashion week with a large retrospective exhibition of backstage photography from past fashion weeks – captured by prize-winning photographer Lasse Bak Mejlvang.<\/p>\n Models queuing up behind the curtain before the music starts, a much-needed break on a bench between shows, a hectic change of clothes just seconds before the next turn on the catwalk.
