Copenhagen Fashion Week is always one of our favourite places to look for fashion inspiration. Known for its cool-girl approach to dressing, Copenhagen style loves mixing statement pieces with wearable, everyday staples and this season, footwear is in the statement spotlight. From sky-high platforms to playful animal prints, ballet-inspired silhouettes and funky sock pairings, these are the trends we’re taking from Copenhagen straight into our LMS collection.
If there’s one footwear trend LMS knows well, it’s the platform. Copenhagen street style has embraced statement-making footwear, and platforms are the perfect way to add height, attitude and personality to any outfit.
At LMS, platforms are at the forefront of our vision, making this trend an easy one to embrace. For a classic statement, take a look at The Debbie, our iconic platform heel that takes you effortlessly from dinner to the dance floor. Or if you’re after something a little more playful, The Twiggy brings the platform trend to life with its standout silhouette. Both are proof that adding a little extra height can completely transform an outfit.
Ring Ring, Animal print is calling and they’re having another major fashion moment!
Copenhagen knows exactly how to make it feel fresh. Rather than treating animal print as a statement reserved for special occasions, street style is showing us how easily it can become an everyday wardrobe hero.
LMS has you covered with plenty of ways to embrace the trend. The Twiggy Cow is perfect for anyone wanting to make a bold statement, while The Lily Leopard offers a softer take on the trend. For a platform leopard, there’s The Claudia, while The Betty Snake brings a little texture and edge to the look. Whether you go full statement or let your shoes speak for themselves, animal print is an easy way to make even the simplest outfit feel instantly more fashion-forward.
The ballet flat is another Copenhagen-approved trend that shows comfortable footwear can still make a serious style statement. Feminine, effortless and endlessly wearable, ballet flats have moved far beyond their traditional, delicate aesthetic.
Meet The Lily. The LMS Lily range gives the ballet-inspired silhouette a signature LMS twist, with designs including leopard, gold, brown, red and black studded styles. Wear them with relaxed denim for an effortlessly cool look, pair them with a mini skirt for something more playful, or let a statement pair of Lily's elevate a simple outfit.
One of the easiest Copenhagen trends to recreate? Shoes with socks. It’s a styling trick that can work with almost any LMS shoe and instantly gives an outfit a more considered, fashion-girl feel.
The beauty of this trend is that there are no strict rules. Play with colour, texture and contrast, or keep things simple with a classic white sock. Our personal favourite LMS combination? Socks with The Cherry. This pairing adds a playful, slightly retro feel to the statement shoe and makes the whole look feel effortlessly styled. The Cherry’s platform-inspired silhouette makes it especially fun to experiment with different sock lengths and colours.
Not quite a flat and not quite a traditional platform, flatforms are shoes with a thick, relatively even sole that gives you extra height without the dramatic incline of a heel. Think maximum impact with a much more grounded feel.
For the LMS take on the trend, look to The Elle. The Elle brings that elevated, chunky-soled aesthetic into an easy-to-wear shape, making it the perfect shoe for embracing the flatform trend. Pair yours with wide-leg trousers, a flowing dress or your favourite denim for that effortlessly cool Copenhagen-inspired finish.
