Introducing: Miss Marie Graunboel

Not only an avid writer with her stilettos deeply rooted in the fashion industry. Marie is also an editor, stylist, radio journalist and model. Marie is a good, old friend of mine from Copenhagen and I’ve asked her to guest blog for me a couple of times during Copenhagen Fashion Week.

This is what she has to say about Danish Designer Karen Simonsen:

Elegant as ever!
After her spilt with partner Naja Munthe, Danish designer Karen Simonsen has finally found her own creative voice. A small tent in Rosenburg’s Garden packed with local celebrities and impeccably dressed fashionistas was the informal yet beautiful setting for her third show. Here the designer embraced a new notion of elegance sending out her most interesting collection to date, full of effortlessly chic jackets, slouch-pocket pants and oversize, boyish shirts. Stand-out items included a drop-dead gorgeous brocade dress that I can easily see myself in on the first day of spring 2011!
