Han Kjøbenhavn founder and creative director Jannik Wikkelsø Davidsen invited us on Thursday at 6pm at Mineralvandsfabrikken (a former mineral water factory built between 1920 and 1927) to present his AW24 collection in his hometown. The designer returns to his origins and minimises the sculptural silhouettes he usually presents at Milan Fashion Week to give us a ready-to-wear collection inspired by his adolescence, that is, by his unwavering obsession with football.
“It’s working 12 hours a day at the local sports club: being passionate about everything within the institution and the community that surrounds it. It is the respect on and off the pitch and the emotions that connect these energies. SILENCE is for movement and function. It is executed in materials that embrace exactly this: a core constructed from organic jersey and progressive nylon and technical garments, developed for movement,” the designer states about the collection.
Although the sculptural expression that characterises Han Kjøbenhavn is present in SILENCE, they are still more accessible garments: bombers, hoodies, oversized sweatpants. The sleeves become XXL and the shoulders are sharp and exaggerated. The most extreme looks are made up of thongs and high-cut bodysuits combined with dominatrix-style boots with platforms. In this way his sculptural universe is taken to a more everyday language.
