Cecilie BAHNSENby Cecilie Rosted BAHNSEN

Cecilie Bahnsen is a womenswear label by the same name Danish designer.
With an MA from the Royal College of Art, London, and after working for some of the best international brands, Cecilie launched her eponymous label in 2015. She was awarded the distinguished DANSK Design Talent Award in 2016, marking her out as one of the most important new voices in Danish fashion.
Cecilie draws inspiration from traditional techniques and uses them in new and exploratory ways. Her simple and feminine silhouettes work as canvases for delicate embroidery and fabric combinations that underline an understanding of both structure and craftsmanship.
Cecilie’s elegant and effortless pieces show a love for playing with layering of transparent and opaque materials, creating a modern yet alluring look.
