From 10 Corso Como to Copenhagen Fashion Week, a new CIFF collaboration brings together fashion, beauty and culture – uniting a line-up of Scandinavian darlings in a cross-city exchange that stretches from Copenhagen to Milan
Copenhagen Fashion Week AW26 has officially kicked off, and this year, we can detect a distinctly Milanese accent. CIFF has teamed up once again with the Italian fashion capital's legendary concept store 10 Corso Como, unveiling a co-created pop-up space during the fair and announcing an extended partnership that will see the concept travel south to Milan later this year. Installed across a 600-square-metre space at CIFF, the collaboration marks a deepening of a relationship that began as a creative exchange and is now evolving into something more ambitious: a moving platform that connects cities, creative communities, and audiences through fashion, design, beauty, and culture.
“To extend this collaboration beyond Copenhagen and bring the CIFF universe to the 10 Corso Como space is incredibly exciting for us,” says Sofie Dolva, director of CIFF. “It marks the continuation of a longer partnership and a new way of connecting creative communities across cities, industries, and audiences.”
For Copenhagen Fashion Week, the CIFF x 10 Corso Como space is curated through the unmistakable artistic lens of the Milanese institution, blending fashion, design, beauty, books, and lifestyle into a single immersive experience. Alongside the 10 Corso Como Signature Collection, visitors will find a selection of rare and vintage books and a café experience reinterpreted for a Nordic context – an echo of the concept store’s long-standing belief that retail should be as much about ideas as it is about objects.
The brand line-up reads like a snapshot of contemporary Scandinavian creativity. Fashion, beauty, and design names on display include Cecilie Bahnsen, Hodakova, Namacheko, Heliot Emil, Rolf Ekroth, Mismo, Monies, Tromborg, Porcelain Perfumery, Lernberger Stafsing, Obayaty, and Melyon, among others. The space is open and operating from January 27 to 29, offering buyers, press, and industry insiders a new way to experience CIFF during the fair.
“This project represents an important moment of cultural exchange with Scandinavian talents,” says Alessio de’ Navasques, cultural program curator of 10 Corso Como. “At such an unusual time for the market, 10 Corso Como, together with CIFF, proposes a new model in which fashion and beauty can also become a cultural experience.” That model will next take shape in Milan in June 2026, when the concept relocates to 10 Corso Como’s home turf, curated around a selection of Nordic brands and accompanied by activations and special projects. From Copenhagen to Milan, the collaboration points to a future where fashion fairs, retail, and culture increasingly overlap.
