11 influencers reveal what's really in their CPHFW handbags

Look inside a sartorial savant's handbag, and you're likely to find the usual suspects: Gum wrappers, old receipts, several lip products, miscellaneous jewellery, and a rogue AirPod (begging for a charge, of course). But during fashion week, we need to be a little more considerate about what we carry with us. Lint has no place at a runway show, nor does a receipt from a dinner you went to three weeks ago. Instead, the long days hopping from one show to the next call for an arsenal of necessities: Snacks, a water bottle, a charger, and something with which to capture it all.

And, of course, who knows the must-haves of a fashion week bag better than an influencer. Running from show to show and clocking multiple fashion weeks a year, they know exactly what items earn their keep.

With this in mind, we turned to some of our favourite content creators, who have revealed what they carried around this Copenhagen Fashion Week. From Emili Sindlev's emergency accessories to Tine Andrea's unexpected toy addition, here's what was actually in the handbags of influencers during CPHFW spring/summer '27.

During Copenhagen Fashion Week, there are a few things you'll never find Emili Sindlev without. "I always carry my lip kit, Rhode highlight milk, and a few makeup essentials," she explains. "And, I always have a few SINDLEVA pieces with me. Diamonds are the easiest way to elevate an outfit, and I love being able to switch things up during the day."

Alva Sperle is firm on the essentials that have to be in her fashion week bag. "I always carry my go to lip combo and switch up my accessories depending on my mood," she says. "I'm especially loving a bangle stack right now, and I'm completely obsessed with my new silver Mockberg watch."
