Side parts and lilac lips.
Copenhagen Fashion Week Spring 2027 is in full swing. While the bold Danish street style is impossible to miss, we’ve been obsessing over the minute beauty details showing up on the runways.
As a general rule, the Danes tend to let their clothes do the talking. All that colour, texture and pattern is balanced with barely-there makeup and relaxed hair.

And while it may be subtle, the beauty mood this season has us particularly excited for an Australian spring. From flushed, Period-drama cheeks to the modern lilac lip, here are the looks we can’t stop thinking about.
Glass skin at Malene Birger

Fresh, dewy skin is always a mainstay on the CPHFW runways, and this year was no exception. At Malene Birger, barely-there makeup was accentuated with gloss on the models’ cheekbones, catching the dappled light.
Recreate the look: Apply a transparent highlighter, like Isamaya Face Glaze, to the tops of your cheekbones and eyelids.
Side parts at Stine Goya

Effortless and feminine, the beauty at Stine Goya was defined by deep side-parted hair and a pop of lilac blush.
Recreate the look: With a tail comb and a prayer.
Lavender lips at Opérasport

The 2010s are so back. At Opérasport, models made a statement with cool-toned matte lips, ranging from deep violet to lilac greige.
Recreate the look: Choose a lilac-hued lip colour in a shade or two deeper (or lighter) than your natural lip tone. Gucci Beauty Matte Lipstick in Anne Lilac or Violette Fr Bisou Balm in Bonbon Myrtille are nice options.
Farmers market flush at Skall Studio

At Skall Studio, models looked like they’d stepped out from the English countryside in a Period drama. Rosy blush was placed lower on the cheekbones to exaggerate a romantic, summery flush.
Recreate the look: Apply a deep warm blush, like Fara Homidi Beauty’s Essential Blonzer in Velle, or Violette Fr Plume Blush in Ambre Rouge Fume on the apples of the cheeks and below, where you’d normally place bronzer. Finish with a brush of brow gel and a big hat.
