It might not be quite as flashy as some of the more high-profile fashion weeks, but Oslo Fashion Week is one of my favourites for its Scandinavian charm and fuss-free energy. Beyond the mesmerising runway shows, the Scandi street style crowd gives me reason enough to get excited. Bringing new-season trends to the Norwegian capital whilst digging up some Scandi favourites, Oslo's stylish dressers know how to woo a fashion editor.
I’ve curated a selection of the most striking street style looks I spotted during this Oslo Fashion Week, so keep reading to discover the standout styles that should be on your radar right now.
1. LEOPARD PRINT
Style Notes: Leopard print is back as the season's most in-demand print, and fashion people can't get enough. Before winter takes the helm and you pull out your leopard-print coat, shop a less-committed item to dip your toe into the trend.
SHOP LEOPARD-PRINT:
Ganni's leopard-print jeans are a fashion person's favourites.
This is so easy to style.
A leopard-print skirt is an easy way to add some character to an outfit.
2. LONG SHORTS
Style Notes: Early autumn calls for tactical styling, and long shorts are one of my favourite ways to tackle the change of season. For added warmth, style them with knee-high socks or pair them with tall biker boots if the weather really starts to dip.
SHOP LONG SHORTS:
These would look very chic with a kitten heel.
Style with the coordinating black top and jacket for the full look.
Shop the matching Ribbed Tank Top (£45) and Pleated Open-Lapel Jacket (£75).
These also come in black.
3. KITTEN-HEEL MULES
Style Notes: Both poised and practical, kitten-heel mules were a favourite amongst showgoers in Oslo. Far more comfortable than traditional heels, they give a super-chic finish to so many looks with a fraction of the discomfort.
SHOP KITTEN-HEEL MULES:
These also come in a light-beige shade.
Style with a white cotton skirt or wear with straight-leg jeans.
The square toe adds an interesting point of difference.
4. SUEDE TRENCH COAT
Style Notes: Suede jackets are back in a major way for autumn 2024, and suede trench coats are shaping up to be the season's favourite buy. Take your inspo from the Scandi style set and pair it with a miniskirt and white tee, or wear with baggy jeans for a low-key look.
SHOP SUEDE TRENCH COATS:
Cinch your waist with the belt or let it hang open for a more relaxed look.
Drenched in '70s charm.
A more affordable option.
5. CAPE LAYERS
Style Notes: Cape layers have been cropping up in fashion circles for a few seasons now, but this time around, the trend is set to seep into the mainstream. Shop a coat that doubles as a dramatic cape, or opt for a draped top to create the effect.
SHOP CAPE LAYERS:
This elegant coat also comes in black.
Style this with jeans to instantly elevate your denim.
Layer this over a slip dress for an easy and elegant evening-ready outfit.
6. BUBBLE SKIRTS
Style Notes: Ask any fashion person about their favourite recent buy and they'll likely tell you about a voluminous bubble skirt. A summer success, this season we expect to see the trend continue to grow, worn layered up with wool jackets and styled with knee-high boots.
SHOP BUBBLE SKIRTS:
This also comes in blue, red and a polka-dot print.
You could style this in so many ways.
This thick-knit skirt will take you well into the autumn months with some tights.
