With Esprit unveiling an experiential shopping hub at Illum in Copenhagen, the beloved brand is front of mind for us as we enter the festive season. Here, Vogue Scandinavia's editor in chief Martina Bonnier and senior fashion editor Maria Barsoum, pick their favourites from Esprit's newly-released holiday collection
As we avidly browse Esprit's fresh holiday drop – both online and at Copenhagen's Illum department store – it's clear to Vogue Scandinavia's editors that the beloved brand has kept both festivity and functionality in mind: a key consideration as we plan to navigate parties during the peak of Nordic winter. A sequinned midi skirt and sleek turtleneck tick the sartorial box for seasonal office celebrations, while sturdy boots, a herringbone coat and puffer tote are top of our lists for frosty social outings ahead.
According to Maria Barsoum, Esprit's slinky navy tailored set is a stand-out to note. "I'm glad to see that Esprit designed a satin suit for their holiday collection," she comments. "Especially since it's in navy blue, a personal favourite. A satin suit is perfect for any occasion during the winter season, it can easily be worn up or down with accessories," Barsoum notes.
Elsewhere, Esprit gives Scandinavian staples a fête-ready twist. One example favoured by Martina Bonnier is a boxy denim jacket and jeans given an eye-catching metallic twist. "I’m a denim lover and I adore Esprit's new take of metallic finishing. It gives my total jeans look a new interesting edge," Bonnier remarks.
