I Just Got Back From Oslo—6 Norwegian Brands You Need to Know About

Last week, I had the pleasure of attending Oslo Runway—an annual weeklong event designed to showcase Norway’s most exciting and talented designers and their latest collections. Now in its ninth year, the event functions as a meeting place for the Norwegian creative industry and offers a front-row view of the intersection between fashion, lifestyle, art, and culture. 

As a longtime admirer of Scandi style and design, I excitedly immersed myself in all things Norwegian fashion through a whole host of lively runway shows, presentations, and pop-ups throughout the city during my jam-packed three-day trip. I came back to L.A. with palpable excitement and my iPhone Notes app filled to the brim with exciting new brands, designers, people, and places, which I can’t wait to share with you today.

The creative excellence, sustainable ethos, passion, and pride for both tradition and innovation were unmistakable at Oslo Runway. From the strong lineup, here are six brands that really caught my eye in this month’s showcase.
