a tribute to expression :the creatives
At this year’s Copenhagen Fashion Week COLLAGE is paying tribute to expression.
By bringing together fashion creatives, professionals and designers like Willy Chavarria, Eva Al Desnudo, Elisabet Stamm and other creatives and showcase their work, we host a night to celebrate the fashion community and inspire fashion enthusiasts of all traits. Through questions about drive, inspiration and creative expression we compiled an editorial for each along with a selection of their personal work. Check out the editorials by visiting each creative profile.
London based fashion photographer Eva Al Desnudo has worked with the likes of Highsnobiety, Vogue, Dazed and many more. Eva’s exceptional talent has been recognised by British fashion awards as a nominated creative. Her recognition goes beyond UK and has led her to work with various people across the world, American stars such as Offset from the Migos and fashion icon ASAP Rocky. We had the opportunity to get a closer insight into Eva Al Desnudo’s work through a personal interview about her creative expression.
“I have a different understanding
of beauty. I’m attracted to imperfection, so I think this
remains in all my work.”

Chavarria’s latest spring collection collaborating with Danish sports brand Hummel goes above and beyond by sponsoring a soccer organisation for immigrant asylum seekers and refugees.
