The Influence

Denise Nørgaard

The Copenhagen-dwelling fashion CEO is a pin-up for easy glamour that shapeshifts through the seasons just so.

What style means to you.

Style is an art form - an individual experience and expression that differs from person to person. Style is about dressing in a way that makes you feel empowered and connected to yourself.

The appeal of the Birger Christensen Collective to women today?

In a world overcrowded with fashion choices, ROTATE and REMAIN continue to be forward-thinking. Both brands remain true to their core with ROTATE being a home for everyday glamour and embracing your body, and REMAIN crafting long-lasting wardrobe staples that instill confidence. But both brands are evolving all the time: looking at what women want and moving with them.

The items that will forever be in your wardrobe?

Coats. They are the backbone of my wardrobe! A perfectly tailored blazer, well-fitted jeans and a crisp white t-shirt are also evergreens.

The piece of jewellery that means the most.

My rings from Danish designer, Sophie Bille-Brahe which are like pieces of art: refined, natural and totally unique.

The best style advice you’ve been given.

Always remove a piece you’ve put on. It might sound cliched, but it truly works.

Artists and makers that continue to inspire you.

I am always inspired by ambitious women who succeed in juggling both their careers and home life, and that can be said across all industries.

How do you switch off?

Spending time with my children is my opportunity to switch off from my work life, and be totally in the moment.

A wellness ritual that you swear by.

Practicing regular Pilates is an escape for me, both for my physical and mental health.

A scent with the most memories and the beauty product that you can’t go without.

BYREDO’s Rose of No Man’s Land scent is tinged with memories for me – both positive and difficult memories – it reminds me of where I have come, and how I have grown. My beauty essentials would have to be a good waterproof mascara and Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk lipstick.

The best gift you’ve given and/or received.

My children!

What’s on the horizon for AW24.

Rich colours and soft textures are on my moodboard for AW24 – lots of burgundy and chocolate brown, and suede, obviously.

On your wishlist?

I am dreaming of a shearling coat from MENTLOVA, the Czech brand by Ivana Mentlova.
