"Daring color combinations, beautiful fabrics, father's cufflinks and a love for refined details. Meet Hanne Bloch.

2008. After a long, distinguished career at Missoni, Hanne presents her first solo collection at Copenhagen Fashion Week. Her philosophy is that a wardrobe should complement the beach or pool-side as much as it does a night out. Guided by a simple, sexy sophistication, she weaves unexpected details into pieces that combine as effortlessly as they add flourish all on their own.

From Seductive bikinis to sophisticated cat suits, floral dresses and kaftans - all of Hanne's creations add grace to the female form. Knits, silks and snakeskin combine beautifully with embroidery and silk, classic cuts and woven drapery.

Inspired by the cufflinks her mother gave her father as a token of love, finely crafted hammered gold balls have become Hanne's signature detail - a touch of nostalgia which has dazzled leading fashion magazines around the world. In circles from Copenhagen to Los Angeles it's no wonder she is quickly becoming known as - 'the next big thing'"
