Cecilie Thorsmark, CEO of Copenhagen Fashion Week has been inaugurated into The BoF 500

Cecilie Thorsmark, CEO of Copenhagen Fashion Week has been inaugurated into The BoF 500, the definitive professional index of the people shaping the $2.4 trillion fashion industry. Marked in the Catalyst category, the accolade recognises Cecilie in evolving the role and reputation of Copenhagen Fashion Week from a regional event into a leader of sustainability within fashion.

“I am beyond honoured to be included in The BoF 500 alongside so many truly inspiring leaders shaping the global fashion industry. The recognition that this accolade puts on Copenhagen Fashion Week is important, as it spotlights the crucial work that we have done in catalyzing positive change into an event that traditionally is not associated with sustainability. I hope my appointment into the BoF 500 will inspire many others to take action on sustainability, no matter what part of industry - the responsibility to accelerate positive change should not only rely on the brands or consumers, but on every single actor in this ecosystem." - Cecilie Thorsmark, CEO Copenhagen Fashion Week
