The Soulfuls will bring their signature mentoring format to The Creative Hub at Nikolaj Kunsthal on August 7th, in collaboration with Kérastase.
The Pop-Up Mentoring Lounge features flash mentoring: a dynamic format of 15-minute one-to-one sessions where young applicants aged 18–30 can engage directly with leaders across the fashion and creative industries. From designers and editors to brand founders and executives, over 20 established mentors will be on site to share insights, advice, and real-world perspective.
This initiative reflects a growing commitment to making access, inclusion, and mentorship integral to the future of Danish fashion and beyond - opening doors for emerging voices and strengthening the industry through intentional dialogue and community.
The CPHFW Creative Hub is a vibrant space for discovering innovation in fashion through immersive installations and interactive experiences. Taking place on August 6–7, the Hub will feature daytime programming including talks, screenings, workshops, and thoughtfully designed spaces to explore, learn from, and be inspired by. Come connect with leading voices shaping the future of fashion and culture, a celebration of creativity, community, and what’s next for the industry.
