Denmark has a new PM, Helle Thorning Schmidt, or Gucci Helle as she’s know locally.
Fashpolitico first spotted HTS whilst working in the European Parliament in 200o. She was young, glamorous, beautiful and elected. Who would not want to be her?! But then she was drawn into years of negotiations about exposure to noise, vibrations, electo-magnetic fields and optical radiation in the workplace, and the glamour somewhat wore off.
One area where she has always been consistent is her style.
Colour and pearls – smart and sassy. A good look.
It’s early, it’s election day, you’re knackered, a bright spotty on trend scarf lifts the early morning look and sets the tone for the day: if you want to look fabulous vote for me!
And here she is with Stephen Kinnock last year. Navy and black is the look of this season so she was ahead of the curve there. Frankly Fashpolitico is mainly jealous of the fact she has an event which requires a dress like this.
As the new Head of Government for Denmark I’m sure there will be many more black tie occasions. But for the moment, I suspect she is focussing on constructing the first centre-left Government in Denmark for 10 years. Best of luck to her.
