“It’s based on the story of a flower that’s grown in brutal conditions – blossoming through the metallic spirals that define the beauty and shape of it,” Han Kjøbenhavn founder Jannik Wikkelsø Davidsen tells British Vogue.
“To recreate this was special, and a unique process for my team,” Davidsen explains of making Beyoncé’s custom look. “It’s empowering, yet fragile; it’s beautiful, but imperfect – it has a conflict, but also a lot of texture, which makes it feel raw.” The all-black look features a bodysuit that cinches at the waist, a voluminous taffeta top, and a chrome spiral detail that wraps around the arms.
It helped that the Danish designer is member of the Beyhive. “I love everything about Beyoncé – she’s an artist on a different level,” Davidsen muses. “Not only in terms of the sound she puts out there – and, of course, the vocals – but also the way she creates a world around each project with extreme depth. It’s incredibly rare.”
The Han Kjøbenhavn brand is founded on the synergy between fashion and art. Davidsen views the pieces in his collections like Brutalist sculptures, with an emphasis on silhouettes. But there’s underlying sentiment, too. “I create objects that I find interesting, beautiful, and emotional – I tell personal stories in my work and the core of that always defines the shapes,” says the designer.
