Sinead O'Dwyer Brings Accessibility to Copenhagen Fashion Week

Sinead O'Dwyer is always one to watch, and that didn't change just because she moved from London Fashion Week to Copenhagen. If anything, the Irish designer's Danish debut was a level above her previous showcases, thanks partly to the city's glorious Opera Park in which the show was held, and in majority due to O'Dwyer's affinity for accessibility.

Working with a foundation that supports the visually impaired, the designer's showcase saw its usual slew of real models, including London-based models Jade O'Belle and Skye Standley, along with a blind model and her guide dog. This may well have been the first-ever guide dog to appear on a fashion week runway, something that -- now we've said it -- feels like a massive oversight on the industry's part, and yet, O'Dwyer is showing us all just how easy it is to be inclusive.

The designer also enlisted global superstar Mahalia to walk the runway, a prominent advocate for body diversity. At last, a celebrity on the runway that actually makes perfect sense.
