4ME4YOU FEATURES “ROLF EKROTH” DURING COPENHAGEN FASHION WEEK SS25.
Designer: ROLF EKROTH
Welcome to Rolf Ekroth’s Spring/Summer 2025 collection, “Lavatanssit,” a vivid exploration of the enigmatic allure of Finnish dance pavilions nestled in the heart of the countryside.
Drawing inspiration from the designer’s own experiences, this collection is a whimsical ode to summer nights at these iconic pavilions, capturing the essence of longing and the thrill of potential encounters. With a touch of Finnish dark humor—embodied in playful references like “hukkumisbingo,” the summer game of guessing how many revellers might end up lost in the lake—the collection delves into the human quest for connection.
Ekroth reinvents traditional dance attire with a modern twist, blending safety and elegance through dreamy hand-painted floral prints and innovative silhouettes. Experience the fusion of classic and contemporary with tailored suits that redefine relaxed sophistication, and flowing dresses that evoke the romance of lakeside dances. Delicate handmade lace collars, a hand-knitted macramé bag, and dandelion jeans adorned with 250 handcrafted pendants showcase the meticulous artistry behind each piece, with over 200 hours spent creating each pair. The collection’s bombers, detailed with hand-knitted pendants, offer a distinctive touch of craftsmanship.
As you immerse yourself in these images, take a closer look at the intricate details and innovative designs that bring “Lavatanssit” to life. Let each piece tell its story, inviting you to experience the charm and complexity of Finnish summer nights.
