Gróa on You

Gróa Debut Clothing Collection

For all your dreams of world travel, the only Copenhagen you’ve experienced was under the influence of Schlitz and a convincing cowboy’s handsome (albeit stained) smile.

Though you’ve been around enough to know the Danes have wads of style.

Gro Abrahamsson is no exception. Inspired by the nomadic spirit, the Casch Copenhagen designer just launched Gróa.

Billowy dresses and blouses establish the label’s feminine charms: Witness the peach cotton dress with an empire waist and a bubble hem. Sleek tailoring on slim pants, vests, and skirts keeps the collection cool and edgy. Just look to the black and white print skirt or voluminous scarf for the right amount of pop.

And the perfect thing to pack after you chew over your travel plans.

Available at Merge, 611 North 35th Street (206-782-5335 or mergeboutique.com).
