Judging by Stil in Berlin, goth punk menswear was the ‘in’ look for men attending Copenhagen Fashion Week.

The street style blog captures the hippest looks spotted on the streets of one of Germany’s most fashionable cities, but they also explore the looks sported in other European cities.

Layered black chains, John Lennon spectacles, [tattered denim shirts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/foam-clogs-1) and long black trenches were just a few of the looks spotted in Denmark’s capital this month. Adding to the goth punk menswear look were the retro 80s rocker hairstyles. Similar looks were also spotted by Stil in Vienna and of course, Berlin.
