  • Skagen Celebrates Worldpride in Denmark with New Aaren Pride Styles and Continued Partnership with Interpride
    SKAGEN CELEBRATES WORLDPRIDE IN DENMARK WITH NEW AAREN PRIDE STYLES AND CONTINUED PARTNERSHIP WITH INTERPRIDE Richardson, Texas – August 5, 2021 – Skagen is thrilled to celebrate WorldPride in Copenhagen — the highly-anticipated biannual global event that promotes visibility and awareness of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender issues on a global scale — with a continuation of our Aaren Pride collection that was released in tandem with a minimum $25,000 donation to InterPride in 2021. We support their mission of promoting LGBTQI+ Pride on an international level and we’re proud to release these new limited-edition Pride styles commemorating Danish heritage. Inspired by the iconic 17th-century Nyhavn waterfront houses in Copenhagen, our Aaren Copenhagen style features a colorful, lenticular face to celebrate your Pride year-round. The collection now also features two new timepieces with long-time partner, Hoptimist. Founded in the late 1960s, Danish designer Gustav Ehrenreich created a Happy Movement with the Hoptimist, a bobble-headed and fabled figurine with a cheery disposition and endless optimism. Like Skagen, Hoptimists embrace love, which can now be shown off with exclusive timepieces featuring pairings of two brides and two grooms. Also launching in Skagen’s Pride collection are two beaded bracelets inspired by the rainbow and transgender flags. The Copenhagen and Hoptimist watches (41MM case size) retail for $125, and the bracelets retail for $40. For more information on the Aaren Pride collection and to stay updated on what’s to come, please visit skagen.com and follow @skagendenmark. Skagen Since 1989, we’ve been inspired by Skagen City and the Danish coastline.
