The German capital is known for its effortless style and fashion-forward appeal. Berlin Fashion Week is the biannual event that shows off the best designers from the city and across the globe. For the city’s fashionistas, the week is a chaotic yet amazing time, filled with runway shows and fashion-centric events. But beyond the scheduled events, here are the best things to do during Fashion Week.

Catch the best street style

Some of the best fashion during Fashion Week isn’t on the runways, and in a city known for its distinctive style, you can be sure to find some of the best inspiration on the streets. With shows and events dotted around the city, you can also follow fashion bloggers to stay up to date with the latest trends or keep an eye out during your morning commute to catch the hottest looks of the season.
