THE FOUNDER

Keld Mikkelsen is the founder and owner of DAY BIRGER ET MIKKELSEN. Fashion is deep in his DNA. From his involvement with the textile industry even before his 20’s to a decade spent working in Asia. Fascinated by the exceptional craftsmanship in Hong Kong and India, Keld decided to merge ancient embroidery, patterns, prints and trimmings with contemporary silhouettes and tailoring. Transporting these amazing crafts to Denmark, where they are reincarnated into a new life through DAY BIRGER ET MIKKELSEN's three lines: DAY Main Line, 2 ND DAY, DAY HOME.
