Jørgen Nørgaard

  • Ribbed cotton knitwear
  • Everyday basics
  • Youthful ready-to-wear

Jørgen Nørgaard combined fashion retail with his own clothing designs through Nørgaard paa Strøget in Copenhagen. His fine ribbed cotton T-shirt, introduced in 1967, became a lasting reference within Danish fashion.
