Spring is full of reason to celebrate a season filled with 17 May, confirmation, weddings and long-awaited gatherings. With over 150 premium brands, you are welcome to find exactly your party style!
Come May, you beautiful gentle one
Get ready for the May 17 breakfast with friends, lunch with the family, the children's train followed by a potato run at school, or the barbecue in the afternoon. When National Day is to be celebrated, it really is an occasion to dress up a little extra!
May 17 outfit for you without a bunad
A perfect alternative to the bunade are light spring dresses. Go for a classic bright color in white or blue, or let soft pastels create a fresh and feminine expression. Combine linen or light coloured trousers with a floral print top, or explore earth tones inspired by nature. Throw a blazer or thin cardigan over your shoulders and you're ready for a day full of spontaneity and fun.
A hot tip for you with stilettos - Bring a pair of comfortable, flat shoes in a carrier net, and you won't have sore feet ruining the festivities!
At Høyer you will find the dress that adds that little something extra, and experienced staff who are happy to help you find exactly your personal style. The shoes that are worthy of the festivities can be found at Ecco. Scandinavian minimalism is best done at Sand Copenhagen, while classic cuts that go with everything can be found at Only.
Dresses for all parties
Which suit do you choose?
Classic black or dandy navy blue? Plain or patterned tie? Many probably associate the May 17 suit with a dark blue variant, white shirt and blue tie. The shoes must preferably be brown, the socks blue. But you could also opt for a light Summer suit in a cool material such as linen, and there's plenty to choose from at Selected Homme. Whether you prefer classic elegance or a modern silhouette, Follestad and Boss have the selection to suit every taste. Be inspired by high-quality materials, timeless cuts, and exciting accessories such as bows and silk scarves, everything available at Høyer or Companys.
A good rule of thumb is that the belt should be the same color as the shoes, and that colorful details often shine best as accessories.
Høyer's tips for the perfect suit:
• Choose a suit jacket that fits close to the body and follows the body's natural lines. You should just be able to get your hand between the jacket and the shirt.
• With the correct arm length, approx. 1.5-2 cm of the shirt protrudes from the sleeve when the arms are held relaxed down the side.
• Narrow suit trousers should barely touch the top of the shoes. Wide suit trousers should fall slightly above the shoe heel and have a natural fall with a small fold in the front.
• The tip of the tie should hit just above the belt buckle.
If you're the type who doesn't want to find a suit, you'll find bright chinos, relaxed shirts, pique t-shirts, patterned blazers, or classic v-sweaters as excellent options to tie your May 17 bow to!

Festive season accessories
Stylish silver to warm gold. The jewelery you choose for the spring festivities reflects both personality and contrasts with the outfit.

Get the perfect party hairstyle
The secret to getting a hairstyle that lasts all day is to prep your hair with products adapted to your hair. At Lyko you will find everything you need for a lasting May 17 hairstyle.
Here are three tips for styling your hair:
Braids are a popular choice on 17 May and last all day with a good texture spray or texture powder. Feel free to decorate the braid with a buckle or bunad hair band/bunads shawl if you have one.
A low knot is classic and timeless, and goes with any outfit. Decorate with a silk ribbon for "that little something extra"!
Curls give a nice nationally romantic look. A good tip is to curl your hair the day before, then the styling will be much easier and will look nicer. For those with natural curls; curls are naturally low in moisture, so prepare your hair with good moisturizing products that give shiny and fine curls until 17 May.
