  • Comment: The BT article is the strongest of the sources, and probably the only one that meets the WP:GNG standard, but it alone isn't enough to establish notability. DoubleGrazing (talk) 11:21, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: Please fix your COI declaration. You may also want to take note of WP:COI, which states "COI editing is strongly discouraged on Wikipedia. It undermines public confidence and risks causing public embarrassment to the individuals and companies being promoted. Editors with a COI are sometimes unaware of whether or how much it has influenced their editing. If COI editing causes disruption, an administrator may opt to place blocks on the involved accounts."

Saks Potts is a Scandinavian fashion brand established in 2014 by childhood friends Cathrine Saks and Barbara Potts.[1] The brand draws inspiration from the Copenhagen lifestyle and various global influences. Saks Potts was founded with the aim of creating distinctive and vibrant winter coats, leading to the release of the brand's first product, the Foxy Coat, from which the brand has gained notoriety.[2]

Saks Potts emphasizes craftsmanship, using materials such as Harris Tweed wool, Thomas Mason cotton poplin, and certified leathers. Saks Potts typically presents its collections during Copenhagen Fashion Week.[3]

The brand has attracted a diverse customer base, including celebrities such as Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, and Rihanna.[4] While predominantly producing womenswear, Saks Potts also offers unisex products.

Saks Potts has received multiple Elle Style Awards[5] and has been featured on Forbes' 30 Under 30 list.[6] In November 2023, the brand was awarded the Wessel & Vett Fashion Prize.[7]

Saks Potts' products are available through various global retailers, including Nordstrom and Selfridges. The brand operates a physical store at Bredgade 73, Copenhagen, in the former apothecary associated with the Royal Danish Academy of Surgery.
