Pitti Bimbo is the second Pitti Fair we visited
located in the heart of Tuscany, Florence. Every year thousands of buyers and
people involved in fashion travel to Italy to learn about the upcoming trends,
new brands, shapes, textiles and many other things. Every room, every brand is
there to inspire the visitors.
Although Pitti Bimbo, as the
name already tells us is for children’s wear, it can be an inspiration for
fashion people of any age.
At this year’s Pitti the main
theme is about motorcycles, which surprisingly I didn’t see a lot of brands
interpreting. Most of the collections presented by the brands were spring and
summer wear. Cotton voile dresses, chiffon skirts and mini short in printed
silk were the center of these years’ Pitti. Lively and authentic styles in
smaller versions.
There were three brands,
which caught my eye right away.
“Caco Design” an accessory brand which designs jewelry
not only for girls but also for moms. The
two designers of the brand are two mothers, who launched their brand in 2009.
The brands philosophy is that “Everyone is a child in heart”.
The second brand that I really enjoyed at the fair is
a brand named “ Golden Goose Deluxe Brand”. This brand focuses on skateboard shoes and
graphic T-Shirts for boys and girls. “GGDB’s” main aim is to put a smile on
children’s faces. That is why the profit obtained by the sale of each
collection will be given to associations, which take care of troubled children.
“Kom” an Argentinian brand
caught my eye with their interesting and colorful printed rompers. Besides
rompers they also have a home decoration line including fabrics and cushions,
as well a line of accessories such as laptop covers, bags and purses.
