PITTI IMMAGINE ARTICLES

PITTI FILATI A/W 2014-2015

One more  year, one more different topic. The central theme throughout the show during this 73 edition of Pitti Immagine Filati is LOVE.

A line of hearts made of different fabrics and located on the main installation invites us to immerse ourselves in a charming world and fall in love with the clothes on display. A different way to attract the attention of buyers that year after year visited the fair. We can not fail to mention the fourth edition of FEEL THE YARN, an opportunity for young knitwear designers to win the first prize awarded by the fair.

After hours of exhaustive search in the dozens of brands that show its merchandise, we can relax by taking a gelato in some of the cafes located on the fair. Or why not take a short break in comfortable vintage armchairs located on the main floor.

Pitti filati is not only limited to the Fortezza di Basso. After a hard day working at the fair, there's no better plan to go to the Market situated in the nearby Stazione Leopolda specially installed for the occasion. A great opportunity to dig during hours in the different vintage stores that offers us the best-known brands from the last decades.

PITTI BIMBO 77 Edition. MADE IN SPAIN

Fun, colorful and trendy style: in short Pitti Bimbo 2013.

Children are the protagonists these days at the Fortezza di Basso. And even more Spanish fashion, with the participation of 31 Spanish companies will display their collections from 27 to 29 June 2013. Due to the economic crisis we are experiencing, one of the major goals should be the internationalization of our brands. A context as Pitti Bimbo in Florence is a amazing  opportunity for our brands to make themselves known outside our boundaries and export the label "Made in Spain" as well as they search for new markets.

One of the biggest events is the fashion show scheduled on the 28th in Sala Rondino, with some of the most recognizable brands as Bóboli, Barcarola, Condor, Desigual, Losán, Mayoral and Pan con Chocolate.

Is a must not miss the colorful and fun Agatha Ruiz de la Prada designs, that make children dream of a world of fantasy.

Desigual refocus its alternative vision of fashion,  to this new kids collection, making that  smallest of the family express their personality through their own outfits.

Spain, as in the last edition of Pitti Bimbo, became one of the foreign countries with the largest number of firms participating in the fair, with a significant presence in the total foreign brands.
