Countdown to Pitti Immagine Uomo 88, the key international trade event showcasing men’s fashions and contemporary lifestyle trends will be held in Florence from tomorrow, 16 June to 19 June.
With its dynamic continuously evolving geography, Pitti Uomo is able to pick up all the signals of new moods in fashion and then present them with new and amazing projects. For example, there is the new section Openthat goes beyond gender distinctions to dictate a precise kind of style, or Unconventional, that was created to present the most vibrant voices in the area of luxury underground styles.
The looks for menswear of tomorrow are explored by Futuro Maschile and the sections dedicated to fashion research such as Touch! and l’Altro Uomo, and there are the special projects presented by the world’s biggest names, and programs that support new talents. And we should not overlook the other fascinating aspects of the event: from the excellence of the makers of the new classic to the rich world of accessories, to the brands that interpret the modern side of sportswear. Now, all this is being presented from a new angle with women’s collections no longer under a gender-sign but distributed around the fair according to styling criteria.
Pitti Uomo is reinforcing its role as the global platform for major names and international fashion
There will be 1178 brands at Pitti Uomo, with their offerings developed for the international community that throngs to Florence during the fair – over 30,000 visitors attended the last edition – representing the world’s major department stores and small retailers.
