Banner Fair
“Circle” by Beatrice Brandini
Truly Beautiful this edition of Pitti Bimbo. For the quality of exhibitors and collections presented, and especially for the research, there are lots of different proposals, new and interesting.
These are my personal trends:
Winter – Fantasy – Charm – College
Winter and Fantasy, mood Beatrice Brandini
Charm and College, mood Beatrice Brandini
Winter: Heavy fabrics, wool, felted wool, teddy bear effects, fleece, corduroy … Knitwear, especially braids and English coasts . Drawings inspired jacquards ” mountain”, a mix between the Nordic fairy tale and 70s. Colors Brown, beige, rust , camel, cream.
Fantasy: unisex theme. Fabrics such as jersey, cotton stretch gabardine. “Fantastic” Prints between Halloween and zombies.Dusty colors, blue, pink, gray mélange, black and dark grey.
Charm: feminine them. Very fairytale princess, wedding, debutante ball. Precious fabrics like silk cady, taffeta, rayon, silk velvets. Volumes ballon, ruffles, bows. Colors black cherry , lilac, gold, bronze, ruby red, white.
College: unisex theme, inspired by the American campuses, the main character is a mix between the hero of team sports ( rugby, rowing, football … ) and a nerd. Jersey fabrics, fleece, tartan, denim, velvet smooth. Numbers and letters applied or embroidered. Point felt like sponge and technical applications.
As for the man, the leitmotif of these editions of Pitti is Music, music as energy, Music as exchange with fashion, Music as contamination, Music such as the choice of the new, the best, the most interesting …
Staging apartments “Home Sweat Home” by Ilaria Marelli, poetical …
Besides the famous brands which specialize in baby, or the lines of the great designers, both always very interesting, the thing that struck me most was the area known as “Apartment”, a number of Italian and foreign exhibitors who specialize in collections a little ‘more niche and targeted to lifestyle.
These are the proposals that I liked the most:

I think Pitti Bimbo is one of the best fashion shows dedicated to children in the world, even the location itself, the Fortress, is a strikingly beautiful and rich in history. This fair, once again, welcomes the excellence of Made in Italy and beyond, presenting the finest collections for children to materials, design, fabrics and workmanship. Offering a wide choice of leading companies, big brands and small companies who do research, from the great fashion content.
Good Pitti and Good life at all!
