NEW SCHEDULE: Pitti Immagine has reshaped its packed schedule of trade shows in light of the coronavirus emergency.
Following Camera della Moda Italiana’s decision to postpone the upcoming Milan Men’s Fashion Week to September, Pitti Immagine rescheduled the 98th edition of the Pitti Uomo men’s wear trade show to run from Sept. 2 to 4 at its usual Fortezza da Basso location in Florence. The event was originally slated for June 16 to 19.
Dates for the other trade shows operated by Pitti Immagine were also changed, including the children’s wear-focused Pitti Bimbo fair now running Sept. 9 to 10. Dedicated to spinners, Pitti Filati has been confirmed but new dates have yet to be decided.
“In these weeks we have been constantly and closely in touch with Italian and international manufacturing companies and all the other players operating in the textile-clothing industry, including organizations such as Confindustria Moda and Camera della Moda Italiana,” said Pitti Immagine’s president Claudio Marenzi. “The request emerged to keep all the leading events as the Pitti ones, which will be essential tools to gradually restart the entire commercial machine of the fashion system. And that’s what we will tirelessly work on in the next months.”
