The tradeshow season kicks off with the 90th edition of Pitti Bimbo which will take place from the 16th-18th January 2020. The fashion fair which is held bi-annually in Florence, Italy has been at the epicentre of kid’s fashion for the last 45 years and established itself as the number one trade show in the kids’ fashion world. What started with clothing and fashion, has expanded and now incorporates accessories and lifestyle products.
The theme for the winter fashion fair is ‘Show Your Flags’. Pitti is like the United Nations of Fashion where every brand has its own flag, but also where each one of us can become our own flag with our unique message!
Recognising the landmark of 45 years of Pitti Immagine Bimbo the show will celebrate with new creative installations, an International portfolio of clothing labels ranging from designer to small experimental brands, alongside international collaborations and a calendar of not-to-be-missed fashion shows and exhibitions.
