503 collections expected (versus 437 at the previous winter edition), 280 of which from abroad (53% of the total), and over 6,900 buyers, making a total of just under 10,000 visitors at the last winter edition: these are the figures for Pitti Bimbo 84. From 19 to 21 January 2017 at the Fortezza da Basso in Florence, Pitti Bimbo is the most important international fair, in terms of quality and research, dedicated to children’s fashion. The reference platform for all the big international children’s fashion brands and the preview launch of collections for kids and, at the same time, an extraordinary incubator of trends that is once again investing in research and across-the-board proposals. In fact, at this edition it will launch new exhibition projects that portray the multi-faceted lifestyles and dialogue with the creative frontiers of the most sophisticated concept stores. The new features include The Nest, the project that selects and presents niche brands with a high creative content; the Fancy Room which offers accessories, special design and technology products, for fun, curious lifestyles. Plus there are the new Pitti Bimbo Editorials with the selection of accessories proposed by Pet Family, designed for the family’s other little ones; and Mini Traveler, which proposes lots of fun objects for traveling. Moving on to the new series of special catwalk shows dedicated to the luxury collections of Apartment and the experimentation of Kidzfizz. And much more just waiting to be discovered!

PITTI DANCE OFF, the theme of the winter fairs

Pitti Dance Off is the theme of the Pitti Immagine winter fairs. The protagonist is dance as the need to move around in rhythm to express oneself, as energy, as freedom of personal style. It will be playfully and ironically represented by a gesture, the finger tut, in the spirit of street dance and destined to spread virally. A kind of “tell me how you dance and I’ll tell you how you’ll dress”’: next January, young and old alike will be moving to the rhythm of Pitti Dance Off. With a layout project curated by Oliviero Baldini.

Some of the HIGHLIGHTS of this edition: launches, special projects and returns

Monnalisa premieres the new Monnalisa Living by Savio Firmino concept, a special collection of co-branded furnishing accessories with the famous Florentine company, the result of the meeting of two excellences in their respective sectors.

Elisabetta Franchi debuts with Elisabetta Franchi La Mia Bambina: the brand’s first collection for little girls, a proposal which is rich in volumes, fabrics and details that “steals” some of the wearability of the women’s collection.

John Richmond Jr returns to the fair in order to reaffirm a unique style that combines brashness, a luxury inclination and street style, adapting them to the world of children;

Pitti Dance Off: questo il tema dei saloni invernali di Pitti Immagine.

Appena concluso Pitti Uomo, ecco che dal 19 al 21 gennaio Firenze si prepara ad accogliere buyers e stampa per mostrare tutte le novità del childrenswear (e non solo) per l’autunno/inverno 2017/18 con Pitti Bimbo 84… a suon di musica!

A richiamare il tema dei saloni di gennaio, all’interno di Superstreet le Cyber Dancers, sculture fluttuanti come elementi sospesi tra design e lighting, realizzate dall’architetto Nicolò Bernardini, in collaborazione con l’artista Antonio Massarutto.

Childrenswear e non solo…

Una fiera sempre più internazionale – basti pensare che su 503 marchi presenti 280 (il 53%) sono stranieri – e che offre sempre maggior spazio anche ad altri settori, come il design e gli accessori.

Il mio coup de coeur avviene stagione dopo stagione ad Apartment: che decida di cominciare o terminare Pitti Bimbo in questo luogo un po’ magico, un pezzetto del mio cuore rimane sempre ad Apartment. La sofisticata selezione di collezioni internazionali di abbigliamento e accessori, allestita secondo il progetto creativo di Ilaria Marelli, a Pitti Bimbo 84 ricreerà al Rondino con una speciale sfilata l’atmosfera di un Atelier, con modalità di presentazione da maison d’Haute Couture.

Si amplia la sezione KidzFIZZ, che raccoglie le collezioni più creative dei marchi che lavorano sulla sperimentazione di forme, materiali e modalità di presentazione: una proposta dedicata al pubblico internazionale più evoluto.

Monnalisa presenta in anteprima il nuovo concept Monnalisa Living by Savio Firmino, una speciale collezione di complementi d’arredo realizzata in co-branding con la celebre azienda fiorentina, nata dall’incontro di due eccellenze nei rispettivi settori. Elisabetta Franchi debutta a Pitti Bimbo 84 con Elisabetta Franchi La Mia Bambina: la prima collezione del brand a misura di bambina, una proposta ricca di volumi, tessuti e dettagli che “ruba” alcune vestibilità della collezione donna. John Richmond Jr torna a Firenze per riaffermare il suo stile unico, che coniuga grinta, inclinazione luxury e street style, declinandoli al mondo del bambino. Manuel Ritz sceglie Pitti Bimbo come piattaforma per il debutto esclusivo della sua collezione for kids.

La collaborazione con Bologna Children’s Book Fair porterà al salone “The Extraordinary Library”, una selezione di piccole case editrici d’eccellenza provenienti da tutto il mondo, con i loro 100 libri per ragazzi e le loro pagine straordinarie.
