The premieres, the numbers and what\u2019s new at Pitti Bimbo:\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>Increasingly dedicated to research and lifestyles, the fair redefines the frontiers of childrenswear and focuses on scouting and the new worlds of the kids\u2019 universe.\u00a0 With big names and special projects at the Fortezza<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

548 <\/strong>collections (versus 498 at the previous summer edition), 327<\/strong> of which from abroad<\/strong> (55% of the total<\/strong>), and over 5,600 buyers, making a total of over 10,000 visitors <\/strong>at the last summer edition: these are the figures for Pitti Immagine Bimbo<\/strong>. Scheduled to be held from 22 to 24 June 2017<\/strong> at the Fortezza da Basso in Florence, Pitti Bimbo is the most important international fair dedicated to children\u2019s fashion and lifestyles, an extraordinary platform for trends, business and communication. Sensitive to recording the latest market demands, Pitti Bimbo focuses on research and across-the-board proposals, building its itinerary thorough different worlds that are both autonomous and synergic: an increasingly complete panorama created for the best concept stores in the world. From the atelier luxury of the collections in Apartment<\/em> to the mixture of research and experimentation of KidzFIZZ<\/em>,<\/strong> alongside the two new exhibition projects launched by the fair: Fancy Room,<\/em> with its lifestyle brands characterized by a pop design spirit and The Nest,<\/em> with its selection of small independent and \u201cup-and-coming\u201d brands from all over the world. Plus, the new Pitti Bimbo Editorials<\/em> which will astound, as usual, with their experimental, curious and special objects – a rich source of ideas and inspiration. \u00a0All this next to the big brands and most prestigious kidswear companies, from the names that have made ecology their distinctive feature (Ecoethic)<\/em> to the ever-expanding microcosms such as the sportswear of Sport Generation<\/em> and the myriad street inflections of SuperStreet.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Pitti Bimbo: an increasingly significant point of reference for the world of footwear <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

In recent seasons, the fair has also witnessed an important growth in the number of children\u2019s footwear brands which, alongside the brands that also feature shoes in their total look collections, have identified Pitti Bimbo as a key rendezvous, an unmissable platform for launching new collections and new projects onto the international scene.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
