FLORENCE, 6-8 JULY 2010: PITTI FILATI


Design Watching will be the theme of this summer
edition of Pitti Filati: the world of fashion will be making a
curious – and indiscreet – foray into the world of design
through the ideas and visual-acoustic-verbal notes gathered by a
platoon of “design watchers”, the spearhead of Pitti People, the
international community of the Pitti Uomo buyers, journalists
and opinion leaders. They will choose, between tradition and
contemporaneity, their preferred design object and will be
coordinated by Cristina Morozzi. The settings, designed by
Patricia Urquiola will create an ideal continuity between the
outdoor and indoor areas of the fair, and will offer a new
concept for the lounge areas and special refreshment-food
points. It’s just one more and new proof of a clear calling and
the across-the-board nature of Pitti Immagine events that are the
ideal venue for launching new projects and presenting special
previews in the most important areas of contemporary fashion,
lifestyle and design.
Hotel Mario's is 3 minutes walking far from Fortezza da Basso.

PITTI W Florence, ex-Dogana Via Valfonda, June 15-18, 2010



A special platform to launch new products
previews and capsule collections

The sixth edition of Pitti W_Woman Precollection, the Pitti Immagine fair-event devoted to women’s collections will be held in Florence from 15 to 18 June 2010 concomitantly with Pitti Uomo 78. A selected group of about 60 international brands will present exclusive previews of their 2011 spring-summer collections in the Dogana on via Valfonda.

Pitti W has already made a name for itself as a strategic event, and it is chosen by exhibitors for preview launches, for capsule collections and for specific projects linked to new approaches to female elegance. In response to a need expressed by many buyers, this edition of the fair-event will focus even more on collections built around a selection of key items. The reason behind this is to generate greater impact in terms of sales and communications, by starting the game early when buyers’ budgets are still open. In parallel, the Pitti W offer is becoming broader – with more space in the sections dedicated to vintage items and fragrances – with a refreshed layout designed by Olivero Baldini and a new approach to how the space is used – everything is more open to enhance dialogue among the products.

At the Dogana, the third edition of Vintage for Pitti W
and the special area dedicated to artistic perfumery

After last season’s success, Pitti W will once again feature the “Vintage for Pitti W” area produced in cooperation with A.N.G.E.L.O. Vintage Palace and dedicated to…vintage, of course!.

The participating brands will include: Biehl, Calé Fragranze d’Autore, Histoires de Parfums, La Maison de la Vanille, Laboratorio Olfattivo, Profumi di Pantelleria and Solange.

PITTI IMMAGINE UOMO 78: 15th - 18th June 2010


Si chiama Design Watching il tema generale di Pitti
Uomo n. 78
. È un’incursione curiosa e indiscreta del mondo
della moda nel mondo del design attraverso le suggestioni e gli
appunti visivi / sonori / verbali raccolti da una pattuglia di
design watchers – buyer, giornalisti, curatori, designer e opinion
leader – individuati nella community internazionale dei Pitti
People. A questi è stato chiesto di individuare i loro nuovi
oggetti di design preferiti - tra spirito artigianale e
contemporaneità - con il coordinamento di Cristina Morozzi.
L’allestimento sarà curato da Patricia Urquiola, che creerà
un’ideale continuità tra layout degli spazi esterni e interni della
manifestazione, assieme anche a una nuova proposta di aree relax
e speciali installazioni dedicate al cibo, firmate con i prodotti di
Taste, la rassegna di Pitti Immagine dedicata alle nicchie di
qualità della gastronomia italiana. Una nuova testimonianza
della vocazione allo stile e al design e della trasversalità delle
manifestazioni Pitti, sempre più contenitori pensati per le nuove
tendenze del lifestyle oggi.
