The 106th edition of the twice-yearly men’s fashion trade fair Pitti Uomo has returned to Florence this June 11 to 14.
Trendsetters are welcomed to the Fortezza da Basso conference centre by a light but powerful Pitti Lemon setup by Angelo Ficus. International and Italian brands line the halls with their latest and forthcoming collections, while the dandy and daring hover by the pavilion to be captured by the global press.
Our eyes cannot help but feast on the fashion extravaganza that Pitti Uomo reliably brings to Florence beyond the trade fair site. While linen suits are de rigueur and the parties draw in the style conscious, certain events have caught our imagination. British designer Paul Smith has presented his Spring/Summer 2025 collection in the opulent halls of Polimoda’s Villa Favard, design school Accademia Italiana wowed with an immersive experience in the vast former nunnery Sant’Orsola and young artisans showed their craft at Schola Academy.
