Continue the journey inside Pitti Bimbo, the final data, at the end of the exhibition, show a slight recovery. More international buyers (mainly from Russia, Spain and the United Kingdom), but also Italians.

I prepared 4 Mood boards for what I expect to be some of the strongest trends for next season.

“NEW PARTY” Mood board by Beatrice Brandini

NEW PARTY. Desire to have fun, aggregation, clan and community, but in a positive and beautiful sense. The sequins are the master, but they are played down and used always with irony. As well as brocades, damasks, embroidery, pearls and beads. Very precious but never pretentious theme.

“NEW ROMANTIC” Mood board by Beatrice Brandini

NEW ROMANTIC. Bohemian romance. Flowers, playful animals, micro-textures a little retro. Dusty pastel palette. Knitted sweater, circus and almost theatrical embroidery, impalpable fabrics combined with woolly and raw fabrics.

“POP Street Sport” Mood board by Beatrice Brandini

POP Street Sport. The sports world revisited in a pop key and used daily. Sporty fogs, acidic colors and soft focus, important details like plasticized and maxi zip in contrast, lanyards, drawstrings, mesh inserts, etc. Many badges in a preppy key. For little girls oversize sweatshirts with leggings, one part of the body is emphasized with very large volumes. Homage to the rappers of the late 80s.

“TARTAN Retrò” Mood board by Beatrice Brandini

TARTAN Retrò. Check, tartan, Principe de Galles, herringbones. Taste English old style. Wool, angora, mohair, Shetland. Even the leaders refer to that world, mini Montgomery, Peacoat, Flight Jacket. Rustic skirts and trousers.

BON TON. This French brand is so cute that even though it offers “easy casual” collections it maintains the typical chic touch of the Alps.

I’M ISOLA MARRAS by Efisio Marras for The Power Puff Girls.

Bleu comme gris Paris. Another interesting French brand. Irony and bon ton. Beautiful fabrics and interesting details.

L.o.L. Surprise. From the creators of the Bratz, the L.O.L. surprise is a colored sphere that contains a mini doll to collect. Very fashionista, it is especially for this that, since its debut, she liked very much all girls.

Little Marc Jacobs. Beautiful showcase of the great Jacobs mini version.

BANWOOD. Very stylish these bikes for children (very admired even by adults), technological retro taste.

DREAM MOUNTAIN. One of the two large walls set up on the lower floor of the Central Pavilion. Special objects dedicated to the mountain this time.

VIVETTA. Delicious collection from little girls just like that for their mothers. Vintage and ironic, faithful to the company’s DNA.

VIVETTA

BILLIONAIRE. More than a collection, a philosophy of life. But this gritty little man at the end is “funny”.

BILLIONAIRE

MARCOBOLOGNA. A pleasant confirmation, for a child who one day wants to be a princess, and the other a rock star. Much attention to details, fabrics and patterns.

LOST IN SPACE. The other wall of the Central Pavilion dedicated to space.

LUCKYBODYSUNDAY. I fell in love with these soft puppets made with the finest wool. Perfect for children but also for the grown-ups who sometimes wish to return to childhood, embracing something soft. irresistible!

HATS over HEELS. Hats for really cute little ones. Warm, fun, “precious”. Suitable to complete and embellish any look.

Oh Baby! Another confirms this US brand that combines poetry, romance, but also irony and freedom. Boho chic little girls.

Oh Baby!
