Knitwear by Beatrice Brandini
A proposal inside the Pitti Filati Research Space
My journey inside Pitti Filati number 97 continues. The first data that emerged is that this edition saw over 3,300 visitors in the Fortezza, more than half of whom came from abroad.
What I was able to perceive by visiting the fair is a renewed enthusiasm and the awareness of finding, here at Pitti, innovative and creative yarns, excellences proposed by all 130 exhibiting companies.
Shima Seiki Italia
Shima Seiki Italia, collections that highlight the capabilities of Shima Seiki machinery. For some editions the designer Vittorio Branchizio has signed the Shima Seiki Italia collections, demonstrating his knowledge of the world of knitwear, both from a creative stylistic point of view and from a technical one.
CustomEasy
CustomEasy is the section designed to delve into the different aspects of customization, in which the different skills in the textile field are integrated. In addition to the textile machines and the preciousness of the washes applied to luxury knitwear, the section also hosts the other segments of the creative process – from embroidery to finishing and spinning, from cuts to design software. Always very interesting.

The XVI edition of Feel The Contest 2025, promoted by Feel The Yarn. A competition for students from fashion schools across Europe, who, through partnerships with exhibiting yarn companies, give vent to their imagination, creating knitwear outfits of incredible creativity and quality.
Igea, a yarn that was born in Prato way back in 1964, the year Manifattura Igea was founded. Today, 1,000,000 kg of yarn are produced every year. Innovation and sustainability, these are just two of the many keys to their success.

The next edition of Pitti Filati will be from 21 to 23 January 2026, certain to find myself here again with the same confidence and the same enthusiasm, hoping that some situations that have little to do with fashion, but that certainly influence its turnover, will be resolved, especially for humanity.
Good life to everyone!
