I found Pitti Bimbo well thought out with a wide selection of brands. Having the opportunity to meet brand representatives and other buyers face-to-face allowed me to understand how the pandemic has influenced design, how needs have changed, and the direction of new trends. I found the brands' offers very multifaceted. In general, I really liked the "locally made" approach of many companies and their focus on sustainability: one of the most vital features in children's collections. It was also very interesting to discover new objects and accessories, such as those from the Editorial dedicated to board games, especially now that children spend a lot of time at home.

I have been attending Pitti Bimbo for several years now, and as a buyer in the luxury kidswear sector, the fair is an unmissable appointment on my calendar. At this edition, the fair is smaller due to the situation we are experiencing, but the quality remains high. I was looking mainly for new experimental brands, and I found several exciting ones, especially collections of dresses, toys, and clothing for babies. The organization was as brilliant as ever.

I must say that the lower turnout of this edition, due to the reasons we all know, allowed me to see the fair more carefully. There is a strong presence of Made in Italy collections but also small emerging brands with which I congratulated, for the excellent research work done, especially with the mono products lines. Not taking part in this edition would have been like closing the doors of my shop, and instead, I chose to open them: I came to Pitti Bimbo determined and willing to be there, and I really appreciated the exhibitors that have expressed the same desire. I really liked the set-up and, above all, the careful attention paid to safety.

A edition focused on sustainability. The layout of Bimbo was correct: the two sections were clear and coherent. For me, the most important thing is to check the trends. In just one or two days, I can have a clear vision of the trends that matter, which helps me focus my buying. I also find the networking that we do relevant: we always return home with many interesting contacts and the different conversations with other buyers are useful to see other points of view on the industry. More and more brands are focusing on innovative materials and are very concerned with being respectful of the environment. I appreciated visiting the Sustainable Style area.
