Appointment in January with Who’s Next & Première Classe
The two most renowned trade shows in the Old Continent for the ready-to-wear and accessories sectors will be held in Paris from January 22nd to 25th
Who’s Next and Première Classe have always provided a comprehensive and rational overview of what the ready-to-wear and accessories sectors can offer to both buyers and visitors. Twice a year, 50,000 visitors storm the two Parisian trade shows to discover the most innovative trends in the above mentioned market segments. The next edition of both shows will be held from January, Friday 22nd to Monday 25th at the Parc des Expositions, Porte de Versailles in Paris.
If Who’s Next will bring together all the French and international ready-to-wear collections, divided into five sections, i.e.Fame, Private, Trendy, Urban and Studio, Première Classe and its 900 participating exhibitors will present the accessories trends for next season. Rightly renowned for its high quality selection, Première Classe will offer high-end jewellery, footwear, leather goods and many accessory designers and brands, specially selected for creativity, originality and style.
Over the last 25 years, Made in Italy has occupied a front row seat at Première Classe: the next edition will feature about 150 designers, mainly active in the bags and leather goods segments, where 50% of designers are Italian, as well as in footwear, with 50% of exhibitors arriving from Italy. Italian style is indeed a key element on offer, suggested, among others, by Tosca Blu, Io Pelle, My Walit, Attilio Giusti Leombruni, Gianni Chiarini, Barleycorn, Angela Caputi Giuggiu, Gaynor, Tesi. Furthermore, the two trade shows during the next Autumn/Winter edition will lead visitors into a dream world by telling the stories of modern mythological characters that derive their characteristics and their features from the world of fashion. All thanks to the creativity of the photographer Robert Bartholot, who is able to perfectly recreate the artificial and the “unexplained” with his images.
