The 94th edition of Pitti Immagine Filati (Florence, Fortezza da Basso, Jan. 24-26, 2024) ends with a turnout of 3,000 buyers – including about 1,170 from abroad, 3 percent more than last January.
The show presented yarn collections for the 2025 spring-summer season designed and produced by the best Italian and international spinning mills, with a total of 115 exhibitors. In the ranking of international attendance, France, Great Britain, Germany, Turkey, Switzerland, the United States, Spain, mainland China, Japan and the Netherlands were at the top.

The first international project, which brings the three most promising talents to Italy for an immersive internship at the Tuscan companies Tamerice and Sapaf, has been successfully completed.
Data from the Confindustria Fashion Accessories Study Centre for Assopellettieri show negative figures for the third quarter of 2025 as well, albeit with a slight improvement compared to the beginning of the year, which will hopefully turn into a recovery in 2026.
