An excellent turnout. A very high level of creativity and innovation of product, style and process: these are the results of the 105th edition of Lineapelle, the reference exhibition for the global luxury, fashion and design supply chain, which saw 24,977 professional operators – including 18,833 buyers, up 7% on the September 2024 edition – and over 1,100 exhibitors. Tanneries, manufacturers of accessories, components, fabrics and synthetics showcased a profound design vision, proposing novelties and innovations of the highest level that aroused concrete interest in visitors, highlighting a definite return to the truest and most natural aspects of leather and materials.
Similarly, the event was able to involve and stimulate its community through a series of projects – organised within a true District of Creativity in Pavilion 24: from the seven fashion shows of Lineapelle Designers Edition to the 20 unprecedented installations of Lineapelle Interiors; from the craft workshops of In The Making (organised in collaboration with Giorgio Linea) to the exhibition ‘Words and Taffeta Chapter II: Animalia’, dedicated to Anna Piaggi (curated by MinervaHub).
Appointment for the next edition dedicated to the AW 2026/2027 season, which will take place from 23 to 25 September 2025. The location at Fiera Milano Rho has changed, due to the preparation for the 2026 Winter Olympics in Cortina-Milan: LINEAPELLE 106, in fact, will be staged in halls 1-3, 2-4 and 5-7.
Over 22,000 industry professionals have confirmed the strategic importance of the trade fair and its international leadership, whilst attention is already turning to the next event, scheduled for 23 to 25 February 2027.
Last September’s edition saw an increase in the number of exhibitors, partly due to two new venues in the Tortona District. There was also a rise in the number of international (14 per cent) and Italian (10 per cent) buyers, bringing the total to 9,000 industry professionals.
Italian fashion returns to the forefront in Central Asia with 81 companies taking part in La Moda Italiana@Almaty, which took place from 30 September to 2 October in the Kazakh city.
