After London and New York, the benchmark show for manufacturers of leather, fabrics, synthetics, accessories and components for footwear and leather goods lands in Milan Feb. 25-27 with more than 1100 exhibitors.
February 2025
It will be the days of creativity, inspiration and a supply chain – that of fashion, luxury, design and manufacturers of leathers, fabrics, synthetics, accessories and components – confronting each other on style, the conjuncture and strategies to manage an economic moment that remains complex and undecipherable. After LINEAPELLE LONDON (Jan. 21) and LINEAPELLE NEW YORK (Jan. 29- 30), Lineapelle lands in Milan for edition number 105, hosting more than 1100 exhibitors and offering the usual, packed agenda of events. Watchword: My Head In The Clouds. Not an invitation to carelessness, but the title of the trends developed by the fair’s Fashion Committee for Spring-Summer 2026. A “way to recognize the positive qualities of an open and free mind, capable of going beyond limits.” Clouds “are the place of ReflAction, a crasi between the words Reflection and Action: they are the creative space, the privileged, safe place from which to observe our dizzying future.”
After the debut in February 2024, Lineapelle Interiors, an exhibition project that aims to highlight the innovative charge of tanneries and material manufacturers in the field of interior design, is back. Twenty installations will showcase never-before-seen creations resulting from the collaboration between 20 suppliers and 20 studios specializing in interior design.
New look also for the Lineapelle Designers Edition fashion shows: seven shows in three days that will bring a new idea of leather to the runway. Events that match the six daily presentations that will enliven Spazio Lineapelle, the showroom in Milan’s Piazza Tomasi di Lampedusa, from Feb. 25 to March 2.
Renewing its proposal for artisan involvement is In The Making, a leather goods workshop created by LINEAPELLE in collaboration with Giorgio Linea, where visitors – by reservation only – can try their hand at creating small fashion accessories, experiencing firsthand the sense and value of savoir-faire.
Like every year in February, the vitality of Friends For Leather, the art competition organized by UNIC – Italian Tanneries that involves more than 1,000 middle school students from Italian tanning districts, returns to LINEAPELLE. The theme of this edition is Circenses – Leather and Leather in Circus Games from Ancient Rome to Today.
With its 38th edition, the Indian International Leather Fair reached its maximum exhibition expansion (+20% over the previous edition) and the participation of almost 400 companies, confirming once again its status as a showcase for a sector of primary excellence for the country.
