It would be easy, but very reductive to define LINEAPELLE as the most important international exhibition for the global fashion, luxury, and design supply chain.
Easy because obvious: the whole world of fashion manufacturing, twice a year, lands in Milan – in February and September – to reach the pavilions of Fiera Milano Rho and access the stands of the most advanced and stimulating manufacturers of leather, accessories, components, synthetic materials, fabrics, and models for the production of footwear, leather goods, clothing, furniture, and interior and outdoor design objects.
LINEAPELLE, however, is much more.
LINEAPELLE is a laboratory for the future which, in each edition, elaborates and presents the stylistic themes one season in advance of the finished product shows: in February for the following year’s summer collections and in September for the following winter.
Lineapelle has over time been able to build up a solid and recognised identity in an organic and design-oriented manner, coming to be regarded as the only exhibition in the world that operators can not miss.
Lineapelle is the only trade fair in the world capable of bringing together in the same place and at the same time an average of around 25,000 visitors and 1,200 exhibiting companies from all over the world, representing the reference point for a supply chain comprising 50,000 companies, 1 million employees and generating a turnover of $150 billion.
On the strength of its global leadership and futuristic vision, LINEAPELLE is a project in progress aimed at enhancing the Italian and global leather, luxury, and all its excellences.
Each edition is an evolving hub of contents that explores the creativity, the craftsmanship and the instinctive ability of all its exhibitors to imagine and build new innovative horizons in materials and accessories destined not only for the fashion and design of today but above all of tomorrow.
Fashion shows, special projects promoting Italian-made products, craft workshops, style seminars, technical training workshops, collaborations, networking, and much more.
The list of activities that LINEAPELLE organises at the fair, in order to enhance the excellence of its supply chain and offer a unique fair experience, is endless.
Lineapelle is an international exhibition network. In addition to a full agenda of worldwide networking activities, in january and july, it organises
Two niche events for the british and american markets.
Lineapelle london, at the design location of the ham yard hotel, is an eagerly awaited one-day event that welcomes a select number of exhibitors and presents a preview of the trends for the new season to an exclusive audience of designers and stakeholders.
Lineapelle new york, at the metropolitan pavilion in manhattan, offers its approximately 130 exhibitors the opportunity to explore and present themselves in a key market such as the united states.
