The final figures confirm the impressions of the first two days of the exhibition. Lineapelle 105 concludes with 24.977 professional operators, including 18.833 buyers, marking a 7% increase compared to the September 2024 edition. “An excellent attendance,” states Lineapelle in an official release. “A very high level of creativity and innovation in product, style, and process. The overall outcome is highly positive.” Lineapelle, therefore, “proves once again to be the must-attend event for the luxury, fashion, and design supply chain, even (and especially) during an economic phase that still presents significant challenges.”
24.977 Professional Operators: buyer +7%
“24.977 professional operators,” continues Lineapelle, “were at the forefront, alongside over 1,100 exhibitors,” at an event characterized by “incredible creative and innovative dynamism. A vitality that offers potential reassurance despite the ongoing economic challenges. Tanneries, accessory manufacturers, component producers, textile suppliers, and synthetic material specialists showcased a deep design vision, presenting—across all product categories, from leather to soles—top-tier innovations and novelties that sparked strong interest among visitors. This edition highlighted a clear return to the most authentic and natural aspects of leather and materials.”
Creativity District
More than ever before, Lineapelle 105 “successfully engaged and involved his community through a series of projects organized within a dedicated Creativity District, located in Pavilion 24.” These events “garnered great enthusiasm and recognition, from the seven Lineapelle Designers Edition fashion shows to the 20 exclusive Lineapelle Interiors installations, from the In The Making artisanal workshops to the exhibition ‘Parole e Taffetà Chapter II: Animalia,’ dedicated to Anna Piaggi (curated by MinervaHub).”
See You in September
The next edition of Lineapelle will take place from September 23 to 25, 2025, showcasing trends for the Autumn-Winter 2026/2027 season. However, “due to preparations for the Milan-Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics, the event will change location within Fiera Milano Rho. Lineapelle 106 will be held in Pavilions 1-3, 2-4, and 5-7.”
