Denim Première vision confirms the sector’s buoyant recovery with a hybrid, dynamic and inspiring event

In a positive, buoyant and business-oriented atmosphere, Denim Première Vision welcomed - both online and at the show - a visitorship comprised of designers, order writers and decision-makers, distinguished by their high-quality positioning: fashion and luxury brands, retailers, jeanswear pure players and web players.

Last week, after two years of Digital Denim Weeks, Denim Première Vision held its first hybrid event, which included:

• The return of a physical, eco-designed show at Superstudio Più in Milan, October 13 and 14 (organized in full compliance with existing health regulations).

• A Digital Denim Week from October 11 to 15 on the www.premierevision.com website which brought together a program of digital events and the Première Vision Marketplace offer.

After several seasons marked by constraints, the joy in reuniting, the thirst for inspiration and the need to share ideas with key partners to build the new spring-summer 23 collections all helped the hybrid Denim Première Vision show bring together some 3,750 visitors, 57% of whom were Italian and 43% of whom were international, primarily European (from France, the UK, Spain) as well as Turkish and American.
