So let's start at the beginning. Pitti Uomo is a men's fashion show that takes place twice a year in Florence, Italy. Fashion brands from all over the world present what their customers and clients can expect in the upcoming season. But why is everyone paying so much attention to it?
Pitti Uomo is much more than just an exhibition. It is an indescribable theater of fashion and culture, supported by the best-dressed gentlemen in the world. Twice a year, the bowels of an almost six-century-old fortress are transformed into an arena where you can see the pinnacle of Italian style.
Gentlemen, get inspired.
And that's why watching Pitti Uomo is a must for every stylish man. Everywhere you look during Pitti, inspiration is pouring in in the form of stylish Italians, Japanese and Spanish. Pitti Uomo is the pinnacle of men's street style photography. It's also an event that even aces like photographer Scott Schuman don't miss. Through the event, we all have the opportunity to observe the best dressed men and their tricks for the perfect outfit. Gentlemen like Lucca Rubinacci or Lino Leluzzi never disappoint at Pitti, and each of us can capture that mysterious Italian touch of casual elegance with a little observation. Here are a few tips straight from Pitti that you can implement into your wardrobe today.A summer full of contrasts
It's summer, so why not give space to floral shirts? As you can see, a bold shirt doesn't always have to be a completely casual look. White trousers will perfectly complement the summer Lago di Garda style, which will be further enhanced by elegant shoes and a belt.
Blue and white – white and blue
When you think of an Italian fashionista, everyone thinks of bold patterns and colors that will dazzle everyone around them. However, the hit of this year's Pitti Uomo was simple variations of white and navy blue. The bolder ones complemented the simple, pure colors without patterns with sneakers with white soles, which add the true Italian je ne sais quoi to even elegant outfits.
Jacket as part of the uniform? Forget it
Many of us consider a jacket to be an elegant piece of clothing. But why not do something different with it? Make it the center of attention, whether you choose a bold pattern or color, it is an interesting and well-fitting jacket that makes Italian style something unique.
Make friends with flax
You often see nothing striking on well-dressed Italians, just a simple shirt or suit, and yet they look like they are from another world. The key is light materials. Italians love linen and cotton, which are not only comfortable, but also fit perfectly on the body. So don't be afraid of these materials. Don't be afraid of wrinkles either, they give them their uniqueness.
