Niccoló Pasqualetti is the Guest Designer of Pitti Uomo 108

This June, the 108th edition of Pitti Immagine Uomo will return to Florence’s iconic Fortezza da Basso from June 17 to 20, 2025, placing the spotlight on bold creativity and avant-garde fashion. This season’s theme embraces daring aesthetics and experimental design, showcasing a dynamic blend of eclectic styles and visionary thinking.

Among the standout highlights of the upcoming edition is the announcement of this season’s Guest Designer: Niccolò Pasqualetti. Hailing from Tuscany and already a 2024 LVMH Prize finalist, Pasqualetti is rapidly gaining international recognition as a powerful new voice in global fashion. Known for presenting his work on the official Paris Fashion Week calendar, he will now bring his distinctive, boundary-pushing approach to Florence.

During Pitti Uomo, Pasqualetti will unveil his latest menswear collection in a special runway event—his first-ever presentation at the fair—promising a memorable moment of innovation and artistic vision.

Niccolò Pasqualetti trained at Iuav in Venice, in Belgium, and at The Row in New York, before undertaking an M.A. in womenswear at Central Saint Martins in London, followed by a period working at Loewe in Paris. In 2021, the year he launched his eponymous brand, Niccolò Pasqualetti received the Franca Sozzani Award. He was also the recipient of the Camera Moda Fashion Trust award in both 2023 and 2024. In 2024, he was nominated as a finalist for the LVMH Prize. Pasqualetti is now based between Paris and his native Tuscany, where the collections are produced alongside local artisans.
