Fashion Link Milano is the new format that brings together the most important events dedicated to lifestyle and international fashion retail in a single strategic project, taking place at Fiera Milano (Rho) starting February 21.

Fashion Link Milano reinforces an already existing vision: highlighting the value of trade shows as a benchmark for the evolution of global fashion, promoting quality, fostering strategic connections, and creating a community where every encounter becomes a business and an inspirational opportunity.

The first temporal protagonists of the project are five key trade shows, all hosted at Fiera Milano Rho and accessible with a single admission ticket recognized at all entrances. From February 21 to 23, Milano Fashion & Jewels (the reference point for jewelry, fashion accessories, and everyday clothing), Sì Sposaitalia Collezioni (Italy’s leading event for bridal, wedding, and formalwear), and The One Milano (an international salon dedicated to outerwear and haute couture) will take place. From February 22 to 24, Micam Milano (the global leading event for fashion footwear, quality, innovation, and sustainability) and Mipel (an international event dedicated to leather goods and fashion accessories) will join.

Starting September 2026, Lineapelle (the international exhibition of leather, accessories, components, synthetics, fabrics, and models for footwear, leather goods, clothing, and furniture) and Simac Tanning Tech (an exhibition for machinery and technology in the footwear, leather goods, and tanning industries) will again run simultaneously. The first, a semi-annual event, took place from February 11 to 13, exceptionally advanced for logistical reasons due to the transformation of some Fiera Milano pavilions into Olympic venues, and was dedicated to the Spring/Summer 2027 collections. The second is annual and takes place in September. Lineapelle and Simac Tanning Tech will bring the total number of trade shows under Fashion Link Milano in 2026 to seven, giving the project an additional boost by linking downstream products with upstream supply chain insights and technology, a key driver for collection innovation today.

The five trade shows from February 21 will feature a total of 1,777 brands, 45% of which come from abroad. A significant presence of international buyers, profiled by the individual event organizers, is also expected. The most represented countries include Germany, Greece, Spain, China, Japan, South Korea, India, Turkey, UAE, South Africa, Canada, the USA, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, and Georgia.

Fashion Link Milano takes this a step further, presenting a fully integrated ecosystem capable of strategically connecting brands, buyers, and professionals through a coordinated experience that emphasizes the complementarity of different offerings, designed to suggest new combinations and style visions, facilitate cross-selling, and support increasingly advanced retail. The various trade shows have actively engaged not only specialized buyers but also lifestyle buyers from around the world, who select products based on both fashion trends and specific occasions and lifestyles, taking consumer preferences into account while reflecting the values, activities, and interests of their clients. Buyers will thus spot emerging trends, engage with international markets, discover artisanal excellence and cutting-edge technologies, and develop professional relationships in a dynamic, integrated environment, also thanks to cross-sector initiatives designed for ongoing engagement with global trends.
