China represents an important opportunity for the fashion industry, as it makes up 33% of the global luxury sales. In this scenario also the Shanghai Fashion Week has grown over the last few years with over 160 events (fashion shows and presentations) 1500 exhibiting brands (designers and brands) and a turnout of 150.000 visitors. Furthermore, the number of multibrand stores and new stores is growing everywhere in China, from the North to the South. Market research has shown that the Chinese fashion system is seeking premium products, with features like craftsmanship, creativity and quality. The Italian businesses have important chances in China, though the country has turned out to be a more complex and insidious marketplace than expected. In order to support Italian small and medium-sized businesses in their internationalization path, Confartigianato Imprese with WHITEand with the support offered by ITA – Italian Trade Agency, are the promoters of a new platform, which is going to take to Shanghai a selected niche of Italian brands. This is not a fair-trade, but a format aiming to represent the best of the Italian lifestyle, thus becoming a touchstone event during Shanghai Fashion Week. The initiative was born under the aegis of Shanghai Fashion Week and benefits from the support by important local and international partners. The idea is to present a brand mix consisting of approximately 56 Made in Italy businesses within a multi-functional exhibiting area in the very heart of the new Art District (West Bund Art Center), right opposite Ontime, one of the most prominent fair-trades, partner of the project. Thanks to the important backing offered by local marketing agencies and PRs, the Italian brands will have the chance to meet not only the buyers and the press, but also distribution partners, agents and professionals, thus allowing them to develop a network and approach a multi-faceted market, like the Chinese fashion scene. The structure of the event foresees, during the three days, several communication and promotion activities, meetings and focus on Italian lifestyle with food tastings, so that the Chinese consumers can enjoy a full immersion experience in our culture and know-how. Among this project’s partners there are also Camera Italiana Buyer Moda – The Best Shops, which will show the Chinese buyers and retailers the style and curatorship of the best Italian multi-brand stores. More precisely, the platform will allow the involvement of several local fashion insiders, so as to aid the participants in their new market strategies; from starting partnership projects with fashion editors, which will back the opening event and the platform’s communication; the communication and promotion of Italian brands through presentations and live shooting during the three days of the event. Focus on the social media through the activation of local and international influencers and through an area dedicated to the editorial services produced by a team of creative talents in collaboration with WHITE Magazine’s editorial staff, the latter will launch a Chinese issue that will be distributed during Shanghai Fashion Week.
