Pitti Immagine Uomo Presents Niccolò Pasqualetti as Guest Designer of Pitti Uomo 108
by Adriano Batista
This June, Pitti Uomo 108 turns its focus on fashion that values experimentation and a clear-eyed view of what comes next. The event’s Guest Designer, Niccolò Pasqualetti, embodies this spirit.
A finalist for the 2024 LVMH Prize, Pasqualetti has emerged as a defining presence in the new wave of designers. Though he presents his collections in Paris as part of the official Fashion Week calendar, his return to Florence for Pitti Uomo marks a significant moment, the debut of his menswear line in a special event-show.
Francesca Tacconi, Pitti Immagine’s Special Events Coordinator, speaks of his work with quiet admiration. Pasqualetti reshapes the familiar lines of Italian tailoring, weaving together contrasts (structure and fluidity, heritage and modernity) without losing the precision of craft. His pieces carry the weight of tradition but move with ease, grounded in the quiet authority of Italian making.
For Pasqualetti, the invitation holds personal meaning. “Pitti Uomo has always stood for discipline in creation and the deeper role of clothing,” he says. As someone raised near Florence, he sees this as a chance to reconnect with the place that shaped his perspective. His approach to menswear balances exactness with a sense of possibility, honoring its foundations while leaving room for evolution.
