On September 19th, the collective Little Italy UK is taking over the Blue Marlin Ibiza in Shoreditch for a runway fashion show where three Italian emerging designers – Antonio D’Errico, Nico Di Donna, and Riccardo Longo – will present their collections “alongside selected showcase brands, blending style, luxury, and Italian excellence”.
The event – in coincidence with the London Fashion Week (18-22 September) – will feature “high-end Italian cuisine and an exclusive afterparty with top Italian DJs”, the cultural collective says, promising to “champion Italian excellence in London through high-impact events that blend tradition, innovation, and community”.
Litthe Italy Uk has already organized the “San Gennaro Festiva”l at King’s Cross with over 4,000 attendees and is proud to have the backing of “influential partners” such as the Italian Chamber of Commerce in the UK, Comites Londra, and Fairness Magazine, and the support of brands like Maserati H.R. Owen and Portofino Gin.
For the “Italian Fashion Experience” the space of Blue Marlin will be fully transformed, featuring a dedicated catwalk area, a curated Showcase zone for brand exhibitors, and a VIP afterparty lounge with live DJ sets. The aim is to attract “a carefully curated audience of high-profile guests from both the UK and Italy”.
