And the Upper Level is attracting the attention of sophisticated boutique buyers with its important representatives of the new classic with their exceptionally high-quality products, exclusive fabrics and workmanship. And in between, on the Ground Floor, in a free and open dialogue with the other “worlds” of Pitti Uomo. I PLAY Padiglione Cavaniglia More and more applications are coming from vendors wanting to show at I Play in the Cavaniglia Pavilion. The project is dedicated to the new sensitivity which is extending the boundaries of sportswear.
