from the so called "ready made" or "remake" and "outlets" categories which differ from the rigorous and authentic vintage selection.The items on show will be prevalently referred to the Fall/Winter season due to the fact that fashion operators are right now starting their research aimed at finding inspirations and themes in order to design and project their next Winter collections.Vintage Workshop (r) is promoted and supported by the cultural No-profit Association "connecting-managers"
which is the largest free association active in marketing,
communication and events organizing with its over 6500 associates.A consistent number of Companies which identify fashion operators as their core-business, have decided to support the show by offering at no coast their services or products as significant
