Première Vision Paris brought together key players creatively and responsibly in the industry for three days, from February 11 to 13, 2025, around the theme of know-how, now placed at the heart of the February editions of PV Paris. The event confirms Première Vision’s major role in supporting the transformation of the sector globally, regardless of market segment, from mass distribution to luxury.
In a context of profound market transformation, Première Vision Paris is returning to its historical agenda with two complementary and distinct editions: Savoir-faire in February and Innovation&Tech in September. The trade show will expand this new offering with a forward-looking fashion space open to beauty. Première Vision has bold new ambitions for its international events, right in the heart of the world’s fashion capital.
Florence Rousson, President of the Première Vision Management Board and General Manager of The Creative Pole: “This first year at the helm of GL events’ fashion division, recently renamed ‘The Creative Pole,’ has given me the opportunity to meet and listen to all key players in our industry—upstream and downstream, from manufacturers to federation and brands. Première Vision is deeply committed to supporting the growth objectives of global fashion businesses by offering a highly curated, selective European and international platform, while personalizing each visitor’s experience as much as possible. This edition, marked by an outstanding attendance, also welcomed numerous international delegations—Ministers, Embassy Representatives, and Professional Federations… We were also honored to host the annual plenary session of the Comité Stratégique de Filière Mode et Luxe Français (French Fashion & Luxury Industry Strategic Committee), where over a hundred industry professionals gathered to discuss the future of our sector. With this momentum, we are already preparing for the next edition and look forward to welcoming the industry from September 16 to 18, 2025, to explore the latest innovations.”
The show continues to develop its initiatives to support the growth challenges of all market players.
