PRET A PORTER PARIS, The heart of fashion, increases the number of visitors.
44 236 visitors (total figures rather than all fairs added together) representing an increase of 6% against September 2007 (41 437).
The common Fashion Pass was a notable success, making visiting the different fairs easier and creating a more convivial spirit.

THE FAIR OF REFERENCE
- Official inaugurations by Monsieur Hervé Novelli, French Secretary of State for commerce, crafts, small and medium-sized businesses, tourism and services; by Monsieur Bertrand Delanoé, the Mayor of Paris, with Madame Lyne Cohen-Solal, the Deputy to the Mayor of Paris, in charge of business, arts, crafts and independent professions, and by Monsieur Christian Sautter, Deputy to the Mayor, in charge of employment, economic development and international attractiveness.

STRATEGY & FAIRS 2009
PRÊT À PORTER PARIS from 30th January 2009 to 2nd February 2009 at Paris Expo, Porte de Versailles (Paris).
Concerning the 2nd semester of 2009, the presence of an important women’s fashion event has been confirmed for July, despite the desisting of Who’s Next, reversing of the common decision announced on the 15th January 2008. The pavilions of the Porte de Versailles will thus remain available. Given the proximity of these two dates, a very interesting debate has already started between the organisation and exhibitors to ensure that this new strategy is a success.
