Nothing says quality, design, and craftsmanship in the fashion world quite like a “Made in Italy” label, and the Italian Trade Association (ITA) is once again sponsoring scores of Italian brands — more than 81 in total — at COTERIE from February 24–26 at the Javits Center. ITA’s stateside initiatives support the discovery and success of Italian labels in the U.S. market, and this season, 16 brands are making their COTERIE debut. It was a busy 2025 for ITA, which sponsored COTERIE in February and September, the Chicago Collective menswear shows in January and August, as well as 25 “Made in Italy” brands at the Miami Cabana swimwear show in June. All that, plus a site refresh for its exclusive digital platform, EXTRAITASTYLE, featuring wholesale tools that make it easier for American retailers to discover myriad Italian brands online and browse 6,000 products. Last but not least, in May 2025, ITA hosted “Italy on Madison,” an immersive three-day showcase held in May at ITA’s historic Upper East Side brownstone, spanning design, beauty, fragrance, eyewear, fashion, and food and wine, which featured 90-plus Italian brands and welcomed more than 600 guests.
So, what does ITA have on tap at COTERIE this season? The organization will host retailers for special complimentary wintertime drinks and bites in its central lounge, which is ski chalet–themed as a nod to the Milan Cortina Winter Olympic Games. Plus, ITA is staging a photo shoot on-site for all its sponsored brands, with fashion editorial and runway models dressed in full designer looks curated by fashion stylists and lensed by acclaimed fashion photographer Samantha Rapp.
Without further ado, read on to get acquainted with these covetable Italian labels showing at COTERIE, thanks to ITA, that definitely deserve to be on your radar—and in your closet!
