Empty Pool Runway Shows

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Sunnei's SS21 Collection Made Its Runway Debut from an Empty Swimming Pool

— September 28, 2020 — Fashion
SUNNEI's SS21 collection made its runway debut from an empty swimming pool in Milan, representing yet another creative way to put on a socially distant fashion show. As consumers, we've always looked to the fashion world for next year's trends, making this year incredibly hard for designers, who heavily rely on in-person attendance at fashion shows.

While many brands opted to go virtual, SUNNEI flexed its creative muscle by heading to Milan to debut its line from an empty swimming pool. The exciting and socially distant event invited 100 people for the in-person crowd, and livestreammed the show for the rest of the world to see. As expected, this range included numerous looks that were gender fluid and minimalist.
