After three years of vibrant events in New York, London, Paris, and Los Angeles, Vogue World is finally heading to Italy. Vogue Italia announced today that the fifth edition of this global fashion celebration will take place in Milan on September 22, 2026.
The date is no coincidence. Vogue World: Milano will kick off Milan Fashion Week with a clear purpose: to honor Italian creativity, fashion as both culture and industry, and the human touch in a tech-driven era.
Anna Wintour, Chief Content Officer of Condé Nast and Global Editorial Director of Vogue, notes, “Milan has always balanced craft and creativity beautifully. It’s a city that makes the handmade feel modern and the modern feel timeless. Hosting Vogue World here will be our grandest tribute yet to fashion’s human element.” Wintour and the Vogue team expressed gratitude to Milan’s Mayor Giuseppe Sala, Deputy Mayor for Culture Tommaso Sacchi, and the Camera Nazionale della Moda Italiana for their support.
Mayor Sala stated, “Milan is honored to welcome Vogue World in 2026. I thank the entire Vogue family, especially Anna Wintour, for choosing our city for such a significant occasion.” He added, “Creativity, innovation, sustainability, and tailoring are the foundations of Made in Italy. Vogue World: Milano, with its expertise and vision, will help showcase these qualities worldwide.”
The event will be held in the city center, highlighting Milan’s unique ability to reinvent itself on a global stage where fashion, art, culture, and entertainment merge.
Since its launch, each Vogue World edition has celebrated its host city’s culture and identity, redefining the fashion show format while supporting meaningful causes. To date, the event has raised over $7 million for charities that foster creative and educational communities globally. In 2026, it will continue this mission by backing initiatives that preserve Milan’s craftsmanship, creativity, and cultural heritage, with a local committee selecting beneficiary organizations.
Vogue World began in New York in 2022 as a lively street fair that revitalized fashion week post-pandemic. The following year in London, it featured a theatrical evening supporting the performing arts. In Paris in 2024, it honored a century of fashion and sport, and just weeks ago in Hollywood, it explored the dynamic relationship between fashion and film.
When Milan hosts in 2026, it will bring its unique flair. Francesca Ragazzi, Head of Editorial Content at Vogue Italia, says, “We’re thrilled that Milan will host Vogue World in 2026. This event is a special chance to share the timeless story of Made in Italy—a tale of genius and craftsmanship—with the world. Doing so in this age of artificial intelligence makes it even more meaningful.”
