Aegylon Fashion Show

A fashion show overlooking the sea of Capraia

The Aegylon Fashion Show is a signature fashion event held in Capraia Isola, a small island municipality in the province of Livorno and one of the jewels of the Tuscan Archipelago National Park. The evening transforms Piazza Milano, in the heart of the village, into an open-air catwalk where creations come to life before residents and visitors in one of the most evocative settings of the Tuscan islands.

Aegylon: fashion born from the island

The name of the event recalls Aegylon, the ancient Greek name for the island of Capraia, and is linked to the boutique of the same name created by local artist Edilberta Deiana. More than just a shop, Aegylon is a style laboratory where production is entirely focused on signature design: the artist's original drawings become clothing collections, jewelry, and accessories, strongly inspired by the wild nature, sea, and fauna of the island, including the famous graphics dedicated to the squid, a gastronomic and cultural symbol of Capraia.

The atmosphere of the evening

The Aegylon Fashion Show is not just a commercial presentation, but a moment of celebration for the island community and those spending their summer on the island. The show takes place in the evening, when the temperature becomes milder and the village comes alive: an opportunity to discover the craftsmanship and creativity that characterize Capraia, far from mass tourism and immersed in a unique natural context in the Tuscan Archipelago.

Capraia, an island to be experienced

The event is part of a summer calendar full of initiatives organized by the Pro Loco of Capraia Isola, which during the warm season offers open-air concerts, book presentations, screenings under the stars, and traditional food festivals, first and foremost the famous Squid Festival. Participating in the Aegylon Fashion Show therefore means coming into contact with the authentic identity of an island that has made nature and creativity its distinctive hallmark.
