ispo Sport has
continually influenced fashion over the past years, and fashion inspired by
sports with its emotions
has become part of our everyday life. ispovision is the first trade show for
sports-inspired fashion.
The Neue Messe München GmbH has created a business and communication platform designed in
line with the times for the Sportstyle segment and its suppliers with it, which
links the strengths
and advantages of a conventional trade fair with the emotions of a lifestyle
event. The focal point of
fashion at ispovision is on the transfer of inspiration from sport into
fashion.

house Akris stands for a new kind of luxury and modernity. With a special
sensitivity to a woman's
personality, self-confident and feminine. With clear lines and straightforward
language. Costly to
produce and artisanale. Unobtrusive and yet unmistakable in its expression. Akris
is directed at the
woman who understands fashion, not as a fleeting expression of the times, but
rather as the means to
defining her own personal style. She doesn’t let trends distract her, she
follows her own path.
