The Centennial year of Zegna is celebrated with a collection embodying the profound relationship
between Man and Nature, coupled with the appreciation for progress. A contemporary vision and
adventure to conquer the world, whose roots grew in severe valleys with snow-capped mountains and
heralded new challenges.
Colours are interpreted in biographical terms: shades of blue stand for the clear skies and ice-cold
mountain streams, green shades of pristine forests and grey shades of mountain stones.
Monochromatic colours as strong statements. This is about real men, gentlemen wearing flannel
reinterpreted with luxury yarns, or comfortable loden overcoats and jackets with ten pockets. A mix of
materials follows, including cashmere, beautiful ‘Cashco’ velvets, microfibres, sheepskin and
shearling coats.
Suits are designed to highlight the body shape. Jackets are constructed to make a man look
glamorous and trousers have stitched front-creases. A sporting and nonchalant look is created
through the mixing of different garments, like the new hybrid jackets, or fabrics combined with
precious tanned hides, ponchos, denims, renewed ‘Elements’ jackets, and elaborate natural-dye
cashmere sweaters from the exclusive ‘Oasi Cashmere’ concept. Tradition blended with innovation
and reaching the epitome of beauty with the ‘Duo’ fabrics with their typically stylish patterns coupled
with their super-lightweight and knit-and-fabric mix. The outcome is a collection of garments with a
naturally relaxed lived look through dye and delavé processes that make each piece unique.
A sophisticated elegance whose outcome is a seemingly informal look. Zegna’s long-celebrated
sartorial skills help a busy gentleman to be impeccably dressed without complications: shirts are often
replaced – evening included – by polo-necks with knit collars and cuffs to be worn with ‘Duo’ wooland-
silk ties.
For more formal occasions the Zegna man wears passepartout tuxedos in either blue or black flannel,
rich in sophisticated details as well as smashingly elegant duvet-filled jackets in silk grosgrain and fur
details.
As each conquest requires endurance and flexibility, the accessory of choice must be a super soft
hold all in deer-skin, as well as sturdy leather-and-fabric shoes with an unprecedented balance
between imposing shapes and lightweights. Accessories as always provide the absolute complete
touch.
