Zegna wears ‘cashmere oasis’ at Milan Fashion Week


Treated like fabrics, yarns are the stars of next winter

By Gioia Giudice – The cardigan looks like wool, but it’s cashmere. The suit of trousers, jacket and shirt looks like Casentino, but it’s cashmere again and even the rain jacket is made exclusively with the fabric.

An “Oasis of Cashmere” was used in approximately 70% of the Zegna collection for next winter in menswear and presented at Milan Fashion Week.

If for the spring-summer collection Zegna had chosen its favorite location in Trivero, in Piedmont, this time the group brought “the oasis” to the Milanese public and showed the guests of the fashion show the first step that leads to the part finished.

At the entrance to the exhibition, a room was reconstructed in which threads of fabric flew through the air. These wads are chosen by the brand’s artisans, then transformed into yarn, then into material and finally into the product. From this birth as a fabric, the creative director of the brand, Alessandro Sartori, has created a “modernized tailoring” for next winter.

A clean aesthetic, made up of a single model of trousers, wide and pleated, and many overlapping pieces to be combined as desired: the jacket-shirt closed with snap buttons, the jacket-jacket, a blazer with one and a half breasts without lapels worn with a 10-thread-count cashmere polo or sweater.

Above, a bomber jacket or a double-faced coat, also in cashmere. What wasn’t made with fabric, was made with recycled wool. All proposed in a symphony of colors ranging from initial grays to a series of yellow and orange tones. .
