Ermenegildo Zegna Couture TOPSSS

The couture artery of the Ermenegildo Zegna universe finds the venerated Italian label at its most detail-oriented. Led by Alessandro Sartori, Ermenegildo Zegna Couture’s forward-facing menswear evades traceable reference points. The tailoring that comprises the label’s collections uses color, proportion, and texture as primary molding tools, devising challenging new approaches to menswear’s main staples. Inventive suiting, knits, and outerwear are given asymmetric twists, though an emphasis on form-flattering sleekness prevails. Layered vests and overshirts offer distinct interpretations of what it means to appear put-together, augmented by a color story that hovers in a tasteful blue-grey range. In its suggestion that innovation is a means of elevation, the levelled-up menswear presented by Ermenegildo Zegna Couture underscores the parent label’s status as a visionary in contemporary elegance.
