Italian fashion designer Stefano Pilati presented Ermenegildo Zegna Couture‘s Spring Summer 2016 menswear collection during Milano Fashion Week SS16 this past weekend.
“For the SS2016 Ermenegildo Zegna Couture collection Stefano Pilati juxtaposes the brand’s very own nature ofsartorial leadership and heritage in noble fibers with a refreshing expression of masculine identity.
The plethora of fabrics is the undisputed protagonist of the SS16 collection: from the exclusive trans seasonal Double Century Cashmere, super fine Lanificio Zegna wools, silks, a range of cottons to luxurious Japanese textiles.
The attitude is relaxed and sportified but with a delicate elegant summery allure, an accurate balance of fluidity, transparency andlightness : all elements dear to womenswear newly translated this season, to create a new code for a stylish masculine and contemporary personality.
The contrasting volumes reveal unconventional ways of silhouettes: flowing trousers, classics but subtly detailed, evident or hidden, in their constructionare paired with nonchalance either to oversized outerwear or elegantly tight fitted, single or double breasted jackets, studied for an innovative and extremely light way of tailoring; or with floating summer coats, multi pocketed gilets, bomber jackets and draped blousons, alongside shirts and overcoats that intersperse the vocabulary of men’s wardrobe icons.
Essential is also the wide range of accessories all made with eco sustainable metal-free leather, following the “mission” Zegna started last season introducing the Eco-leader campaign.
The colorful symphony of micro and macro Madras patterns play with shades of beautiful “non-whites”, as well as mid toned or dark toned looks framed by optical white and total black.
The blend of “new” and “classic”, perfectly embodied by the Broken Suit concept, is the intrinsic overall angle of Stefano Pilati’s design for Ermenegildo Zegna Couture and wisely reflects Zegna’s heritage and DNA through a distinctive and innovative timeless aesthetic.” – Press Release
