The reset of categories is an ongoing process at Zegna. Over the past few seasons the slate has been cleaned for a restart that now takes the form of a New Set: an evolutional, fluid code to enter the world again by keeping the connotations of tailoring in both methodology and construction while devising new forms in new fabrications, tuned to the needs of today. The mindset upon which this movement is founded pushes crafting awareness forward to build a new language with new designs and new silhouettes.
Exploring the possibilities of both thoughtful tailoring and innovative fabric-making, Artistic Director Alessandro Sartori draws up the New Set as a scale of possibilities for the individual to adopt and adapt. Fluid volumes and streamlined shapes allow for a new dialogue between clothing, body and gestures. The sense of properness that is a corollary of formality is translated into a harmonious, yet unpredictable use of colors and textures, and a gently non-formal look.
