Following Dsquared2, I hitched a ride with Alex Ferrario over to Z Zegna at via Savona, 56/A. Andrew Weir cast, which saw Anders Hayward, Sung Jin Park (below), and the aforementioned Alex in the lineup. Since Paul Surridge started designing for the label, his smart collections have been a favorite of mine in the Milan calendar.
It was noticeable how Stefano Pilati’s arrival at Zegna has shifted gravity within the house. Over the previous two seasons it was Z Zegna that presented larger shows, whereas the Ermenegildo Zegna collections were staged in the intimate, luxe show space at Zegna headquarters on via Savona. It will be intriguing to see how these fraternal collections relate to one another in the coming seasons.
On Wednesday morning I downed quattro caffè doppio (that is eight shots of espresso, in case you were wondering) and filed my three remaining video dispatches from the gate at Malpensa. Fourteen videos, 83 Instagrams, and countless tweets, made for a not awful season. Until next January in Milan, then it is arrivederci!
