Brand intelligence
Ermenegildo Zegna
ZEGNA is an Italian luxury house whose origins lie in the wool mill Ermenegildo Zegna established in Trivero in 1910. Its development connects textile production, menswear, tailoring, accessories and a long-term relationship with the Oasi Zegna landscape. The house is the namesake brand within Zegna Group, which also controls Thom Browne and TOM FORD FASHION. Alessandro Sartori returned in 2016 as artistic director after an earlier Z Zegna tenure and leadership of Berluti. Zegna Group reports ZEGNA segment measures as well as consolidated results; figures are attached to the exact disclosed segment or legal entity and are not automatically treated as retail revenue of the single house.
