ERMENEGILDO ZEGNA From the fabric factory to the style factory – Milan

The Triennale di Milano is dedicating an exhibit to the famous textile industry in honour of the Centennial of Ermenegildo Zegna, retracing the milestones of this luxury Italian company known throughout the world.

The factory opened in the second half of the 19th century as a textile laboratory thanks to watchmaker Angelo Zegna. When he died, his son Ermenegildo took over the company and began to manufacture fabrics of the highest quality for men’s apparel, importing carefully selected raw materials from Australia and South Africa. Upon the death of Ermenegildo, his sons Angelo and Aldo Zegna took over the business and contributed greatly to the expansion of this luxury men’s trademark throughout the world. This exhibit is split up into four sections: The Mind, The Hand, The Style, The Environment and takes full advantage of a wealth of photographic material, documents, film clips and clothing collections from various historical periods.
The exhibit was designed by: Studio Antonio Citterio, Patricia Viel and Partners. The style section was designed by Maria Luisa Frisa.
