I was never interested in Zegna, BUT you've made me want to go and have a look at it. I also never heard of Alessandro Sartori, but your reflection on how he was not that great at Berluti, but is excelling at Zegna is very interesting. In his defense, I'd say Berluti is not an easy brand to take on because each time a designer decided to add a twist to the brand, they exited quickly. I think it is the type of brand that should just have a creative team and no designer because, I believe, designers at storied brands are there to bring freshness while maintaining the ethos of the brand. I am saying this eventhough I feel we're entering an era where designers at the helm of big fashion houses won't have much to say.
Yes, have a look and let me know what you think! 😊 What you say about Berluti is true, I know my "issue-non issue" with Sartori's design there is definitely down to your reasoning, some brands have to stay the same forever because that's what their customers ask. As always, thank you for your very interesting comment, Emmanuelle and congrats on your 100 subscribers! Great work!!
ps: your collage at the end put a smile on my face
Haha! So glad!!
