Ermenegildo Zegna has hired Italian designer Stefano Pilati to rev up its core men’s line and runway show, plus re-invent and ignite its Agnona women’s wear franchise.
This confirms a report in today’s WWD that the former creative director of Yves Saint Laurent was headed to the Italian men’s wear powerhouse.
Zegna said Pilati would start on Jan. 1 as creative director of Agnona, and head of design at Ermenegildo Zegna, with responsibility for that brand’s fashion show as well as for the Ermenegildo Zegna Couture collection.
