Zegna confirms design lead Pilati’s departure
Italian fashion house Ermenegildo Zegna has issued a notice confirming that its design lead, Stefano Pilati, is stepping down.
In a statement to the press, Zegna Group’s CEO Gildo Zegna thanked Stefano for his contributions and wished him well in future endeavours.
Pilati, formerly Creative Director at Yves Saint Laurent, joined the luxury menswear label in January 2013, assuming responsibility for both its ready-to-wear and couture collections.
He cited a wish to “focus on other projects that I had put aside in order to achieve our common goals with Zegna Couture,” as well as a conclusion that his own mission “had been fulfilled” as reasons behind the decision.
Earlier in the week, rumours suggested that the difference between Pilati’s couture-like designs and Zegna’s core customer needs may have motivated a parting of ways; a move to Parisian house Lanvin was said to be on the cards. — AFP-Relaxnews
