STYLE Edit: Why Ermenegildo Zegna’s exhibition showcases a pile of rags among gorgeous artworks
Italian fashion house Zegna’s symbiotic code of ethics, business and aesthetics manifests in the installation Metamorfosi, which offers insights into ‘leaving a legacy for our fathers’
The large-scale installation Metamorfosi is three metres high and uses rags and used clothes divided by a double-sided mirror.
The philanthropic activities of the Zegna family are as praiseworthy as their fashion collections. The Zegna family – and the Italian luxury fashion house under its name – have preserved the Zegna legacy for over four generations in high fashion and social consciousness. This goes back to founder Ermenegildo Zegna’s symbiotic code of “ethics, business and aesthetics”.
