Curator's Description
Curator's DescriptionDiscover the Ermenegildo Zegna Dark Blue 13milmil13 Micro Herringbone Suit, a study in understated precision cut from one of the house’s most revered fine wool fabrics. The deep blue tone is enriched by a subtle micro herringbone weave that adds texture without distracting from its formal intent. The jacket is tailored with notch lapels and horn buttons that lend a natural, tonal warmth, while a fully lined interior ensures a clean, structured drape. Cut in the Milano fit, it offers a sharp, contemporary silhouette that feels purposeful yet wearable.
The 13milmil13 fabric is crafted from ultra fine Merino wool measuring approximately 13 microns in diameter, placing it among the most refined suiting cloths available. Such fineness delivers an exceptionally smooth hand and a soft, fluid handle, while careful spinning and weaving preserve resilience and shape retention. The Milano fit complements this refinement with a modern, streamlined cut that is neat through the shoulders and gently shaped at the waist. Trousers finished with side adjusters maintain a clean waistband, and turn ups add weight and elegance to the leg line. The result is a suit that combines technical excellence with contemporary Italian polish. Discover the elaborated sartorial details below.

Sartorial Details
Full Canvas Construction
A sartorial jacket - or coat - needs an interlining that will help give it shape and mold it. Canvas gives the item a tailored and crafted look. In short, it breathes life into it. Purely technical, canvas is made from either horsehair, wool, mohair or camel hair. It could also be a mix of them all, with varying thickness and weight. The canvas is stitched to the jacket, often by hand, thus making the canvas pieces 'floating' in the middle of the inner and outer cloth. This gives the jacket added flexibility. The canvas runs from the upper parts, all the way down to the end of the jacket. After you wear your canvassed suit for a while, it will begin to take your shape and look incredibly natural.
Roped Shoulders
A roped shoulder - or sleeve - head describes the bumped shape or ridge of the sleeve’s attachment to the shoulder. The higher it is, the more imposing the shoulder line appears. This can often be found in iconic British tailoring.
Handmade Buttonhole
Handmade buttonholes are made using a chain of knotted loops called purl stitches that make them strong and visually distinctive. It takes about five seconds to sew a regular buttonhole with a machine – a single handmade buttonhole takes about 10 minutes to sew.
Two-Button Closure
The jacket has a two-button closure which keeps the profile neat.
Chest pocket - Rounded welt pocket
Also known as ‘barchetta’ Italian for ‘little boat’, it is so named because this pocket floats on the chest gently angled upward, just like the bow of a sailboat. These pockets echo the lively roll of a lapel that carries the spring of canvas and natural wool, unlike machine-made chest pockets that have a more stamped-out, rectangular shape and less life.
Darts
The tailors adds two darts - think of them as pinched seams - to ensure the jacket’s body achieves a slim silhouette. The process, called mezzo punto riprese, is done entirely by hand.
Horn Buttons
Horn buttons are prized for their quality. They are made with the finest genuine horn material, improving the appearance of the suit. And because they are so strong, you don't have to worry about them cracking or breaking.
Ticket Pocket
The ticket pocket, also known as change pocket, has an old British history. At first it wasn’t even used to store a ticket, as the name indicates today. It became useful before the huge popularity of the railroad, as it was placed on the jackets of equestrians who needed quick access to coins at toll points. Allowing gentlemen to keep their jackets buttoned, this exterior pocket held cash in an extremely convenient way. Ticket pockets were a staple on men’s sturdy country suits before they adapted into the urban suits men wore to commute on a daily basis.
the details of
the trousers
Flat Front
Flat-front trousers are a go-to for a modern, clean look. They became popular in the 1960s and 1970s when fashion started leaning towards simpler, more streamlined styles. Unlike pleated pants, flat fronts have no extra fabric at the waist, giving them a sleek appearance that's perfect for a slimmer silhouette. They fit right into both casual and business casual settings, making them incredibly versatile. As a result, they are a favorite for anyone looking to maintain a contemporary vibe in their wardrobe.
Side Adjusters
Side adjusters are a stylish alternative to belts, offering a clean look without the need for additional accessories. These adjusters are typically small buckles or tabs located on each side of the waistband, allowing you to tighten or loosen the trousers for a perfect fit. Popular in bespoke tailoring and high-end menswear, side adjusters provide a sleek and polished appearance. They are particularly favored in formal and semi-formal settings, as they maintain the silhouette of the trousers without the bulk of a belt.
Turn-Up (Cuffed) Hem
The turn-up hem, or cuffed hem, is a classic style where the fabric at the bottom of the trousers is folded outward to create a visible cuff. This style originated with Edward VII in the late 19th century, who had his trousers tailored with cuffs to prevent them from getting muddy, sparking a trend among the fashionable elite. In the 1920s and 1930s, turn-ups became a symbol of wealth and sophistication, as having extra fabric was seen as a luxury. This association continued after World War II when wearing turn-ups subtly indicated affluence in an era of fabric rationing. Today, turn-up hems are a nod to their historical roots, offering a touch of classic elegance and enhancing the overall appearance of formal and tailored trousers.
