Ermenegildo Zegna Navy & Burgundy Wool-Silk Blend Milano Easy Jacket

Discover the Ermenegildo Zegna Navy and Burgundy Wool-Silk Blend Milano Easy Jacket. The cloth operates as an optical illusion that only reveals itself on close inspection. At any normal viewing distance the jacket reads as a single, deep aubergine, a colour with the kind of richness and ambiguity that makes it difficult to place immediately. The source of that reading is a bi-colour micro pattern woven from two entirely distinct threads, one navy and one burgundy, the two colours appearing at a scale so fine that the eye blends them before the pattern itself can be distinguished, the aubergine emerging from the combination rather than from any single dye. Examined directly the two threads separate and the construction becomes legible, the navy and the burgundy present as individual elements in the weave, the illusion dissolving only to make the cloth's design more interesting. Wool and silk in combination give the fabric a soft touch and a quiet surface luminosity, the silk's natural sheen working through the micro pattern to give the aubergine reading a depth that a matte cloth at the same apparent colour would not carry.

The Milano Easy is Zegna's softer interpretation of the house's Milano silhouette, the same Italian proportions and clean front delivered with a reduced internal structure that allows the wool and silk to drape from the shoulder with the naturalness the blend invites rather than the rigidity that a fully canvassed construction would impose. The jacket moves with the body rather than holding a shape against it, the ease of the construction matching the ease of the cloth. Notch lapels and a two-button closure give the front a clean proportion, flap pockets at the hips, the jacket half lined to allow the cloth to breathe freely through the lower body.

A jacket that reads as aubergine from across a room and reveals navy and burgundy up close is a cloth decision made with genuine intelligence.

Zegna was founded in 1910 in Trivero, Italy by a young entrepreneur called Ermenegildo - he was the youngest of Angelo Zegna’s 10 children. Angelo, a watchmaker by trade, had started weaving wool using four looms. From these humble beginnings, an 18-year-old Ermenegildo began using the looms creating quality fabrics that he described as “the most beautiful in the world”.
