Born in Oasi Zegna: Take a colourful, quirky trip
This hefty volume chronicles the history of the Italian brand and its founder’s legacy
MAYBE it’s because it was a long time coming, but Zegna’s new book about its founder and his legacy is a seriously outsized one. Born in Oasi Zegna tips the scale at over 2 kg. Add the accompanying cardboard slipcase, and we’re looking at nearly 3 kg.
Still, this is an informative, fun read meant for both adults and children to enjoy.
Page after large page, beautifully captured images, quirky illustrations, historic documents and text introduce you to the ethos of Ermenegildo Zegna – the man who started producing superior wool fabric in 1910, which led to today’s Zegna brand of luxury Italian menswear.
