ZEGNA X THE ELDER STATESMAN: A MUTUAL PASSION FOR CASHMERE
Oct 03, 2023
Two minds, one love - the Zegna x The Elder Statesman partnership channels the passion for cashmere shared by Alessandro Sartori, artistic director for the Italian luxury goods house, and Greg Chait, founder of the Los Angeles-based lifestyle label. With the mantra “crafted for tomorrow,” Oasi Cashmere, Zegna’s showcase dedicated to the expression of the world’s finest raw materials and to sustainability, now becomes a medium of collaboration, a facilitator for creative conversations. The first of these ongoing dialogues is with The Elder Statesman and focuses on a mutual devotion to craft, material excellence, master craftspeople, and bonding with nature. The result is a collection that reimagines classic designs with vibrant colors, unique patterns, rich textures, and relaxed cuts. Needless to say, cashmere is the fiber par excellence. “Oasi Cashmere is a platform to encounter new cultures and visions that are both progressive and responsible. For ZEGNA, working with like-minded partners like The Elder Statesman is a key part of Its commitment towards the traceability of natural fibers. For The Elder Statesman, this partnership is the first step in enriching its supply chain with the Zegna Group’s textile mastery and further elevating the work of its own artisans,” said Zegna and The Elder Statesman in a joint statement.
