Couture Corner: Ermenegildo Zegna’s way of pimpin’ a man in times of chilliness

There are many global fashion brands that do style a modern man to perfect effect and so without mentioning names do find themselves losing the plot when putting together a collection for the modern male figure.

With the Northern part of the equator enjoying the warm weather, we in the South are stuck in the chill of winter, which brings me to taking a little peak at Ermenegildo Zegna mens 2013 winter collection. This is a collection creative director Paul Surridge can boast about, his team stuck to the values of the Italian label that have brought great designs, which is evident in this collection.

The collection is dominated by outer-wear pieces with heat-seamed waterproof Mackintosh coats. This is a collection I feel resonates with a man of style and can make him stand out.
