When Fashion Meets Tennis
THE ZEGNA FAMILY always had a soft spot for tennis and its Spring/Summer 2019 collection reflects that passion. In keeping with the theme, the brand has appointed world No. 3 tennis player Alexander Zverev as its ambassador and blended the signature elements of the game with its fashion label. Z Zegna’s new capsule showcases some ultra- fine stretch nylons and maxi mesh fabrics with layered transparency for its deconstructed jackets, bombers, raincoats and tailored drawstring pants. Then there is the TECHMERINO Wash & Go wardrobe (one can wash and dry it quickly, hence the name) accompanied by sun visors, tennis cuffs and shoes. The stripe and logo inspired by the Zegna Archive also draw on court colours. Silhouettes are layered and light and make for the perfect sportswear, but many of these pieces can be easily worn off the court
