Alessandro Sartori, who only left his previous post at Berluti on Monday, has been confirmed as the new Artistic Director at Zegna. “I’ve known Alessandro and his style for many years and I am extremely excited to welcome him back to our group,” Gildo Zegna remarked in a statement on the appointment, “His talent, creativity, passion and modernity make him the perfect fit to help us take Zegna to the next phase of its development.”
Sartori expressed both admiration and gratitude in the statement regarding his new position, “I want to thank Gildo and the whole Zegna family for this fantastic opportunity. I grew up watching and admiring their creations and their authentic and deep values and I am extremely excited to write with the whole Zegna team the next chapter. I cannot wait to enter in their fabulous archives and to meet their artisans to start working on the new collections.”
This news comes so swiftly on the heels of not only Sartori’s own departure on Monday, but also that of Ermenegildo Zegna Group’s former creative director Stefano Pilati on Wednesday. Sartori worked at Zegna for eight years prior to his four year stint at Berluti, where he brought a ready-to-wear business into existence, and has been welcomed back with apparent excitement from the group.
