The Latest in Designer Musical Chairs: Stefano Pilati Lands at Zegna (Forum Buzz)

Mutterlein shared her thoughts on the new gig as well: “While not the most exciting appointment in terms of big high fashion glitz, it does seem like a really natural and practical pairing. I think Pilati already knows the Zegna and Agnona customers extremely well, and I think part of the issue was that he wrongly identified them as the YSL customer. It’s great to see him in a place where he can really let go and do HIM. And to that point, it’s great for him to be at a house with a heritage and not a legacy, he’s more open to interpretation, he can really indulge who he is without the discrepancies forming between his work and the house’s legacy. Very exciting!”

Let’s hope this means that most of the big name designers have ended up where they belong for a while. Our heads are spinning from following the intense (and exciting) game of Designer Musical Chairs over the last couple of years, and we’re getting kind of dizzy at this point.
