As its name suggests, Ermenegildo Zegna’s latest capsule collection is meant to be comfortable, effortless and functional. The Second Skin range comprises lightweight pieces that can be easily layered for cooler weather or worn on their own when the temperature rises. The stars of the travel-ready collection are jackets, with our favourite being a light wool-and-silk blend blouson with a varsity-style knit collar, and cuffs in a versatile blue-grey. The rest of the range includes smartly relaxed items such as polo shirts, shirts, trousers and denim, done in complementary colours such as off-white, teal, navy, brown and light grey.
