Zara launches exclusive collection designed by Stefano Pilati

Spanish Fashion retailer has released an exclusive collection of ready-to-wear and accessories designed by celebrated Italian Designer Stefano Pilati.

Drawing inspiration from Pilati's own distinct sense of style as both an individual and a designer, this debut eponymous capsule expounds and expands his aesthetic signatures that has defined his work throughout his career. Translating his singular expression of chic across a multitude of categories, it is an expression of freedom, combined with the universal ethos at the heart of Zara's approach to fashion.

Encompassing womenswear and menswear, such as peacoats, wardrobe pieces, outerwear, soft and feminine blouses and dresses, and striped button-up shirts with ruffle detailing there are also accessories such as handbags, sculptural jewelry, and sumptuous suede loafers.


The collection is brought to life with a campaign photographed in New York by Steven Meisel, featuring Pilati himself alongside supermodel Gisele Bundchen.

'The scope of Zara was to celebrate my style and work. Still, I won't design something I wouldn't wear or see people wearing. It's a variable that ethically influences my design and cooperates with my integrity as a designer and professional. I am a symbolist infusing my creations with a language that wants to appeal, seduce, and ultimately send a message with a symbolic value detectable in the clothes. The interpretation of it is not my priority when I design. I am happy when someone makes my clothes theirs,' Pilati said in a statement.

Priced between 18 USD and 399 USD. the Stefano Pilati x Zara collection is available now globally. Check out the stunning campaign portraits here.
