Experience a special evening dedicated to Italian style, fine craftsmanship, and classic bar culture.

On April 9, 2026, we cordially invite you to Christian Weilert in Düsseldorf. In a stylish atmosphere, we will exclusively present the new collection from "Cloth by Ermenegildo Zegna" – one of the most important names in Italian luxury menswear.

Look forward to an evening full of inspiring conversations, distinctive drinks, and a curated group of guests with an appreciation for quality and style.

Our sponsoring partner

Count Camillo Negroni

A stylish evening deserves an equally distinctive accompaniment.

We are therefore delighted to welcome Conte Camillo Negroni as the official partner of our Negroni Night.

The drink celebrates the history of one of the world's most famous cocktails: at the beginning of the 20th century, Italian nobleman Conte Camillo is said to have asked for his Americano to be strengthened with gin in Florence – a moment that gave rise to the legendary Negroni.

Production takes place in La Valdôtaine, a small family-run mountain distillery in Italy's Aosta Valley. There, limited batches of handmade spirits are produced in traditional copper stills, inspired by Alpine nature and Italian distillation techniques.

These components are combined by Master Distiller Alessandro Francoli to create a precisely balanced composition—a Negroni that combines balance with boldness.

Guest of the evening

Cloth by Ermenegildo Zegna

A special highlight of the evening will be a visit from Paolo Russo, European Manager of Cloth by Ermenegildo Zegna.

As a long-standing expert in the international menswear and textile industry, Paolo Russo brings with him an extraordinary perspective on Italian fabric culture and modern tailoring. In his presentation, he offers exclusive insights into the philosophy of the House of Zegna as well as the fabric developments and designs for the coming season.

Cloth by Ermenegildo Zegna fabrics are created in the brand's historic wool mill in Trivero, Piedmont—a place where innovation, craftsmanship, and Italian textile tradition have come together at the highest level for over a century.

Look forward to an inspiring presentation, fascinating background information on the development of modern luxury fabrics, and the rare opportunity to talk directly with one of the industry's leading representatives.

Note: The presentation and discussions will be held in English.
