What began as a small Stockholm-based project has since developed into an international fashion house. Renamed Acne Studios in 2006, the brand has built its identity around contrasts — bringing together Scandinavian simplicity with more rebellious, unexpected and playful elements.
For its 30th anniversary, Acne Studios is returning to where it all began. Denim takes center stage once again, this time through a collaboration with American photographer and activist Nan Goldin. Known for her intimate and unfiltered approach to portraiture, Goldin photographs members of the Acne Studios community wearing pieces drawn from the brand’s past and present.
The series brings together contemporary designs, archival garments and reworked versions of some of Acne Studios’ most recognisable denim pieces from the past three decades. Rather than presenting a single, polished image of the brand, the portraits focus on individuality and personal expression, reflecting the experimental, independent spirit that has shaped Acne Studios from the very beginning.


The campaign brings together a diverse group of artists, musicians, photographers, actors and models, including Ellie Rowsell, Guinevere Van Seenus, Jonathan Lyndon Chase, Jordan Hemingway, Juliette Lewis, Peter Schlesinger, Raya Martigny, Rila Fukushima and Sandra Poulson. Another member of the group will be introduced at a later date.
Many of those featured have worked with Acne Studios before, each contributing to the creative identity the brand has developed over the years. Their involvement reflects Jonny Johansson’s long-term approach to collaboration, relationships that can continue across multiple seasons and evolve over time.


At the centre of Su Misura are three ZEGNA signatures; Trofeo, the Abito #1, and the Falcon Jacket. Trofeo, made from Australian super-fine merino, has been part of the house since 1965, while The Abito #1 looks back to ZEGNA’s early history, taking inspiration from the suits worn by founder Ermenegildo Zegna in the 1930s. Made from 100% Australian wool, it is recognised as ZEGNA’s first suit.
The Falcon Jacket comes from a different part of the ZEGNA world. Inspired by the falcon and its ability to see beyond, the jacket takes its cues from Oasi Zegna, the vast natural territory in the Italian Alps that has long been connected to the values of the house. The result is an outerwear piece that brings together practicality and refinement.
