History

Forall Confezioni SpA was founded in 1980 as a company dedicated to the traditional menswear tailoring.

In the 80s, the company created Pal Zileri as the brand to firm its identity and position based on the Italian savoir-faire and artisanal knowledge. Pal Zileri evokes the name of "Palazzo Zileri" an ancient building in the historic centre of Vicenza. From the 80s to 90s, the company's expansion reached over 70 countries throughout Europe, America and Asia. Pal Zileri worked with some of Italian designer labels to produce and distribute their menswear lines.

In 2014, Mayhoola Group acquired the majority stake of the company, and later, in 2016 gained the full ownership. Starting from January 2018, Pal Zileri presents its new collection at Milan Fashion Week. It pursues its sartorial craftsmanship combined with a contemporary aesthetic.

Further marking this new course, in July 2018 Marco Sanavia was appointed as Chief Executive Officer of Forall Confezioni S.p.A, owner of Pal Zileri.

In November 2019, Pal Zileri's creative director Rocco Iannone stepped down from his role. [1]
