What is Zanetti 1965?

Zanetti 1965 is the main brand of Zanetti Moda, a family business based in Grumolo delle Abbadesse in the province of Vicenza. The company is known above all for women's shirts, a specialisation it has maintained for decades.

History

The company began in 1965 as a small artisan workshop founded by Luisa Vettori, who handled the skilled handwork, and her husband Giuseppe Zanetti, who took care of the commercial side. Their children Serenella and Stefano later joined the business, bringing innovation and flexibility. The Zanetti 1965 brand itself was launched in 2012.

Products and positioning

While shirts remain the core, the brand offers a complete look aimed at women who value design, fabric quality and wearability:

  • Shirts, blouses and tops
  • Dresses, trousers and denim
  • Knitwear
  • Jackets, blazers and light outerwear

Supporting lines include Easy Shirt and the Elements basics, and there is also a men's shirt line in slim and regular fits.

Distribution

Zanetti 1965 sells to trade customers through a dedicated B2B area, has an online shop run with a partner company, and has built sales outside Italy.

Why it matters

The brand shows how a specialised Italian family manufacturer can grow a product niche into a full collection while keeping its original category focus.
