Throughout the festival, Maserati was based at its 230-square-metre Maserati Lounge at the entrance to the marina, where hospitality was be provided for journalists and VIPs. The Lounge also displayed two of the marque’s current models: the Levante, a powerful yet graceful SUV featuring Ermengildo Zegna silk upholstery, and the Quattroporte GranSport, the quintessence of the Italian sports sedan.

Officially unveiled to the public at the Frankfurt Motor Show, the beautiful chronographs perfectly encapsulate the commitment to elegance and excellence that unites the two brands. Ermenegildo Zegna, meanwhile, displayed its ZZ Capsule collection of high-quality nautical sportswear, popular with sailing devotees.
