John Turturro is getting down to business.

On Jan. 20, the Severance actor, 67, made what appeared to be his runway debut with Italian label Zegna during Milan Men’s Fashion Week.

Ditching his character Irving’s norm-core attire, Turturro’s rocked tailored pieces from Zegna’s fall/winter 2025 collection on the runway.

He wore a gray tweed coat with a shearling collar over two layered shirts, a black V-neck sweater and trousers. Black loafers completed the classic ensemble and took him across the grassy hill-like catwalk, which was a nod to the collection's fine wool designs.

Turturro and Zegna creative director Alessandro Sartori took WWD behind the scenes of the Hollywood star's fitting, during which Turturro praised the craftsmanship of the collared Zegna jacket he was wearing for the occasion. Sartori also shared that family and a close-knit community are the core of their DNA.

Elsewhere in the interview, Turturro spoke about what landed him on the runway. “People have many different sides to them and sometimes there’s certain sides you don't want anyone to see,” he said with a laugh, adding: “You learn more about yourself and the more you learn about yourself the easier it is to follow your own path.”

The Golden Globe nominee also told The New York Times that the fashion gig opened up a new door for him that he didn’t see coming in his sixties. “You would feel that at my age you don’t get new experiences,” he said. “This was a new experience for me.”
