Intended to mark 50 years of the Armani brand, a Milan show has become a retrospective. Armani’s concept of dressing was “fluid rather than structured suiting”. Women in particular were liberated from “fussy and figure-hugging silhouettes”. The Armani look was one of “louche glamour”, achieved through “refined use of decoration, the preference for neutral and refined tones, and attention to workmanship”. Said he “I am neither a couturier nor a tailor, but I feel I am someone who creates a style”. Images are here and an obit here.
