The Passing of Giorgio Armani

The fashion world mourns Giorgio Armani, who has died at 91 (Piacenza July 11, 1934-Milan September 4, 2025). A visionary who redefined modern elegance, Armani transformed fashion with his minimalist tailoring, clean lines, and understated sophistication. From Hollywood red carpets to business power suits, his influence stretched far beyond the runway, shaping our global perception of style. As one of the last great independent designers, he built an empire that embodied discipline, freedom, and timelessness. Armani leaves a legacy that continues to inspire designers and creatives worldwide.
