Designer
On July 11, 1934, Giorgio Armani was born in a small town called Piacenza near Milan. As a teenager, Armani became enthusiastically obsessed with theater and movies while studying at a local public school. After that, in order to comply with the wishes of his family, he had to give up his hobby and was forced to enter the medical school of the University of Milan. However, he interrupted his medical school studies after two years due to bleeding.
Armani, a self-made and self-taught genius, is almost 70 years old, but he is still passionate about work, demanding and hands-on. He once said: "Work is my life, I have no leisure for others." Some people also say that when he and his fashion are together, he feels a little lonely. Fashion may be like air to Armani, without which he would suffocate.
Master of elegance
In Hollywood, Giorgio Armani is a designer obsessed with movie stars. Former US President Clinton and computer tycoon Bill Gates are also his customer. His photo appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, an honor previously reserved only for Dior in the fashion industry.
If you compile a list of the most outstanding fashion masters in the world, you should never miss Giorgio Armani. He is a charming legend in the international fashion world. His works are elegant and subtle, Elegant and simple, with exquisite workmanship, it represents the Italian fashion style. He has won more than 30 awards around the world in 14 years, including the famous "Cutty Sark", and he has won the Menswear Designer Award a record-breaking six times in a row. Due to Giorgio Armani's outstanding performance, the Giorgio Armani brand has transcended its own meaning in the hearts of the public and has become a symbol of career success and modern lifestyle.
Giorgio Armani was born in Italy in 1934. In order to fulfill his family's wish, he studied medicine for two years. At that time, he had no interest in fashion. Until 1957, he decided to drop out of school and joined the Larina Scandi department store as a buyer. Later, at the age of 27, Giorgio Armani switched to working for Cerruti, and later worked as a fashion design assistant for several companies as a part-timer, thus establishing his own rich and changeable style characteristics. In the mid-1970s, Giorgio Armani met his lover and partner Sergio Galeotti, thus creating a brand named after himself and it has been prospering ever since. Ultimately, Giorgio Armani became one of the most influential fashion masters of the 20th century.
Unlike other designers with a professional background, Giorgio Armani was completely unknown when he was 18 years old. If we look back at his previous works, we will even find it ridiculous. However, with the development of the times, Giorgio Armani is also gradually maturing. As far as his design styles are concerned, they are neither trendy nor traditional, but a good combination of the two. His perfumes rarely seem to be in line with fashion. The two words are related. In fact, every season, Giorgio Armani's design concept will have some modifications, completely ignoring the fashion changes that can affect a designer's design style, because he believes that the quality of the brand is more important than formal updates.
Giorgio Armani has always made fashion. In an era when gender is becoming more and more confusing, Giorgio Armani is one of the designers who breaks the boundaries between masculine and feminine and leads fashion towards unisex styles. Giorgio Armani studied medicine at university and served as an assistant medical officer during his military service, which determined that the analysis of rational attitudes and the concept of world equilibrium were the criteria for his design. Giorgio Armani's design creation is not based entirely on fantasy, but comes from observation. When he saw the elegant way of dressing of others on the street, he reorganized it in his own way and once again created his own elegant form that belongs to Giorgio Armani style. Many of the world's senior executives and Hollywood movie stars have taken a fancy to this self-creation style and become followers of Giorgio Armani.
For many years, Giorgio Armani has always appeared in a casual but meticulous personal image, with his gray hair neatly combed, wearing a navy cashmere cardigan, a simple T-shirt and khakis Cloth men's pants. He neither smokes nor drinks. It is said that his cutlery and cutlery are all wrapped in layers. He speaks neither English nor Italian, so he has been described by the media as a taciturn, shy and proud man.
Once Giorgio Armani does something, he is like a man possessed. "Work is my life," Armani once said, "I have no leisure for others." Entrepreneurial experience
In 1957, Armani entered Worked at La Rinascente, a famous Italian boutique department store chain. He worked as an assistant photographer in the department store for a while, and later entered the company's design office. During that time, he purchased high-quality products from India, Japan and the United States and introduced foreign cultures to Italian consumers through exhibitions, thus beginning his exposure to fashion.
In 1964, Armani, who had never received formal training, designed a men's clothing series for Nino Cerruti, the father of Italian fashion. Encouraged by his friend Sergio Galeotti, Armani became a freelance fashion designer and fashion consultant in 1970. In the Italian fashion industry, Armani began to rise to prominence. Between 1973 and 1974, he launched the bomber jacket at the Italian Fashion Show held in Whitehall, Florence Beati Palace, to great acclaim. This kind of jacket treated leather as an ordinary material. Fabric used.
In 1975, Armani and Galeotti founded their own company, Giorgio Armani Co., Ltd., and established the Armani trademark, and the "Giorgio Armani" brand was officially born. In July of that year, Armani launched a revolution in the fashion industry with the launch of a lineless and structureless men's jacket. His designs are relaxed and natural, and the beauty of the human body is vaguely highlighted under the seemingly casual tailoring. It not only abandoned the boring suits that tightened the male body in the 1960s, but also differed from the hippie style popular at that time. Three months later, Armani launched a loose women's jacket, using traditional men's fabrics, as simple and soft as the men's jacket, and revealing a bit of masculine majesty. Since then, Armani, like French fashion masters Paul Poiret and Coco Chanel, has made unprecedented and bold subversions of women's clothing styles, making Armani fashion the favorite of high-end professional women.
In 1980, the exquisitely tailored Armani "power suit" for men and women came out. The "power suit" became a symbol of the era of international economic prosperity. This design was inspired by Golden Age Hollywood and featured wide shoulders and large lapels. In 1980, Richard Gere appeared in a full Armani "power suit" in "American Gigolo". The film was a huge success and the Armani brand left a deep impression on many viewers.
Since then, Armani began long-term cooperation with film and television stars, and even designed a large number of theater and dance costumes. In 1982, Armani became the first fashion designer to appear on the cover of Time magazine since Christian Dior in the 1940s. He often invites Hollywood stars to wear his own brand clothes to attend the Oscars. A large number of celebrities such as Michelle Pfeiffer and Jodie Foster are his loyal customers. Brand
In the 1980s, Armani began to expand his sub-line brands. In addition to "Giio Armani", which represents high-end fashion, he also successively launched ready-to-wear brands for young people. Emporio Armani", women's clothing brand "Mani", casual wear "Armani Jeans" and lively children's clothing, etc. In addition, there are ski clothing, golf clothing series and so on. Formal clothing from the Giorgio Armani brand has white text on a black background, while clothing suitable for general occasions has black text on a white background. As for secondary brand clothing, the eagle is often used as a symbol.
The fabrics of Giorgio Armani brand clothing are quite expensive. In order to meet the public's demand for the brand, the fabrics used in the slightly cheaper sub-brand clothing are mostly the latest technology synthetic fibers, which are difficult for outsiders to imitate. Armani has always been a master at combining artistic creativity with commercial operations. His ready-to-wear profits are among the highest in the industry. Although he has developed a large number of new product lines, his brand has never dropped in price.
Today, Armani's business has spread to more than 100 countries and regions. In addition to clothing, its product categories also include ties, glasses, scarves, leather goods, shoes, fragrances, etc. These accessories are also the same as clothing. All emphasize exquisite texture and simple lines, revealing Armani's "casual elegance" characteristics
Armani's products are fashionable, noble, refined and neutral, fully demonstrating the simplicity, elegance and confidence of urbanites. Because of his unique personality, he is favored and sought after by world superstars such as Richard Gere, Warren Beatty and Sharon Stone. Armani leather goods inherit its excellent quality in clothing design, while integrating its own humanized and exquisite design style. Since the product was launched, it has been widely recognized by successful people and urban fashionistas.
The Armani leather goods series includes more than ten varieties of briefcases, men's and women's bags, handbags, wallets, travel bags, belts, etc. Its products will enable modern successful people and fashionable people who pursue high quality to appear superior to others no matter when and where they are, and at the same time bring unexpected surprises to those in demand. We look forward to sincere cooperation with our customers, achieving common development and establishing close cooperative relationships. Identification
The Giio Armani clothing series is divided into two main parts, and the color of the cloth label is the only way to distinguish the two series.
1. Giio Armani Boronuovo: Including men's and women's clothing, it is a more formal line, and the cloth label is "white text on a black background".
2. Giio Armani Collezioni: It also includes men's and women's clothing. It is suitable for general occasions and has a design line that is more acceptable to the general public. The cloth label is black on a white background. As for Giio Armani, many of its sub-brands are Emporio Armani men's and women's wear with the "eagle" as its logo. Style positioning
Armani series brands closely grasp the international trend and create aesthetically pleasing men's and women's clothing; at the same time, they are famous for their use of new fabrics and excellent production. Unlike most long-running fashion designers, looking back over Armani's 18 years in business, there are very few ridiculous or terribly dated designs. He is able to create an almost perfect and stunning balance between market demand and elegant fashion.
As far as design style is concerned, they are neither trendy nor traditional, but a good combination of the two. Their clothes rarely seem to have anything to do with fashion. In fact, in every season, they have some appropriate and understandable modifications, completely ignoring the fashion changes that are enough to affect a designer's design style, because designer Armani believes that the quality of clothing is more important than style updates.
His series of brands are positioned in soft, unstructured styles, playing with some layers and colors, and often adjusting proportions.
In fact, there is also fierce competition between two famous designers in Italy in the fashion industry. Versace was famous for his sexy clothes, consistent personal lifestyle and his unexpected death. Armani certainly wouldn't be designing Madonna's clothes (nor would it have customers like Mitchell Feifei and Jodie Foster). But his Zen philosophy and neutral style can be seen as another side of Versace. And while Versace promoted a star-studded system for top models in the 1980s and early 1990s, Armani never hired big-name models in his shows.
This brand of clothing has a wide range of clothing functions, but elasticity and adaptability seem not to be valued. In fact, these garments feature luxurious, high-quality fabrics. Each piece of Armani's clothing is a high-quality product and has a wide range of matchability, which makes the combination of single products become another style feature of it. Although the clothes are expensive, they all have unique charm and are not overly exaggerated.
Giorgio Armani brand fabrics are quite expensive. In order to expand the customer base and satisfy the public's demand for designer brands, a series of slightly cheaper women's clothing such as Mani trademarks appeared. The fabrics are the latest technology synthetic fibers, which are difficult for outsiders to imitate.
In addition, the new brand Emporio Armani used on casual clothes and sweatshirts was also born. Women's styles include simple pannier-collar pullovers matched with skirts and hand-sewn trousers. When they are still in fashion, designers will make small changes in tailoring for novelty.
Brand style development in the 1970s
At the beginning of the brand's establishment, the first men's clothing series he launched won universal praise. Its coats were characterized by sloping shoulders, narrow collars, and
Large pockets. By the end of the 1970s, Armani widened the collar of men's suits and increased the looseness at the chest and waist, creating an innovative inverted trapezoid shape. After the chaos and unpredictability of "hippies" and "punks" in the 1960s and 1970s, people were tired of the bizarre ways of dressing up. At this time, Armani's elegant, simple, solemn and free clothing style was completely The Italian style just meets people's new fashion needs and is refreshing. 1980s
Achievements in women's clothing in the early 1980s. At that time, Saint Laurent-style women's clothing principles were popular in the clothing industry, mostly slim and narrow lines, but Armani boldly incorporated the characteristics of traditional men's suits into women's clothing. In the design, the body line was widened to create an epoch-making round-shouldered shape, coupled with unstructured sweatshirts and loose casual pants, bringing a relaxed and natural style to the fashion industry in the 1980s. Because this idea of ??men's clothing for women is similar to the spirit advocated by the designer Chanel who made an outstanding contribution to simplifying women's clothing in the 1920s, Armani is called the "Chanel of the 1980s." The improved broad-shouldered women's clothing was very popular among working women, and his exaggerated treatment of wide shoulders became the representative style of the entire 1980s. People called the 1980s "the era of Armani". 1990s
In the 1990s, Armani's creations became more mature. He believed that exaggeration and exaggeration were no longer the colonial trend, and even high-end evening wear should maintain a subtle and restrained beauty. Elegance, simplicity, the pursuit of high quality without showing off, "seemingly simple, but also containing infinite" are the spirits given to the brand by Armani, making him an important figure who influenced "minimalism without hesitation". His designs do not inspire people to have fairy-tale dreams. What he pursues is the affirmation and realization of self-worth. His clothes give women confidence and make people deeply feel their own importance. Men's clothing display
Armani admitted that his first batch of women's clothing actually used men's styles and women's sizes. I didn't expect that customers would be so disappointed
. The simple, rigorous and meticulous rules for men's clothing design and production laid a solid foundation for Armani's career, and also brought a rigorous, elegant and masculine style to the women's clothing he designed. The shoulders are made wide and soft, becoming his unique finishing touch. He never admits that his designs are neutral. He cleverly transplants men's clothing techniques, as if he has pushed a thousand pounds and easily opened a unique door that displays femininity. In fact, he was not the first to use this method. Coco Chanel had tried to transform men's clothing; his fellow Elsa Schiaparelli, who was popular in Paris in the 1930s, even tried to use men's shoulder pads on women's clothing for the first time, which was cited by "Harper's Market" magazine at the time. It is praised as "the most imaginative creation", but no designer has gone on this road as thoroughly as Giio Armani, and is as focused as he is.
He once said that his design follows three golden principles: first, remove anything unnecessary; second, focus on comfort; third, the most gorgeous things are actually the simplest. After the 1980s, although this is no longer the most fashionable, it will never go out of style. The reason is simple: he has always been a part of the trend that cannot be ignored.
Speaking of change, it is business development. Under the strategy of giving everyone the opportunity to wear clothing designed by Armani, various sub-brands were born, including children's clothing and furniture design. In 2011, Armani was even invited to design a Mercedes-Benz car!
It was learned at the press conference that Armani was preparing to get involved in interior design again. It is not just an ordinary living space, but the entire hotel should be designed generously. These new dimensions in design are truly amazing. Eternal perfume
