Milan Fashion Week: Giorgio Armani

Giorgio Armani took the audience at sea while presenting his Spring 2008 collection during the Milan Fashion Week. To a backing track of typical southern Italian songs and a hint of North African drumbeats, the pieces presented evoked the laid-back mood of Southern Italy. The majority of the models wore fine mesh nets over their hair while presenting sheer gowns and tunics with floral accents and fringes. Armani heavily relied on rock grey, marine blue and beige to design the bias-cut skirts and shirts. For evening, gowns remained long and glamorous while shoes were high and glittery. The designer’s Emporio Armani line will be presented on September 26th. During the show, Armani also launched his new screen touch mobile phone in partnership with Samsung.
