The legendary Italian fashion designer Giorgio Armani has passed away

At the age of 92, one of the most influential designers of modern times, Giorgio Armani, has passed away, as reported by the AGI agency.

The future couturier was born in 1934 in the Italian city of Piacenza. Initially, he planned to start a career in medicine, but soon became fascinated by fashion and began working at the La Rinascente department store.

In 1975, Armani, together with Sergio Galeotti, founded his own fashion house, Giorgio Armani. The designer made a name for himself with elegant, relaxed-fit suits that became a symbol of a new style. His brand quickly became one of the world leaders in the fashion industry, later expanding to include lines of perfumes, accessories, and eventually a network of hotels and restaurants.

Armani gained particular fame through his collaboration with Hollywood: his costumes frequently appeared in iconic films and set a new standard in cinematic fashion.
