Armani elegance

The Milan Fashion Week has just ended, which brought the proposals for next spring summer 2023 to the catwalk. The aesthetic is eclectic, with one eye on the consolidated codes of the past and the other on a hyper-technological future. But the Milan fashion shows also speak of a reassuring aesthetic where the keywords are elegance, everlasting beauty and rigor, above all thanks to the models designed by Armani.

King George underlines his thought thus: "The beautiful to look at makes you beautiful even inside", a statement that perhaps not everyone agrees, but which launches a message of consistency with respect to the canons dear to the maison, which uses the language of true Made in Italy made of refined beauty and simplicity, highly studied and never banal. The lines, as for some years now, are inspired by the East in a game of contaminations which the designer no longer seems to want to give up.

A golden thread follows almost every outfit, light, impalpable that refers to the desert and to a never brazen luxury. A linear style, perhaps a little softer and more comfortable than usual, always correct in proportions, to express balance and sophistication. The models show elongated, liquid silhouettes, with neutral and sandy hues but also with a thousand shades of blue, light blue and purple. Transparencies, mandalas, large silk satin necklaces, micro pochettes to match the dress, elegant low-to-the-ground shoes complete a reassuring and at the same time rigorous picture. Chic but without ostentation, Armani reaffirms his personal vision of consistency and elegance.
