September 04, Colombo (LNW): The world of fashion is mourning the loss of Giorgio Armani, the legendary Italian designer and billionaire brand visionary, who has died at the age of 91.

Armani, hailed as the very embodiment of Italian elegance, revolutionized tailoring by reimagining men’s and women’s suits for a modern era. His influence stretched far beyond the runway, shaping the very language of red-carpet style as we know it today.

What began as a fashion label grew into a global empire under his leadership, with Armani branching into beauty, fragrance, music, sport, and even luxury hotels. His company consistently generated more than £2 billion annually, cementing his place not just as a creative genius but also as one of fashion’s most formidable businessmen.

Tributes have poured in from across the fashion world. Donatella Versace honored him on Instagram, sharing a photo and writing: “The world lost a giant today, he made history and will be remembered forever.”

Giorgio Armani leaves behind a legacy of timeless elegance, innovation, and integrity that will continue to shape fashion for generations.
