Elegance doesn't age: ARMANI turns 85 ! 🇮🇹🎂Italian star designer @giorgioarmani has built an empire that goes well beyond the world of fashion. His styles are minimalistic and timeless. Mr.Armani turns 85 ‪on July 11.‬ Stylish suits are Giorgio Armani's trademark. Ever since his first collection in 1974, he's used clean lines and classic colors to create his elegant yet comfortable suits. The designer has always been considered a perfectionist. 📌The Italian couturier, born in northern Italian town of Piacenza in 1934, had wanted to become a doctor, but dropped out of medical school and had other plans. After working as a window dresser in a Milan department store, and later a menswear department sales assistant, the untrained designer went on to enliven the fashion world with a timeless elegance that placed him in the upper echelons of great 20th century designers. The press likes to call the fashion designer "King George," with The New York Times in 2009 noting that "as the president, chief executive and sole shareholder of the multibillion-dollar company he founded in 1975, Armani is the wealthiest fashion designer on the planet." 📌As Armani celebrates his 85th birthday ‪the fashion world is wondering who will follow in his footsteps. Speaking on Italian television last year, Armani mentioned his nephews and nieces as possible heirs. But in an interview with the Financial Times just two years ago, Armani made it clear he wasn't planning on leaving the business. "My life is my work," he said. #fashiongram #fashionaddict #fashionista #fashionname #fashionblogger #fashionawards #stylegram #style #armanitribute #armani85 #giorgioarmani #Mr.Armani
