In brief
At 90 years old, this marks the first time in over five decades that Armani won't attend his own shows, with his team still presenting the Spring-Summer 2026 collections on his behalf.
Armani, the legendary designer, has made a significant impact on the fashion world since founding his label in 1975. Known as 'Re Giorgio', he will follow the events from home while looking forward to future shows in Paris. His long-time collaborator Leo Dell'Orco will take center stage in his absence, marking a poignant moment in fashion history. Armani's legacy includes a diverse range of products and lines, from haute couture to luxury hotels, and his brand celebrates its 50th anniversary next month. As he turns 91 this summer, the fashion community stands by him, eagerly awaiting his anticipated return.
