Giorgio Armani, celebrated Italian fashion designer, dies at 91

"With infinite sorrow, the Armani Group announces the passing of its creator, founder and tireless driving force: Giorgio Armani," the fashion house said in a statement.

imageHis vast portfolio included the Giorgio Armani and Emporio Armani apparel lines alongside the haute couture label Armani Privé and an Armani Casa design and interiors line.

He was absent from his last three shows, held in June and July, owing to illness. He had been expected to attend the brand's 50th anniversary celebrations later this month, including a landmark exhibition at the Pinacoteca di Brera in Milan.

The founder and sole shareholder of Giorgio Armani SpA, Armani reportedly refused numerous offers to become part of one of the big four luxury fashion conglomerates. He described the independence of his brand as "an essential value".

His inaugural 1975 presentation pioneered the idea of soft power dressing, earning him the title "King of the Blazer". His proposition of fluid rather than structured suiting featuring longer-cut suit jackets, loosely pleated trousers and floor-sweeping belted coats formed an entirely new approach to dressing.

The swish seafront hotels and freshly planted palms on the promenade might tempt any unwary holidaymaker to book in for Mallorca's Calvià beach. But step out of the back door and the resort is still firmly Magaluf, as it is better known-boozed-up Britain in Spain, with cocktails by the pint.
