MADAME FIGARO : Le grand couturier, décédé ce 4 septembre à l’âge de 91 ans, a entretenu une relation passionnelle avec Sergio Galeotti, architecte mort du sida en 1985, qui a eu un rôle clé dans sa carrière.

C’est son unique et grand amour et le seul avec lequel il s’est affiché publiquement. Lorsque Giorgio Armani voit Sergio Galeotti pour la première fois en 1966, près de la Capannina, en Versilia, où il est en vacances pour deux jours, c’est le coup de foudre. Le créateur, très pudique sur sa vie privée confie, bien des années plus tard, à Paris Match : «J’ai eu quatre grands amours dans ma vie, une femme, Sergio… Je n’ai pas eu le temps de vivre beaucoup d’autres relations amoureuses. J’ai trop travaillé», refusant d’en dire plus. (« Il n’est pas à vous, mais à moi », disait-il). » | Par Augustin Bougro | samedi 6 septembre 2025

Exclusif : la dernière interview de Giorgio Armani à Madame Figaro

MADAME FIGARO : Le couturier légendaire, disparu ce 4 septembre, à 91 ans, s’apprêtait à célébrer les 50 ans de son empire. Nous publions ici sa dernière interview accordée à notre magazine, le 31 juillet dernier.

Couturier parmi les plus visionnaires et inimitables de notre époque, Giorgio Armani allait célébrer cet automne ses 50 ans de carrière. Un demi-siècle de création dédié à l’allure et à l’élégance. À 91 ans, il appartenait à une espèce en voie d’extinction : celle des créateurs-bâtisseurs - resté totalement indépendants en cinquante ans de règne. Même s’il avait annoncé prendre sa retraite d’ici à deux ou trois ans, il continuait de créer. «Faire de la mode n’a rien de divin ou de sensationnel, disait-il. C’est élaborer une idée cohérente de la beauté et la partager avec son public.»

Pour célébrer les 50 ans de son empire, le styliste avait lancé Armani/Archivio lors de la récente Mostra de Venise : une plateforme digitale rassemblant cinq décennies d’archives, entre collections, photographies et documents *. Un autre temps fort attendu, auquel il devait assister, l’exposition, dès le 24 septembre, de 150 de ses pièces iconiques à la prestigieuse Pinacothèque de Brera, à Milan, au milieu de chefs-d’œuvre classiques. Enfin, un défilé événement en clôture de la Fashion Week de Milan, est prévu le 28 septembre. Il sera hélas une célébration posthume. Nous publions ici la dernière interview de Monsieur Armani accordée à cette occasion, le 31 juillet, à Madame Figaro. » | Par Paola Genone | vendredi 5 septembre 2025

Giorgio Armani Dies at 91—and Leaves Behind a Spectacular International Property Portfolio

REALTOR.COM: Famed fashion designer Giorgio Armani has died at the age of 91, less than three months after he was reported to have been suffering from an unspecified health condition that prevented him from attending his Milan Men's Fashion Week show for the very first time.

Armani's passing in his hometown of Milan, Italy, was announced in a statement shared by his eponymous company, which revealed that the style icon was "surrounded by his loved ones" when he died.

"Il Signor Armani, as he was always respectfully and admiringly called by employees and collaborators, passed away peacefully, surrounded by his loved ones," a translation of the statement, which was written in Italian, reads.

It went on to note that the brand founder worked "tirelessly" until his "last days," while praising his "vision that expanded from fashion to every aspect of life."

The statement also paid tribute to Armani's enduring love of Milan, where his brand was headquartered and where he himself had spent much of his life, having moved there after serving in the military after studying at university for two years. » | Charlie Lankston | Thursday, September 4, 2025

Giorgio Armani, le dernier empereur de la mode italienne, est mort

LE FIGARO : DISPARITION - L’Italie vient de perdre, avec Giorgio Armani, un génie de l’esthétique qui révolutionna l’allure de ses contemporains. Ce travailleur obstiné, parti de rien, est mort, à 91 ans, laissant derrière lui un empire de mode et une immense fortune. Une veillée ouverte à tous se tiendra ces samedi et dimanche au Teatro, son fief de Milan.

En toute discrétion. Sa vie, sa créativité, sa disparition. Jusqu’à la fin de ses jours, Giorgio Armani a entretenu la distance essentielle à une existence superflue. Une manière de se protéger et de prendre part aux bonheurs du quotidien, des plus simples aux plus luxueux, des plus futiles aux plus profonds, des plus solitaires aux plus mondains. Le créateur, né le 11 juillet 1934 à Plaisance, dans le nord de l’Italie, s’est éteint. Il laisse derrière lui des pièces culte d’un dressing qui se conjugue au masculin-féminin. Avec un style minimaliste et sophistiqué à la fois, tout en fluidité et nuances. » | Par Sokha Keo | jeudi 4 septembre 2025

Some of Italy’s best-known business leaders, including the fashion designer Giorgio Armani and the Prada chair, Patrizio Bertelli, have been targeted by an artificial intelligence-based scam that involved the mimicking of the defence minister’s voice in telephone calls claiming to seek help to free Italian journalists kidnapped in the Middle East.

Prosecutors in Milan have received four legal complaints, including from Massimo Moratti, the former owner of Inter Milan, and a member of the Beretta family, the world’s oldest producer of firearms. The defence minister, Guido Crosetto, on Monday said he would submit a legal complaint after his voice was cloned and used in at least one of the calls. » | Angela Giuffrida in Rome | Monday, February 10, 2025

Giorgio Armani Men's Collection – Spring-Summer 2024

Jun 20, 2023 | Weaving a story. The Giorgio Armani Men’s SS24 Collection represents a new storyline composed of familiar elements, but narrated from different angles to weave a new story. Forms are soft and lengthened, intertwining threads either explicit or evoked in prints that imitate knots, weaves with a summery feel and geometry multiplied for rhythm. The body is never overtly exposed but the energy that animates the lightweight volumes is palpable. Intertwining notes of blue, sand and natural tones provide the chromatic completion to this particularly light and fresh collection, which includes shoes and sandals similarly characterised by knots and weaves. It's a story in which everything comes together.
