More quotes by Giorgio Armani
War taught me that not everything is glamorous.
Giorgio Armani
There are always protests, whether you do something good or bad. Even if you do something beneficial, people say you do it because it's advertising.
Giorgio Armani
It is imperative to create luxury products that are also functional. My vision for fashion precludes frivolous, fantasy-only designs. That said, fashion does tend to move more quickly than interior design. One doesn't change their couch every season as one does their wardrobe.
Giorgio Armani
Emphasize comfort without compromise.
Giorgio Armani
Our wardrobe needs to be more versatile, and, above all, it needs to be comfortable.
Giorgio Armani
Through fashion I have shown my interpretation of the competitive spirit by dressing sportsmen and women, choosing to work with both those who are among the world's most renowned athletes and also those who are yet to achieve fame in the arena of sport.
Giorgio Armani
The secret is to remain true to your aesthetic vision, so that people can see that you really believe passionately in what you are doing. That way, they can relate to your style. At the same time, you experiment-you try new things.
Giorgio Armani
I love things that age well - things that don't date, that stand the test of time and that become living examples of the absolute best.
Giorgio Armani
Working with Cate Blanchett, on and off the screen, has always been a highlight for me. She embodies the perfect combination of consummate actor and world-class fashion icon.
Giorgio Armani
It would be very hard for me to do things somebody else's way.
Giorgio Armani
Being famous very often means sacrificing your privacy and that of others. You have to impose on those close to you a pace and lifestyle that might be a bigger sacrifice for others than it is for you.
Giorgio Armani
Sports will always be important in global culture, and so fashion, as a reflection of cultural trends, will always incorporate influences from sports.
Giorgio Armani
Accessories are important and becoming more and more important every day. They can completely change the look of an outfit, and women like the idea of having a wardrobe that's versatile. For instance, a strong piece of jewelry can make a simple outfit look elegant.
Giorgio Armani
Elegance is not catching somebody's eyes, it's staying in somebody's memory
Giorgio Armani
When I was younger, I never laughed. I was always sour. If I look at pictures of me from the past, I never see a smile. I think it came out of my insecurity. I had a lot of complexes.
Giorgio Armani
I sensed that women wanted to be a little different. My fluidity gave them a way of interpreting their bodies in a more personal, individual way.
Giorgio Armani
The interesting thing about basketball is that it is played recreationally all over the world in playgrounds where people shoot hoops. Perhaps it is because of this that the look of the game seems to have been able to cross over into streetwear more easily than that of some sports that are confined to more specialist arenas.
Giorgio Armani
I know that people who have been closely involved with my work for many years are terrified of having to answer to someone else, someone who is not me, and that it won't be me to help them in their problems. This is my real problem.
Giorgio Armani
I didn't have a happy childhood.
Giorgio Armani
Of course, the muscular build of athletes is always a challenge for a designer, but my clothing's softness and comfort, which are central aspects of my stylistic vision, allow it to adapt to various physical builds effortlessly.
