Milan, Italy – September 4, 2025 — The fashion world is in mourning today with the announcement of the passing of Giorgio Armani at the age of 91. He died peacefully at his home in Milan, surrounded by loved ones, leaving behind a legacy unparalleled in modern fashion .

A Master of Understated Elegance

Born on July 11, 1934, in Piacenza, Italy, Armani initially pursued medicine and even served in the Italian army before embracing fashion. After a stint as a window dresser and menswear buyer at La Rinascente in Milan, he joined Nino Cerruti as a designer in the 1960s .
In 1975, alongside his partner Sergio Galeotti, he founded Giorgio Armani S.p.A. in Milan and debuted his first ready-to-wear collection in 1976 .

Redefining Tailoring and the Power Suit

Armani revolutionized the structured suit, softening its silhouette, removing padding, and embracing an understated confidence that changed how men—and eventually women—wore power dressing .
His designs became synonymous with red carpet glamour, from movies like American Gigolo to countless award ceremonies. He brought elegance to the small screen and the runway alike .

The Architect of a Global Empire

Under his leadership, the Armani brand expanded beyond fashion into accessories, home furnishings, fragrances, hospitality, and more, growing into a multibillion-dollar empire . At the time of his death, Forbes estimated his personal fortune at over $12 billion .

A Work Ethic Until the End

Despite health issues that forced him to miss Milan Fashion Week in June—the first such absence in his career—Armani remained deeply involved in his work until his final days .
The Armani Group’s official statement reflected his unceasing dedication:

“With infinite sorrow, the Armani Group announces the passing of its creator, founder, and tireless driving force: Giorgio Armani… he passed away peacefully, surrounded by his loved ones… Tireless, he worked until his final days…” .

Legacy and What Comes Next

A funeral chamber will be open in Milan over the weekend, followed by a private ceremony on an unspecified date .
Although he had not publicly designated a successor, reports indicate his niece Silvana Armani (women’s design) and longtime collaborator Leo Dell’Orco (menswear) are poised to take on his creative mantle through a gradual succession plan, managed via a foundation .

Tributes are pouring in:

Donatella Versace mourned, “The world lost a giant today. He made history and will be remembered forever” .

Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni praised Armani’s elegance, creativity, and role in elevating Italian fashion globally .

Giorgio Armani’s Enduring Influence

From rigid structures to soft, timeless tailoring; from modest boutiques to a global lifestyle empire; from a young man intent on medicine to a creative visionary—Armani’s journey reshaped fashion forever.

Professionals across the industry remember him not only for his designs but also for his meticulous attention to detail, personal discipline, and his enduring belief in elegance over extravagance. His passing on September 4, 2025, marks the end of an era—the era of Re Giorgio, King Giorgio—whose influence will continue to define style for generations to come.
