Giorgio Armani SS22: A Colorful Métissage
Samar Maatouk
14-January-2022

After more than twenty years, Giorgio Armani comes back at presenting the SS22 Women’s collection at Via Borgonuovo 21, in the historic theatre that has been the backdrop for some memorable fashion shows. The collection represents a métissage of exquisitely Armanian tropes mixed with nomadic scents, decorations and colours that seem to have been gathered during a journey or a trip to be reinterpreted with an urban feel.
The collection opens in blue and white with lively touches of red: soft and elongated jackets, some with knotted closures; trousers as wide as skirts, or with tapered volumes; little tops, and tunics. Movement becomes impalpable in the sequence of pale and airy greys, soft blues and greens for pure jackets, flowing trousers and long floaty skirts. Colours explodes in a gypsy juxtaposition of reds and purples, and plays of spontaneous layerings. Two accents recur, creating continuity: knotted scarves or crocheted caps covering the head, and the flat shoes, open on the toe or laced around the foot. Accessories add a note of bold, streamlined design: handbags with rounded shapes, or small bags with curved handles, and then large totes and crocheted shoulder bags. Finally, luminous, weightless evening gowns that barely skim the body, made of layers of tulle, create a feast of light with melting, surprising, infinitely soft nuances of colour.
