Emporio Armani RTW Spring 2023
It's jacket season, and few people can make them so nicely and with so much of variety, as a Milanese maestro. Look around: there are jackets from brands such as Kiton, Massimo Alba, Brioni and Boglioli everywhere, for men and, more recently, for women as well.
Giorgio Armani made a name for himself with the men's slightly fitted and stripped jacket, and created women's clothing jackets for decades. This season, however, he's taken production to the next level, sending legions, in lightweight fabrics, whites, watercolor pastels and iridescent shades.
These jackets came with cutouts and a single knot tied in the back; with stretch or nipped-in waists; extra long or square and short; with lapels or guru collars - or no collar at all. Armani paired them with wide leg pants, harem pants, lightweight pant/skirt hybrids, or floor-length tulle strips in smoky gray or white.
While jackets stole this chic show, there was plenty more to see: tunics and vests overlaid with pants, shalwar kameez style; languorous pareos, and others, long skirts with dripping floral prints, like a painting by Monet.
An array of sparkly, boxy fringed tops closed the show, and as models walked down the catwalk , the tops looked like a series of small glowing pictures about to hang in the gallery. Small works of art and crafts, Armani style.
