World-renowned Italian fashion designer and billionaire brand owner, Giorgio Armani, has passed away at the age of 91.
Widely regarded as the embodiment of Italian elegance, Armani transformed the global fashion industry by reimagining men’s and women’s suits for a modern audience.

In a statement shared on the brand’s official Instagram page, Armani was remembered as a tireless creative force. “He worked until his final days, dedicating himself to the company, the collections, and the many ongoing future projects,” the statement read, adding that he was “indefatigable to the end.”
