The legendary Italian fashion designer Giorgio Armani has died, the company he founded said Thursday. He was 91.
“With infinite sorrow, the Armani Group announces the passing of its creator, founder, and tireless driving force: Giorgio Armani,” the fashion house said.
Here is a look at his life in pictures..
Armani “passed away peacefully, surrounded by his loved ones,” it added. “Tireless, he worked until his final days, dedicating himself to the company, its collections, and the diverse and ever-evolving projects both existing and in progress.”
Armani had been unwell for some time, and his canceled appearance at Milan’s Men’s Fashion Week in June was the first time in his career that he had missed one of his catwalk events. His last public appearance was on May 21.
