Emporio Armani Catwalk Fashion Show Milan SS2012

If anything the Emporio Armani show today was relaxed. The silhouette was loose, the fabrics were airy and the nonchalant male models walked in a chill mode (sunglasses on, hands in their pockets).

The fabrics moved with every step the models took. Those loose pants seemed ultra comfortable, several knitted sweaters looked weightless and some of the jackets appeared almost translucent.

With a colored palette ranging from off white and light grey to navy and black Armani’s silk and linen designs were the perfect example of casual elegance.

Dark denim and leather jackets with lots of zippers added some streetwise feeling. And the barefoot finale once more stressed the relaxed spirit of this collection. No sharp & sleek business looks here, but maybe Armani wants men to loosen up a bit. It sure looks very tempting.
