After humble beginnings first as a medical student, then as a soldier, Piacenza native Giorgio Armani started out in fashion as a window dresser for the famous La Rinascente department store. After designing for the luxury Cerruti brand in the mid-60s, he founded Giorgio Armani S.p.A in Milan in 1975, the beginnings of a sprawling fashion empire world-renowned for its classic design and craftsmanship.

Giorgio Armani's philosophy is 'less is more', an ethos which is clearly reflected in his collections. Innovation is paired with consistency to create a style of utmost refinement and unmistakable quality. This eyewear collection is recognisable through its clean and defined shapes which complement the looks of the wearer assuredly, yet without imposition.
