Giorgio Armani is one of the prominent protagonists of the events in the city of Venice where the International Film Festival is underway until 9 September. The cult designer has chosen the iconic city as the location of his One Night Onlya fashion show with an exclusive party involving highly selected guests, including the Armani and Armani Beauty ambassadors and fans of the brand’s style

The event, which has taken place in various fashion capital cities since 2006 – from London to Dubai, to Rome, Paris, Tokyo – was scheduled in Venice during the film festival to underline the strong bond between Armani and the big screen. Armani is one of the brands most appreciated by the stars on the red carpet of the major events in the sector. Again this year Armani Beauty is one of the main sponsors of the Venice Film Festival

The collection, which is called Rondo Armaniano, is a dedication to the city of Venice, and is inspired by the colors of the waters of its canals and the traditional masks of the Carnival. With the event at the Arsenale, Armani ideally closes the circle

Ultra-feminine and playful, the collection reveals a side of the designer’s personality who, notoriously, is the spokesperson for a refined and often rigorous feminine style

Many dresses in this extremely original Armani Privé collection feature the rhombus motif that decorates the traditional costume of the characters from the commedia dell’arte. Even the maxi ruffled collar is inspired by the same sources

The dresses, richly embroidered with beads and sequins, reflect the light like the waterways of the city of Venice

Giorgio Armani poses with his models in the background. The designer was recently awarded with the Leone d’Oro, a special creation made in Murano glass. The recognition, presented by the mayor of Venice Brugnaro, is the lagoon city’s tribute to the extraordinary activity of the stylist who loves fashion but has always paid great attention to cinema (there are over two hundred films for which he has designed the costumes).

Giorgio Armani, who received thunderous applause from his audience, greeted the guests with enormous emotion. In the front row stands out the presence of Sophia Loren, a great admirer of the creative style

Many of the stars of our cinema came to Venice to pay homage to the cult stylist. Among these, Vittoria Puccini and Miriam Leone, both in Armani creations with soft shades. The second is in the fifth month of pregnancy and poses with her belly

As is known, Hollywood stars have deserted the Film Festival due to the strike in their category underway in the States
