To mark 50 years of iconic style, Giorgio Armani is set to launch an interactive digital platform that will serve as a bridge between his fashion house’s past, present, and future. The plans, announced on the day Giorgio Armani was founded in Milan in 1975, will roll out during the Venice Film Festival.

The platform will preserve the brand’s legacy through a meticulous catalogue of Giorgio Armani collections, which will serve as a precursor to additional celebrations set for September. The fall plans, which coincide with Milan Fashion Week, will open with a curated showcase at the Pinacoteca di Brera featuring 150 archival Giorgio Armani looks.

The exhibition will follow the brand’s evolution over the last 50 years, culminating in a show that will close Milan Fashion Week at the historic Courtyard of Honor at Palazzo Brera. The show will feature the Giorgio Armani Spring/Summer 2026 Women’s Collection and select menswear looks as the fashion icon ushers in the next era.
