“His ‘less but better’ is already in line with the new time.” For this reason, he concluded, the degree is “not a retrospective celebration, but a step in a creative voyage from which we still expect much.”Īrmani’s trajectory and successes were traced during the event, which was attended by university students, and the designer in his speech recalled the early days of the company, its foundation with Sergio Galeotti and how “destiny tested me in a hard way,” following the death of his partner, in order to make sure the company would survive. In this sense you can speak of classicism” of Armani.Īnelli cited the open letter Armani wrote to WWD during the pandemic “with acute sense of responsibility,” and the designer’s pragmatism. He underscored that Armani’s “classic lines and the quality of the materials reflect a product conceived to live on with ease beyond of a collection,” praising the designer’s “sensibility and promptness in naturally interpreting attitude, roles and functions of the contemporary man and woman. Franco Anelli described the Giorgio Armani company as “important, enormously successful, undoubtedly unique because it synthesizes aesthetic refinement, originality, vision and manufacturing ability,” realizing what Pope Francis once said, “the harmony of three intelligences: of the mind, the heart and the hands.”
The motivations for the degree, offered by the faculty of economy and law, included “the international dimension of the brand,” as well as Armani’s ”holistic approach to sustainability, inexhaustible pursuit of improvement, and awareness of the centrality of the enterprise in the creation of shared value.” He admitted it was also special because it was bestowed in his birth town of Piacenza, “a magic location filled with memories and that fascinated me so much as a child.” His roots, he remarked, will always be in Piacenza.
