00:10Giorgio Armani, has died today at the age of 91.
00:14Dear viewers, if you like this news, please like it and share your comment.
00:19AFP reports from Rome that fellow Italian icon Donatello Versace said on Instagram,
00:24Today the world has lost a conqueror. He created history and will remain immortal.
00:31Armani was one of the most well-known designers of contemporary fashion.
00:35After opening his fashion house in Milan in 1975, he quickly reached the top of the industry and dressed Hollywood.
00:50His company announced that his private funeral will be held on Monday.
00:55However, a memorial chamber will be open in Milan on Saturday and Sunday, where well-wishers can pay their respects.
01:02The company did not state the cause of death, but Armani had missed some shows earlier in the year due to an unspecified health issue.
01:10A statement from the company said,
01:12The employees and collaborators who always respectfully called him I.L. Sr. Armani breathed his last peacefully, surrounded by loved ones.
01:22The statement added,
01:24Until his last day, he was a tireless worker and kept an eye on many ongoing and future projects.
01:30Hollywood stars also paid tribute.
01:33Julia Roberts said,
01:34U.S. actor Russell Crowe reminisced by sharing the story of buying his first Armani suit at the Confilm Festival in 1997.
01:53The fashion world has also lost one of its most recognizable faces.
01:57Bernard Arnault, head of the French luxury group LVMH, said Armani, brought global acceptance and quality to Italian elegance.
02:07He said,
02:08He created a unique style, made of light and shadow, and transformed it into an entrepreneurial adventure filled with success.
02:16The Italian fashion icon is credited with inventing red carpet fashion, but he also launched the lower-priced Emporio Armani line for the youth market and has open luxury hotels.
02:28However, despite being the tireless driving force of the company, Armani was forced to cancel a menswear show in Milan earlier in the year due to health reasons.
02:38He also missed the Paris Armani Pride show on his doctor's advice.
02:41In a statement given to AFP in July, he said,
02:46In 20 years of Armani Pride, this is the first time I am not in Paris.
02:51He added,
02:52My doctors have advised me to rest, even though I felt ready.
02:56He also said,
02:57I have been observing and approving every aspect of the show from a distance.
03:02His death comes just weeks before his renowned label was to celebrate its 50th anniversary at Milan Fashion Week.
03:09In an interview published last week, Armani told the Financial Times,
03:13I am planning to hand over my responsibilities to my closest ones, step by step.
03:20This includes his family and the entire staff, especially Leo Del Orco, who is the head of men's design for the Armani Group.
03:30Armani maintained strict control over creative production and told the newspaper Courier della Sera last year,
03:37I have no time for love except for deep affection for Leo Del Orco.
03:41He has been with me for many years and is the person closest to me.
03:46Visitors at the Armani slash Silos exhibition space in Milan said,
03:51The city has lost a part of its history.
03:54Emanuela Ottolina, 71, told AFP,
03:58What he has done is extraordinary.
04:00He poured his heart and soul into it.
04:02Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Maloney said Armani inspired the world and symbolized the best of Italy.
04:11Animal rights activists also expressed grief over his death.
04:15PETA noted that Armani's courageous decision to ban the use of fur has become an example for other brands to follow.
04:23An official quote from Armani's Instagram page was published,
04:26The legacy I want to leave behind is a sense of responsibility, respect, and a genuine care for people and reality.
04:35Indeed, this is where everything begins.
