Revolutionizing contemporary fashion, his work represents an elegant fusion of classic and deconstructed modern.</p></div></div></div></div>

<p data-start="141" data-end="453">"Looking back, I have to say that throughout my life there has always been one common thread: I have never overlooked even the smallest detail, and I have never released anything without first checking every tiny aspect. I have never said, 'Who cares?'&mdash;even when something seemed insignificant to most people."</p>
<p data-start="455" data-end="867">It was 2015, and during a chat in his Milan apartment, Giorgio Armani shared with me some of the principles that had guided him throughout his long career and, more importantly, throughout his life. King Giorgio turns 90 on July 11&mdash;nearly 50 of those years (with the brand&rsquo;s official anniversary next year) spent revolutionising contemporary style and building a global empire with a turnover of &euro;2.35 billion.</p>
<p data-start="869" data-end="1214">Leafing through the pages of <em data-start="898" data-end="910">L'OFFICIEL</em>, the bond between the magazine, founded more than a century ago, and the designer born in Piacenza&mdash;who has become a symbol of <em data-start="1037" data-end="1052">Made in Italy</em> worldwide&mdash;proves to be long and enduring. This relationship was highlighted by a cover from <em data-start="1145" data-end="1163">L'OFFICIEL Paris</em> dedicated to his first 25 years in the business.</p>
<p data-start="1216" data-end="1597">From that cover to today, Armani&rsquo;s journey has been marked by major milestones: his couture debut with the Armani Priv&eacute; collection, the opening of Armani Hotels, and the inauguration of the Armani/Silos museum space in Milan, which he gifted himself for his 40th anniversary, to name just a few. All part of a precise trajectory, faithful to the brand&rsquo;s founding aesthetic codes.</p>
<p data-start="1599" data-end="2010">"For me, loyalty is a fundamentally important value, whether in love or work... The things I care about passionately are long-lasting and deeply rooted: consistency has defined my entire life. This applies both professionally and creatively... I hate the contemporary idea of fashion where everything must change every six months. Instead, I&rsquo;m proud to have managed to make my aesthetic vision unforgettable."</p>
