Though absent, Giorgio Armani's vision still comes to life at Milan Fashion Week
Models present a creation from the Giorgio Armani Spring/Summer 2026 menswear collection during Milan Fashion Week. Photo: Reuters Giorgio Armani's menswear collection for the next warm weather season encoded the geography of summer in textures, geometrical designs and his signature relaxed silhouettes. The 90-year-old designer skipped the runway preview show closing Milan Fashion Week on Monday (June 23) to recover from an undisclosed condition, but his fashion house said he kept a hand in the designs and watched the runway show on livestream. It was the first time in his career that the designer was absent.

"He liked it,'' Dell'Orco told reporters after the show, adding that Armani was especially happy to see that he had sent male-female couples down the mostly menswear runway in matching looks, underlining their versatility. The collection was classic Giorgio Armani: roomy wide pleated trousers paired with a seemingly endless array of softly constructed jackets, from a double-breasted made casual with shawl collars to shirt-weight leather coats. Vests with a deep-V front substituted for shirts, for looks that transition from work to leisure. The collection found balance in the melding of textures – raw linen, woven leather, soft suede and flowing silk. From a distance, ensembles may have appeared monochromatic, but a closer look revealed a harmonious blending of seemingly mismatched geometrical patterns and textures, adding depth to the looks. There was a touch of the exotic in the shapes, like Nehru collar, tunics or a kimono jacket, reflecting Armani's love of travel, without overwhelming the mood. Read more: Step up, guys!
