Think of the name Giorgio Armani and what it conjures. Gray, austere, superefficient pantsuited tailoring for the professional woman would be one likely image. Well, scrub that. This evening, he delivered something wholly opposite: softness, sensitivity, delicacy, romance - a sustained tour de force of utterly lovely dresses. Was it referencing the thirties - a vision spun around the sort of soft-focus portraits of aristocratic debutantes Cecil Beaton might have photographed? "Maybe, roughly thirties," he (Armani) shrugged, backstage. "Perhaps that was the most beautiful time for portraying women. That's what I wanted; just to make women feel beautiful." - vogue.com
