Italy pays tribute to Giorgio Armani, who died on September 4, and allows the public to learn about the origins of a style that will impact future generations. The designer's talent and inventiveness will be showcased in Parma from December 13 to February 8, 2026. The University of Parma and its Communications Study Center and Archive (CSAC) provide this complete tribute. The exhibition, titled "Giorgio Armani Archivio CSAC", features more than one hundred original works carefully curated from the over 8,000 items that constitute the Giorgio Armani Collection, which was personally donated by the designer to CSAC in the 1980s. Drawings, sketches, and design materials from the Center's Media-Fashion section make up an exceptional collection of documents that allow us to retrace one of the most iconic figures in Italian fashion history. The exhibition of authentic materials is supplemented by a selected journalistic review focusing on Armani's spectacular rise in the worldwide fashion scene and his early connections to Hollywood. The exhibition also showcases posters for two films that critically cemented the designer's prominence in the cinematic industry: Woody Allen's Annie Hall, in which Diane Keaton received an Oscar in 1978 while debuting an Armani suit, and Paul Schrader's American Gigolo, the 1980 film that transformed the visual representation of men's fashion through the wardrobe designed for Richard Gere's character.
