Armani to show Emporio women's line in London

Giorgio Armani said last Wednesday he would showcase the spring summer 2018 collection of his Emporio Armani women's line in London this September rather than in Milan, on the day the renovated Bond Street Emporio Armani store opens.

Both Giorgio Armani and Emporio Armani spring summer collections usually go on show in Milan in June for men and in September for women.

"London, dynamic, energetic and cosmopolitan is the perfect setting for my Emporio Armani collection," the 82-year-old Italian fashion designer said in a statement.
