During an exclusive conversation with BoF’s Imran Amed just days before the opening of the Armani/Silos exhibition where Giorgio Armani celebrated his 40th year in business, we are offered an exclusive look at one of Giorgio’s only video interviews to date. Praised for his work despite a relatively late start in the industry, Giorgio Armani’s career skyrocketed to form the global fashion empire he know presides over with profits totaling more than $2.2 billion USD a year. Having created such a lasting impact on the world of fashion, many would agree that Giorgio Armani’s legacy is sure even though at the age of 80 he still seems set on securing it. As BoF’s Imran Amed sits down with the man himself inside a 50,000-square-foot museum where Armani‘s vast archive is now being showcased, we learn how overseeing every single manifestation of his brand has lead the company to where it is today and helped it retain a relevance to “the world we live in.” For the full story on Giorgio Armani’s fashion legacy and his conversation with the Business of Fashion, head directly to their website.
