Emporio Armani SS23 Prepares for a Lively Summer Holiday
Fueled by sensual cuts, deconstructed tailoring and a vivid color story.
Emporio Armani took to the Milan Fashion Week stage to unveil its refined Spring/Summer 2023 collection, officially dubbed “A Basketful of Summer.”
“Summer is defined by lightness, in attitude and spirit lightness as immediacy and the sheer joy of living and dressing for the season: choosing clothes and accessories to throw on without too much thought,” the official collection notes read. “This collection by Emporio, the brand that Giorgio Armani has always seen as a container of possibilities, resembles a wicker basket, full of surprises that will bring the holiday spirit to the city and give any holiday the appropriate fresh and composed feel.”
With bold tailoring — slits, vertical openings and cuts — skin breathes among the open air, implementing notes of sensuality into the range. Shorts receive small cuts and overalls open to reveal almost the entire leg, while pleated trousers do not shy away from the figure when paired with deconstructed blazers. The color story is lively-yet-natural, calling on a plethora of tones including cool blues, slate greys, stark whites, jet blacks, electric yellows and organic greens. And for accessories, Emporio introduces woven hats with exaggerated brims alongside rubber sabot shoes.
The presentation concluded with the final model dancing his way down the runway to the rhythm of reggae, championing the line’s penchant for a carefree summertime spirit.
