MILAN, March 3, 2001 – There were no surprises at Emporio Armani—instead,
plenty of the reliable, well-made and affordable
basics we have come to expect.
Everyday pantsuits were loosely cut and sometimes
trimmed with white piping; easy chinos were upgraded
with a short mottled fur, and optic, geometric
sweaters looked casual over shiny white pants. Not
everything, however, was sensible day wear: Traditional
blazers were spiced up when paired with teensy bikini
tops, leather dresses were decorated with diagonal
ruffles and paillette tops dazzled over striped
trousers. Armani also offered a side-snap black coat
with an off-kilter pocket, beaded jackets with floral
motifs, shimmering evening slips and an array of
black-velvet minidresses.
