Giorgio Armani Menswear Spring-Summer 1987

The collection explores a casual elegance, balancing structure and fluidity. Suits feature padded but not exaggerated shoulders and loose trousers, offering a balance between sartorial rigour and comfort. Ties are replaced by loosely knotted scarves, emphasising a more spontaneous and personal elegance.

Sportswear proposes a return to the essentials, with knitwear inspired by classic jacquard motifs but declined in bold colours with faded tones, evoking a lived-in, natural elegance.

The fabrics are sophisticated and rich in tactile and visual variations: silks and cottons woven with shiny yarns, raw silk, linen/viscose blends, wool crepe, washed cottons with surface patterns, Prince of Wales wools and worsted cloths give depth to the collection while maintaining lightness and wearability.

The colour palette is articulated in cool mineral tones - sand, iron, stone - suggesting an organic connection with the material and light of the Mediterranean summer.
