The press release hinted that Armani was keen to get into a more current, relevant groove. It spoke of ‘a new era’, where ‘new attitudes and perspectives mark a different way of dressing.’ Armani classics like the caban, the turtleneck and the tuxedo jacket were given a modern spin with the new, slim silhouette. At one point a model even strode onto the runway with his ultra-tight jogger trousers pulled so low his boxer waistband was clearly visible, suggesting that Armani had been looking to the street for inspiration.
