I Love Italian Fashion

Giorgio Armani has no plans to sell

Milan – Giorgio Armani will never sell his fashion empire and has no plans to hand over any of his workload, the 75-year old designer was quoted as saying on Saturday as his autumn/winter fashion shows kicked off.

“I will never sell because I don’t need to and I don’t want to,” he told Italy’s Corriere della Sera newspaper in an interview published on the day of the autumn/winter menswear show for his Emporio Armani line.

“And I’m not stepping aside either, as long as I can, touch wood, keep up this pace,” he added.

“I don’t give a damn about a super-golden pension, I wouldn’t know what to do with it.”
