Sharjah24 – Reuters: Giorgio Armani took fashionistas back to the 1980s for his Fall/Winter 2021/2022 collection, nodding to the era's bright colors during a live-streamed show at the Milan Fashion Week.

The veteran designer, affectionately called "King Giorgio" in his native Italy, presented plenty of hot pink and purple creations, high-waisted trousers, and chunky jewellry in the collection called "In the mood for pop."

In a video presented at the virtual Milan Fashion Week on Thursday, models wore wide-leg trousers with suspenders, velvet jumpsuits and round-shouldered jackets and coats, some with boule buttons, others with shiny patterns.

Against a backdrop of the brand's name lit up in colorful neon signs, models strutted down the catwalk to the sound of club music.

Milan Fashion Week is a virtual event this season with designers sharing videos of their presentations on a digital platform instead of hosting the usual buzzing catwalk shows due to COVID-19 restrictions.
