Armani’s spring/summer 2026 line marks the silent farewell to the prince of fashion, Giorgio Armani, who passed away in fall 2025 surrounded by his family. The campaign for the iconic fashion designer’s last collection was captured at his home in Milan.
Riposa in pace, Re Giorgio: Giorgio Armani has left a huge gap in the fashion world since he passed away in September 2025 at the age of 91. Now his villa in the prestigious Via Borgonuovo district has served as the backdrop for the campaign for the spring/summer 2026 collection, Signor Armani’s last.
The iconic designer was known for his incomparable taste – something that is reflected in his Milan residence, which also served as the venue for Armani’s shows. The decision to shoot this campaign in the house that is still occupied by Armani’s long-time life and business partner Leo Dell’Orco is intended to convey continuity and symbolize a return to the origins.
The legacy of a giant
Photographer Oliver Hadlee Pearch staged the top models Vittoria Ceretti and Clément Chabernaud in the various rooms of the villa, but also made use of the spacious garden. Although the two models take center stage, they are always surrounded by objects, design pieces, sculptures and works of art from the maestro’s collection – including works by big names such as Andy Warhol, Francesco Clemente and Antonio Lopez. In addition to the protagonists, Aboubakar Conte and Zhaoyi Fan are also part of the campaign, while Greta Hofer presents the Giorgio Armani eyewear line.
Elegance, Armani once said, is not about standing out, but about being remembered. A claim that his latest campaign also lives up to: structured suits, flowing fabrics and an effortless, timeless luxury that has always characterized the signature of the fashion genius.
