"There's never going to be another Giorgio Armani. Time will ultimately tell, but personally I think he's one of the most influential people men's fashion has ever seen and will ever see. I think every man deep down just wants to wear an Armani suit. Even as men's fashion gets more conceptual, that strong-shoulder and flatteringly draped V-shape will never go out of style."
"Thankfully, Mr. Armani has a catalog of credits, official or otherwise. He did costumes for the Scorsese movies I grew up on like Casino, Goodfellas, and The Wolf of Wall Street. In Christopher Nolan's Batman movies, Mr. Armani created the suits for Christian Bale's Bruce Wayne. In Inglorious Basterds, Brad Pitt's Lt. Aldo Raine wears an Armani-designed tux and a nonexistent Italian accent when posing as a famous Italian stuntman."
Giorgio Armani redefined men's tailoring through strong-shouldered, V-shaped silhouettes that flatter and endure despite conceptual trends. The Armani suit emphasizes drape, movement, and flow detectable best on film. Armani's brand achieved cultural prominence in America and became synonymous with movie stars. Armani created costumes for major films including Scorsese's Casino, Goodfellas, and The Wolf of Wall Street; he supplied suits for Christian Bale's Bruce Wayne in Christopher Nolan's Batman films; and designed a tux for Brad Pitt's Lt. Aldo Raine in Inglourious Basterds. A focused viewing of films featuring Armani's work reveals the craftsmanship and cinematic presence of his tailoring.
