The difference between Fashion and Style is Quality
In the beginning, I thought that women needed protection, on a style level, to have the right impact to let them realize their desire for success. Now, many years later, women no longer need a masculine uniform. Women have changed.
All my work at Armani is based primarily on my personal vision of style, and while I differentiate between the look and mood of my various labels, I am never overly concerned with being 'on trend.'
Style is having the courage of one's choices and the courage to say no. It's good taste and culture.
Individual style is the correct balance of knowing who you are, what works fro you, and how to develop your own personality
The difference between style and fashion is quality.
An ordinary person can simply walk into a shop and feel that they can participate in helping the needy by simply buying a perfume.
You can think you've made it and yet the next day's press will always be waiting for you, the public will always ask more of you. In short, you can always do better!
I find that fashion recently has been a little too hasty. Oftentimes it's put together quickly to catch the attention of the media, and I didn't want to do that.
The products that are moving out of the stores the fastest are those that are most expensive.
They're sort of like a little ballerina shoe,
There's a lot of trousers. There are some dresses, about 20 of them, ... Skirts are just above the knee. I've also done Bermuda shorts. They're cut on the bias to give them a lot of movement, and they're also very light.
It always depends on how it's done - it mustn't be overtly exhibitionist.
China approaches fashion with strong enthusiasm. And I believe that this enthusiasm can be translated into something interesting, economically speaking. Not only for my brand, but also for other brands.
