Giorgio Armani has confirmed the opening in Milan’s via Bergognone, a new exhibition space dedicated to fashion, design and art to enhance and upgrade its heritage collections of clothing, drawings , images and experiences gathered during his long career. The museum will be built in a former industrial building and, once restored, will include spaces dedicated to education, research, study, deepening and dissemination of the history of fashion and costume in its various manifestations: classrooms, a library , a space conferences and events.
This is a tangible ‘thank you’ to the city that welcomed him. Giorgio Armani said ”I always thought that my work would have been different in other cities and that hardly my style would have been so heavily Italian and international at the same time. So I decided to make available in my city the fruits of my labor, not only my clothing creations, but also the sense of the subject and experience. I thought it might be interesting especially for the many young people who come to the world of fashion and design and that this heritage will find inspiration and ideas to create new ideas and businesses of the future.
