Auto industry leader reshapes automotive realm according to their fashion sense

In the world of fashion, Giorgio Armani has made an indelible mark with his timeless elegance and iconic designs. But the Italian designer's influence extends beyond the realm of clothing, reaching as far as the automobile industry.

Giorgio Armani's love for vehicles began in the 1960s, when he made a name for himself as a designer at Nino Cerruti. This early success laid the foundation for his own label, which he founded in 1975 with the aim of creating timeless elegance.

As his company grew into a global empire, Armani's car collection grew to include some of the most iconic automobiles of our time. According to rumors, his collection included the Ferrari 250 GT and the Lamborghini Miura SV, reflecting his refined taste.

In 2004, Armani collaborated on a limited special edition Mercedes-Benz CLK Cabriolet, dubbed the "designo by Giorgio Armani". This was followed by a collaboration on an exclusive Vespa 946 Emporio Armani in 2015.

Armani's impact on the world of vehicles was not limited to design collaborations. His company dressed Bugatti customers, and he officially outfitted Ferrari teams starting from 2021. In 2020/24, he collaborated on the sustainability-focused Fiat 500e Giorgio Armani.

Rumors also suggest that Armani's collection included a Shelby Cobra Roadster, adding a touch of Americana to his impressive lineup. His collection also included a Maserati Quattroporte and a Porsche Cayenne, showcasing his diverse taste in vehicles.

Armani's car collection is a testament to his refined taste and his ability to elevate even the most mundane objects into something truly extraordinary. His legacy in the world of fashion is well-known, but his impact on the automobile industry should not be overlooked.
