Today's collection included some ever present Armani signatures. The thirties insinuated themselves in the form of the chevron patterns of Art Deco. Fitted gazar jackets limned the body. And of course, there were pants galore, often in mikado satin and fitted to a practical fault. It was those pants that clarified a characteristic of Armani's couture: its tension, in radical opposition to the ease on which he founded his empire. He's working something out here. Today, the experiment yielded some fascinating results (a bustier gown embroidered in strands of sequins looked like a spill of hell red liquid latex) and some dead ends (black satin pants sprouted what looked like a fanny pack). And so it goes on.For video coverage of the show click here.
