Emporio Armani 'Up To Date' Menswear Collection F/W 16/17

An accelerated wardrobe. Techno-tailoring for the digital generation.

Dynamism, performance an innovation are the keywords of a collection that upgrades the man`s wardrobe, resetting garments, design solutions and constructions.

A fast urban scenario featuring innovative materials with a major focus on comfort, in which laser cuts and bonded strips and seams describe an aesthetic reconciling the new forms.

Denim is the new passe-partout; bonded with leather or insulated strips it goes with the most classic Bouclè and Prince of Wales Check fabrics.

Sportswear and tailoring come together in an innovative form of morphing: jackets conceal interiors with tape and reflective trim.

Futuristic leather appliquè appears on jackets, shirts and sweaters in an updated version of military braiding.

Volumes redefine the silhouette: jackets may be long or short, tube trousers are wide and closed at the bottom or have deep gathers.

Organic hues - stone grey, forest green and deep blue - are the colours of the collection.

Accessories are dynamic and pragmatic in character: shoes with rounded toes and injected soles are strong and ultralight and maxi bags in high-tech shapes have calfskin trim printed with wood grain.
