Where Does He find The Time?

So Giorgio Armani is opening a new store in New York. What with that & dressing nearly every single star-worth-their-salt for OSCAR this weekend; Armani found time to BLOG! Yes,blog; at THE NEW YORK TIMES STYLE MAGAZINE. And you what? He’s funny.

After praising the service of the (perennially bankrupt) ALITALIA he goes on to lament the lack of “black-out curtains” in New York Apartments & America in general. Then complains that “Americans overcook their pasta (which is sadly true) and “And there’s too much sauce! Too much of everything!” “Please try to control yourselves!” Don’t you love it? The whole world is going straight to hell but we Americans are “over-saucing our spaghetti!”

Aramani was thrilled that the evening didn’t end at desert but lamented the lack of glamour at the post dinner club:
, “I noticed that the crowd was dressed in a rather basic way. In Europe, the people you see at clubs are extremely beautiful to look at and are wearing very elegant clothes”


Ouch! But to give him his due; nothing he says is untrue. And really he is a genius! He took the entire European fashion sense & sensibility & pared it down to its most basic elements & essence & my God! The tailoring…the fit!! His clothes are simple & elegant & to the point! And you know what else? He is DAMN HOT for a 70 year old guy still rocking a Carribean tan & a Speedo!! Cio, Giorgio!!
