Emporio Armani Giorgio Armani Women's Collection Autumn/Winter 2005-2006
She has that special charm. A declaration of intent. A new manifesto for the thoughtful and feminine woman, who now moulds her own image, combining logic with intuition. “She is a woman of innate intelligence,” maintains Giorgio Armani, ”who always strives for elegance, but who also takes pleasure in adding touches of wit and irony to create her own individual, modern style.” Sensuous and free spirited, this young woman eschews the commonplace and the blatant in favour of a fresh look that redefines the figure and flatters the legs, nimble and poised.

Versace
The woman I have in mind when designing is one whose individuality and inner confidence shines on the outside. She is also sophisticated, sexy, smart, and dynamic. The contemporary woman is not afraid to be a woman. She can still be powerful by maintaining her femininity and sensuality.
The Versace man is charismatic . . . He seduces with his personality, attitude and carriage. True personality comes from within, My clothes are merely the choice of a woman or a man who wants to be seen and discovered
