The future of Giorgio Armani's empire may be unknown at the moment, with the Italian designer getting on in age and seemingly no successor to his global fashion brand. It is then fitting that for FW12, Armani chose to look to his past and feature black and white photography for the new campaign, tapping top model Simon Nessman once again to appear in the shots meant to evoke a "timeless elegance", all shot by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott and styled by George Cortina.
