The look was sensuous but powerful, with sharply-tailored suits worn with masculine shoes with silver heels. As the show went on, flowing trousers were layered with fabric in an Armani retake on the skirt-over-trousers trend.
It was the evening wear that won Italian fashion king Giorgio Armani rounds of applause from the delighted fashionista audience, as he brought out one after another of glittering dresses and floaty creations with a stellar design.
"The sparkle is accentuated for the evening, with a constellation of stars on a navy blue background," the brand said in its programme notes.
The key to the collection was light -- shimmering on silk or bouncing off crystal adornments or rhinestone-studded heels, to create a multifaceted effect, "as if observed through a kaleidoscope," the label said.
The spring/summer 2013 designs were unveiled in front of a host of celebrity guests, including tennis star Serena Williams.
The show was followed by drinks and mini sushi bites before the prestigious fashion house unveiled an exhibition gathering together the best of its designs, from clothes to accessories and jewels.
