In his first and last interview on screen, Giorgio Armani tells the story of his life in this star-studded series that traces the rise of Italian fashion through the story of the families that have been ruling it for decades – from Armani, Versace, Gucci and Valentino to Missoni, Zegna, Ferragamo, Dolce&Gabbana and Prada. Set against Milan’s lavish and exclusive fashion sanctuaries and featuring legendary insiders, the film delves into rivalries, personal stories and the enduring love affair between Hollywood and Italian designers.
