Giorgio Armani continued his sleek streak with the Spring 2013 Armani Privé collection he presented in Paris on Tuesday. There were some looks that pointed back to the designer's history of appropriating men's suiting for women, but by and large this offering was filled with feminine pieces rendered from high-gloss fabrics. Some of the garments, thanks to beading, patterned fabrics, and wooden accessories, had a vaguely tribal feeling, and each look was paired with Armani's rendition of the traditional fez.

    Young Giorgio Armani Didn't Work Hard, as He "Was Quite Good Looking"

    "Up until I was about 30 to 32-years-old, I used to potter around doing a small job at a department store," Giorgio Armani said recently.

    "Up until I was about 30 to 32-years-old, I used to potter around doing a small job at a department store," Giorgio Armani said recently. "I used to coordinate what went into the window or other store tasks. And I didn't have to work very hard — because, well, I was quite good looking. The female managers in the shop used to favor me, making things really easy for me."

    So when did Armani become the tireless businessman he is today? "I realized that I couldn't and didn't want to go on living like that — on the fringes of a beautiful profession, without working hard, without risking, without standing up for it," he said. "I had to somehow wake up and doing this made me into who I am today."

    Giorgio Armani Spring 2013 | Runway

    Softly tailored sportswear in hazy shades of gray opened Giorgio Armani's Spring 2013 show. With their subdued tones in liquid-like silk, they were elegant and understated elegant — and stood in a dramatic contrast to the glistening eveningwear in navy and black that closed the show. In between, there were organza and charmeuse tunics, dresses, and trousers in dreamy prints of pale blue and smoky lavender. And that's the beauty of Armani; he lets each look flow gently into one another seamlessly, like a story unfolding.
