Like two seasoned jazz musicians riffing off each other’s melodies, Our Legacy and Emporio Armani return for their second collaborative symphony since 2023—this time expanding their duet to include womenswear. The collection, a sun-drenched ode to spring-summer 2025, mines Armani’s vaults, reimagining house signatures through Our Legacy’s irreverent lens. Picture vintage fabrics—once confined to Milanese ateliers—now dancing to a looser, more experimental rhythm.
The designs whisper of East Asian tailoring: collarless shirts float like morning mist, kimono sleeves billow with the nonchalance of a breeze. It’s as if each garment was dipped in the golden-hour light of PANTELLERIA, the volcanic island where George Armani himself once sought refuge. Photographer Alasdair McLellan captured the campaign there, turning lava-scarred cliffs into a backdrop for robes that echo hotel slippers and terrycloth languor—a sartorial siesta.
Meanwhile, Emporio’s standalone “All In” show—a 96-look manifesto—played like a high-stakes poker hand: tuxedos folded against sportswear, brocade jackets shrugging off formality. But the collaboration? That’s the afterparty. Where Armani’s precision meets Our Legacy’s “carefully rumpled” ethos, resulting in clothes that feel both nostalgic and freshly unwrapped—like finding your grandfather’s tailored shirt, then wearing it to a rooftop gin tonic at dusk.
