Giorgio Armani is an Italian luxury fashion house founded in 1975 by Giorgio Armani in Milan. The company, Giorgio Armani S.p.A., remains privately held under the founder's ownership, making it one of the last major independent fashion houses led by its original designer. Giorgio Armani serves as chairman, chief executive, and sole shareholder.

The house gained recognition in the early 1980s for deconstructed, unstructured jackets and suits that softened traditional men's tailoring by removing stiff linings and padding. This approach became widely influential and was adopted across the fashion industry. Armani's designs for the 1980 film American Gigolo, worn by Richard Gere, brought the brand to international public attention. The company expanded into womenswear, and Armani became a prominent presence on red carpets and in celebrity dressing.

The Giorgio Armani brand operates at the highest tier of the company's portfolio, producing men's and women's haute couture (Armani Prive), ready-to-wear, accessories, shoes, eyewear, cosmetics, fragrances, and home furnishings (Armani Casa). The company also operates Armani Hotels and Resorts, with properties in Dubai and Milan. Other brand lines include Emporio Armani and EA7 Armani Exchange.

Giorgio Armani operates over 2,000 points of sale worldwide, including directly operated boutiques and franchise locations across all brand tiers. Flagships are located in Milan's Via Montenapoleone, New York's Madison Avenue, Paris, London, and Tokyo. The company's fragrances are produced through a licensing agreement with L'Oreal Group. Giorgio Armani reported group revenue of approximately 2.4 billion euros in 2023.
