Giorgio Armani's Spring 2025 collection, presented in a special Manhattan runway show on Oct. 17, was all about journeys. The show notes and styling emphasized the adventure of international jet-setting, through an opening look accessorized with a luggage-toting bellhop and a series of 1930s-inspired pantsuits and shimmery, soft dresses—a wardrobe you'd expect to see a black-and-white film star packing for an overnight sleeper train through Europe or a first visit to the Empire State. Looking at singer and influencer Dixie D'Amelio's outfit for the front row, I thought of another sort of journey the Armani woman knows how to dress for: a late night out in New York City.
