【TOKYO KIZETSU SHOPPING】GIORGIO ARMANI

There are lots of luxury clothing store in Japan. Editor in Chief Hoshiba looks for stunning　shopping moments. H:Hello A:Hello, welcome to our store. H:Recently, I bought some items at your shops in Milano the other day. Although I really admired the Armani brand, it was out of reach in my young old days. As I’m getting older, I feel comfortable to enter your stores. I’m 45 years old now. When I was 18, I wanted an Armani item and back then, one printed T-shirt reads “Emporio Armani”. That was the only item I could afford back then. When I bought one, one brochure with full of color photos comes along. I’ve seen it over and over again and I’ve purchased just one T shirt in each season. For me, Armani is a special brand, my all time icon. That’s why I’m here today to hear your guidance. A:Understood. I’m happy to share our stories with you. A:This inner side is the section of Armani Casa. H:Great, tons of items here. A:As you know, Armani is not just a brand of clothes. Life items in general are our expertise as well. H: Sure I understand. I also visited the Armani shop in Milano before. It’s full of collections there. A:Exactly. H:Armani also owns hotels… A:We have an Armani hotel in a place called Manzoni. H:Restaurants as well. A:We sell tailor made, high end furniture, as well as affordable towels and glasses. H:I like Armani glasses, too. “GA” logo is inscribed in those glasses as well. This glass is beautiful. A:Quite simple, isn’t it? H:Simple, yet elegant
