Jess Cartner-Morley on fashion: pay your own tribute to Armani by perfecting his signature relaxed style

Giorgio Armani's legacy is still deeply ingrained in the fashion world, even after his passing. The soft tailoring and relaxed style he pioneered have become an integral part of our wardrobe staples. To pay homage to this iconic designer without breaking the bank, it's not about splurging on expensive pieces, but rather perfecting his signature look.

Armani's impact on fashion is palpable, yet accessible. You don't need to spend thousands to channel his effortless elegance. The key lies in understanding the soft tailoring philosophy – soft jackets that skim your body without pinching or formalizing you, trousers that flow effortlessly with every step, and a muted color palette that whispers rather than shouts.

To start, invest in a slouchy blazer that exudes definition at the shoulders without feeling constricting. Cos's £169 merino wool blazer is an excellent starting point. A good blazer can seamlessly transition from daytime casual to evening dressing. Then, focus on finding slouchy trousers that flow with your movement but still have a bit of shape. Massimo Dutti's £99.95 wool blend darted trousers are a great option – they're luxe without the hefty price tag.

When it comes to color palette, stick to muted tones like oat, dove, navy, and biscuit. These hues not only look more expensive than bright colors but also create an effortless layering effect with each other. If you're on a tight budget, Uniqlo's range of muted colors is worth exploring.

One final tip: accessories can make or break the overall look. Opt for minimal jewelry that complements your outfit without overwhelming it. A sleek leather handbag in minimalist design will elevate your entire ensemble. Remember, less is more – effortless understatement is the ultimate tribute to Armani's timeless style.

For those looking to pay their respects to Armani, these styling tips are a great starting point. By mastering his signature relaxed style, you'll be able to effortlessly channel his elegant, timeless aesthetic without breaking the bank or resorting to impersonation. The true spirit of Armani lies in embracing soft tailoring and effortless elegance – qualities that transcend the boundaries of high fashion.
 
Wow 🤩

I'm loving this idea of paying homage to Giorgio Armani's style on a budget! Soft tailoring is literally my weakness 😍, and I love how it makes you look and feel so effortless and put-together. The key is to find those perfect pieces that exude definition without feeling too formal or constricting. I'm definitely adding those Cos slouchy blazers and Massimo Dutti trousers to my shopping list ASAP 👗💼! And don't even get me started on the power of accessories - a simple leather handbag can totally elevate an outfit 🤩
 
i gotta say, im not impressed by these styling tips... they're just a watered down version of armani's iconic style 🤔. like, where's the edge? the drama? the flair? its all so... understated 😴. and £169 for cos blazer is kinda steep considering it's just a normal blazer 💸. shouldn't we be pushing ourselves to try something new and bold instead of playing it safe? and what about experimenting with brighter colors or statement accessories? that's how you truly pay homage to armani's legacy, imo 🚫
 
I'm not sure I'm sold on the whole 'celebrating fashion legends' thing... it just seems like a way for brands to cash in on someone's reputation 🤑. And what's with all these 'investment pieces'? You can't put a price on style, but you also don't have to break the bank to look good 👖. I mean, Uniqlo's got some great basics - why not just invest in quality over-the-top designer brands? 😐
 
Armani's influence is still so strong 🙌, but I feel like people are missing the point about his style. It's not just about splurging on expensive pieces, it's about understanding how to mix and match his iconic items in a way that makes you look effortless, not try-hard 😎. For me, it's all about finding those perfect slouchy blazers and trousers that make you feel like you're wearing nothing at the same time 💃, and then just adding in some understated accessories to tie everything together 🛍️. Don't get me wrong, I love a good designer handbag as much as the next person 👜, but it's really about editing your wardrobe down to those timeless pieces that make you feel like yourself, not someone else 💁‍♀️.

I'm loving this idea of paying tribute to Giorgio Armani's legacy without breaking the bank 🙌! I think it's so cool how his soft tailoring philosophy can create a totally effortless, put-together look that's perfect for everyday dressing. And, omg, have you checked out Cos and Massimo Dutti's affordable range? 💸 Those blazers and trousers are giving me major 90s vibes 🕺! But, I think the real key is to stick to muted tones – oatmeal, dove grey, navy... they're just so chic and timeless. And, accessories can totally make or break an outfit, but I'm all about minimalist jewelry and sleek leather bags 💅👜
