The new METAL Spring/Summer 2021 issue is finally out and we are happy to announce that we have joined forces with Emporio Armani in its anniversary to celebrate 40 years of fresh inspiration and elegance in eminently urban collections aimed at a young and dynamic audience that opts for elegance and simplicity. Like us, forty contributors including photographers, visual artists, journalists, editors and many other professionals from different fields reinterpret the universe of Emporio Armani touching topics such as sustainability, identity, evolution, community, Milan and its DNA and creativity.
We've worked on the theme of identity, which is perfect for an issue like ours focused on reinforcing a sense of community and the reaffirmation of each person's identity. Photographer Nick van Tiem, along with stylist Suze Kuit and the rest of the team have done a fantastic job on a sober, formally-speaking, yet visually attractive story, which focuses on highlighting the individuality of every single model. Here you will be able to take a look at the pictures, some of them can also be seen on Emporio Armani's Instagram, where you can check out other collaborations. You can keep track of all the publications through the hashtags #EAsince1981 #emporioarmani
“I first started Emporio Armani as a way to channel my aesthetic of elegance and simplicity in a youthful, metropolitan direction, and it soon became known for its own distinctive look,” Giorgio Armani explained to us. “Emporio Armani is dynamic, and as a collection is a type of hub of multiple designs, ideas. It appeals to those individuals who possess strong identities of their own, as it is a celebration of their energy and spirit.”
