Sophia Loren and Jessica Chastain, Caterina Murino and Giuseppe Tornatore, Gabriele Salvatores, Sergio Castellitto, Luca Guadagnino, Luca Argentero and then Claudia Gerini, Margherita Bui, Eva Riccobono, Raul Bova: many responded to Giorgio Armani’s invitation to One Night Only, show fashion at the Arsenale in Venice. This is one of the most anticipated glamorous events in Venice of the 80s, besides the amfAr alla Misericordia in honor of the African-American director Ava Duvernay and the exclusive opening of the Hotel Des Bains on the Lido for two parties.
Carefully prepared in one of Venice’s magical locations, the Serenissima shipyard, A One Night Only follows the format of a traveling fashion show that takes the Armani universe to the world’s most important cities and has so far visited London, Tokyo, Beijing. , Rome, New York, Paris, Dubai, St. Moritz. It began with a fashion show by Giorgio Armani Privé in a restored old shipyard and workshop complex located in the eastern part of the city, next to the exhibition grounds of the Biennale. Tese delle Nappe features a collection of haute couture looks, including dresses inspired by Venice. The show will be followed by a party for seven hundred guests with a live performance by Roisin Murphy and DJ Mark Ronson.
Giorgio Armani’s association with the Venice Film Festival began in 1990 with the world premiere of Martin Scorsese’s documentary Made in Milan. On this occasion, the designer threw a big party in honor of the director in Ka’Leon on Giudecca. Moreover, over the years, Giorgio Armani has constantly worked with actors and directors present in Venice, dressing them for the red carpet. This celebration of the connection between Giorgio Armani and cinema also includes the renewal of the Armani Beauty partnership as the main sponsor of the festival for the sixth year in a row. Today’s event aims to minimize the impact on the environment: Armani Group plans to encourage the reuse of materials, promote separate waste collection, eliminate single-use plastic, avoid food waste and use LED lighting. All residual greenhouse gas emissions associated with this event will be offset by supporting environmental projects in the Venice Lagoon, run by Sea the Change and Blue Valley, and it has also been decided to support the non-profit organization “We’re here in Venice with a donation.” In addition, the Armani Group will make a donation to the non-profit Venetian Heritage Foundation: this contribution will go towards the conservative restoration of selected works belonging to the collection of the Galleria Giorgio Franchetti in Ca’ d’Oro.
