(Italian: [ˈdʒordʒo arˈmaːni]), commonly known as Armani, is an Italian luxury fashion house founded in Milan by Giorgio Armani which designs, manufactures, distributes and retails haute couture, ready-to-wear, leather goods, shoes, accessories, and home interiors. Among others, Armani licenses its name and branding to Luxottica for eyewear[2] and L'Oréal for fragrances and cosmetics.[3] It is considered Italy's third-biggest fashion group behind Gucci and Prada.[4]
