Giorgio Armani Retrospective at the Shanghai Art Museum

The Armani Group announced that Giorgio Armani will visit Hong Kong and Shanghai at the end of March for a series of events coinciding with the opening of the Solomon R. Guggenheim's Giorgio Armani Retrospective at the Shanghai Art Museum on April 1.

Giorgio Armani said, "It is a great honour to have the Guggenheim's exhibition of my work presented by the Shanghai Art Museum.

China, its culture and spirit, have been a constant personal inspiration, which makes this opening even more meaningful."

On March 30, on his way to Shanghai, Giorgio Armani will stop in Hong Kong to present his Armani/Privé Spring/Summer 2006 haute couture collection in an exclusive fashion show for 1,500 invited guests.

Giorgio Armani will then travel to Shanghai where, on April 1, the Shanghai Art Museum will celebrate the opening of the Solomon R. Guggenheim's Giorgio Armani Retrospective with a VIP cocktail party for 1,000 people followed by an exclusive fashion show at the Shanghai Grand Theatre.
