Giorgio Armani to miss Milan shows for first time after brief stay in hospital
Giorgio Armani, the celebrated Italian designer and one of the most recognisable names in fashion, is to miss his shows at Milan fashion week this weekend due to ill health for the first time in the label's history. In a statement released by the brand on Saturday morning, the 90-year-old designer is 'recovering at home' and 'will not be present at the two shows as he usually is'. According to la Repubblica, his absence comes after a brief stint in hospital. Speaking to the Guardian in January, the man known in Italy as 'Re Giorgio' (King George), said that 'age is undoubtedly a factor to contend with'. While he would 'continue as long as my health and energy permit', he also said that 'taking a step back in the near future [was] inevitable'. Last year, the designer told the Corriere della Sera newspaper he planned to retire in the next few years regardless, but that the Armani brand would continue without him. In his first live show after the pandemic in 2021, Armani showed a scar from surgery to his arm that resulted from a fall during a visit to the cinema. In the current fashion landscape, which is dominated by conglomerates such as LVMH and Kering, Armani is one of the few designers to remain the sole shareholder of his company while also overseeing every single collection produced in its 50-year history. A recent valuation by Forbes suggested the Armani group was worth £10bn. The designer, who turns 91 next month, is widely credited with transforming stiff suiting for men, getting women into menswear and bringing Italian style to Hollywood. It is thought he is missing this weekend's shows as a precautionary measure so he is able to attend the couture – or Privé – show next month in Paris. One of the Milanese's key contributions to high fashion has been his invention – and reinvention – of celebrity dressing, with Hollywood's bold and beautiful, including Julia Roberts, Cate Blanchett and Angelina Jolie, all wearing his couture gowns on the red carpet. Taking the requisite designer bow at the end of Saturday's Emporio Armani show and Monday's Giorgio Armani show will be Leo Dell'Orco, his collaborator and head of menswear design. The statement also confirmed that Armani had worked 'with his usual dedication' on both collections, and that he plans to watch the shows. As yet, there is no obvious heir to the Armani throne.

She said that in the past, the topic had been "really difficult for people to speak about", but the project team worked to "make it as comfortable as possible".Each contributor was paired with a volunteer interviewer, who is part of the LGBTQ+ community and has a connection to the railways, to ensure an understanding of industry-specific discussion points."In quite a lot of them, they're talking about different franchises that people have worked for and changes in uniform, wrapped up in an experience that they might have had, related to their identity," she volunteer was Laura Stoffers, who works on the museum's communications said: "It's really inspiring being able to talk to older people who are part of the community who have lived their lives and might even share some advice with you.""I think about the interviews quite a lot afterwards, as well," she added. The trail, around the museum's North Shed exhibition, includes quotes from participants in the project, next to objects relating to their can also listen to excerpts of the interviews online as they explore, by scanning a QR contributions include experiences of homophobic abuse, the first LGBTQ+ employee networks at rail companies and LGBTQ+ people being supported by colleagues, even when they didn't expect it. The trail is in place until September, but the archive will be in place for decades into the future."People get a chance to tell their story and that is kept in our collection forever so that people in the future will understand what life has been like," Ms Petersen said."When I started managing this project, I knew it was important, but it was only when I listened to people talking that I realised the true value of it."

Racegoers make the most of the scorching sun as they step out in their Summer finery for the last day of racing's most famous event
Stylish racegoers dusted off their best frocks and put their best fashion foot forward as they arrived for the fifth and final day of Royal Ascot. And for once, it appeared there was not a cloud in a the sky, and rain would not spoil the day at the Berkshire racecourse. In fact, it may have been too hot for some, with temperatures reaching roasting 28C at one point. Bright colours were the order of the day - alongside statement hats of course - and the crowd was a sea of people dressed in vibrant hues. A number of attendees opted for yellow, looking Summery and stylish in their bright ensembles. Many opted for midi or even full-length gowns, making the demure look front and centre when it came to fashion. But as ever, some of the most striking style moments came in the form of headgear, with some racegoers opting for truly eye- catching millinery. Dressed to the nines, groups of classy racegoers also opted to coordinate their attire for the annual occasion, rather than wearing their ensembles solo. Many glamorous revellers showed off their fashion prowess by donning one of the major trends of the season - monochrome outfits. When it comes to fashion, the word monochrome is often used to describe an ensemble that is black or white. However, what it truly means, is an outfit where all items are the same colour (irrespective of what the colour is). In order to create a look which is not flat and boring, those who choose to dress in a monochrome look will often mix colours of the same hue, but different shades. These differences - though subtle - add depth and visual interest to an outfit, while looking chic. Another noticeable style choice made by many revellers was their choice of block colour over prints. While there were, of course, a few attendees who did opt for a patterned ensemble, it was unlike many other years, where prints - often floral or botanical - reign supreme. Making the most of the heat, stunning ballgowns, sizable fascinators and dapper top hats were also all on display as hundreds of well-heeled race enthusiasts made the most of the hot weather which is a rarity in the UK. Royal Ascot, known as the jewel in the crown of the UK racing calendar, will welcome hundreds of thousands of punters during the five-day meet. Whilst no dress code rules apply in the Windsor Enclosure, although the majority of guests choose to dress up regardless, a strict dress code operates across the Royal and Queen Anne Enclosures. Hats are a must in both Royal enclosures. Alternatively, a headpiece or 'hatinator' with a minimum base diameter of 4 inches (10cm) is also acceptable. Dresses must be knee length or longer and forget spaghetti straps - all shoulders must be a minimum width of 1 inch (2.5cm). Strapless, off-the-shoulder and one shoulder items are also banned in the Royal and Queen Anne Enclosures. Shorts of any kind are not permitted. But having been included in the dress code since 1971, trouser suits remain a popular choice - although they mustn't be mismatched. From 2017 onwards, jumpsuits have also been accepted as Ascot worthy, while men must stick to black dress shoes worn with ankle socks, but there are no footwear specifications for women. The Royal Family - who are known to adore equestrian sports - make appearances at Royal Ascot every year. The Prince of Wales attended Ascot solo last year as it came a couple of months after Kate first announced to the world that she had been diagnosed with cancer. This year, William also went to the event without the Princess of Wales by his side, as he was pictured alongside his father, King Charles. He instead sat beside Prince Saud bin Khalid Al-Saud, a member of the ruling royal family of Saudi Arabia, and opposite Charles, 76, and Camilla, 77, as they made their way to the racecourse by carriage as other revellers looked on. It has been reported that pulled out of attending the prestigious five-day meet at the last minute as she continues to 'find the right balance' following her battle with cancer. Racegoers had been hoping to catch a glimpse of Kate as William was named as one of the figures awarding race prizes during day two of the festival. Ascot officials had announced in a published list at 12pm that the Princess was due to be with William in the second carriage in the royal procession - which is marking its 200th anniversary this year. But less than half an hour later, Kensington Palace confirmed just before 12.30pm that Kate would not be attending - and a revised carriage list was published by Ascot. The history of fashion at Royal Ascot Late 1700s It was Beau Brummell, a close friend of the Prince Regent, who decreed that 'men of elegance should wear waisted black coats and white cravats with pantaloons' and this set the tone for the dress code that is still adhered to by men in the Royal Enclosure. 1830s Queen Victoria's visit to Royal Ascot saw her arrive in a pretty lace dress with a full bell skirt and shawl. She also started a craze for the porter bonnet, shielding the wearer from male eyes. 1890s As the dawn of a new century arrived, fashion took on an almost celebratory tone. Skirts were less full, but silhouettes made a greater statement with angular hips and puffed sleeves. Hats were large and full of feathers and adornments. 1900s One of fashion's most iconic images; that of Audrey Hepburn in My Fair Lady was inspired when costume designer Cecil Beaton saw images of Black Ascot, The 1910 Royal Ascot meeting was in full mourning over the death of King Edward. 1920s Hemlines were shorter and cuts were smaller in the 1920s reflecting a post-war generation's rebellion against old traditions. Pearls and furs were the accessories of the day. 1950s Christian Dior's New Look, a small waist and full skirt, was proving popular however it was when the newly crowned Queen Elizabeth and her stylish sister Princess Margaret wore the style at Royal Ascot that it was cemented in history. 1960s Royal Ascot's glamorous profile elevated when Italian actress Sophia Loren was photographed in the Royal Enclosure. In modern times some of the biggest names in Hollywood and fashion have attended. 1970s Trouser suits became more popular following their introduction to the dress code in 1971. Gertrude Shilling, The Ascot Mascot, delighted the press with her extravagant outfits. One year, one of her son David's millinery designs outgrew the Shilling's long-wheel-based Rolls Royce, so the hat had to follow in a van behind. 1980s Sharp lines and bright colours took centre stage during this decade. With statement hats and pointed heels, there was little room for floaty florals in 1980s glamour. 2012 Royal Ascot officially launches its Style Guide to racegoers outlining dress code regulations for the Royal Enclosure and Queen Anne Enclosure (formally known as Grandstand). 2017 The jumpsuit is formally accepted in the Royal Enclosure Dress Code and the Queen Anne Enclosure Dress Code is extended to the new Village Enclosure. 2018 Royal Ascot introduces Style Guides for the Village Enclosure and Windsor Enclosure. 2020 Royal Ascot runs behind closed doors for the first time in the event's history during the global COVID-19 pandemic. 2021 Navy morning suits were permitted in the Royal Enclosure. Source: Royal Ascot MailOnline understands the Princess was 'disappointed' not to be in attendance 'but she has to find the right balance as she fully returns to public facing engagements'. However, Kate's mother Carole Middleton did attend on Wednesday - alongside her daughter-in-law Alizee Thevenet, the wife of Kate's brother James Middleton. The 43-year-old Princess has been making a gradual return to public duties since it was announced in January that she was in remission from cancer. But in the past week she has attended three high-profile events - Trooping the Colour, the annual Order of the Garter service and a visit to a V&A storage facility in London. The King and Queen were joined at Wednesday's event by Zara and Mike Tindall, the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh and Princess Anne and her husband Vice Admiral Sir Tim Laurence. Charles also hosted Lady Sarah Chatto, the daughter of his late aunt Princess Margaret and a favourite of the late Queen Elizabeth II. She was joined on the fourth carriage with her artist husband, Daniel Chatto. Despite her closeness to Her late Majesty, Lady Sarah is known for keeping a low profile, and while she's attended Ascot in the past, she's not regularly seen with the royal family, aside from a handful of key events. The King and Queen, both fans of racing, were also joined by the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester.
