The Armani Prive Spring-Summer 2012 show for Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week on Tuesday made onlookers green with envy, taking a cue from reptiles and amphibians for the collection.
Italian designer Giorgio Armani was inspired by German author Franz Kafka’s “The Metamorphosis” about a man who is transformed into a reptile-like creature. Armani used this allegory to design a collection for a woman “who is at first calm and easy and then is drawn out of her own skin” with reptile texture, green hues and snake prints.
