For the fall/winter 2016-17 season, Armani Junior offers a series of garments within the collection with a strongly fashionable style, featuring the use of the most sophisticated materials and cutting-edge processing like coatings, heat seals and laser work, along with high-impact prints and graphics.
The Newborn collection consists of a series of playsuits and outfits in jersey, chenille and cotton interlock, with delicate pink muslin details. The graphic prints are miniature versions of Emporio Armani Manga Bear, or feature tiny frogs and balloons on a polka-dotted white and pink background. Hats, patterned wool scarves and the softest nappa leather shoes, either plain or in polka dots, complete the collection and are available in exclusive gift packs.
For the Armani Junior girl there is attention to detail and the choice of natural and practical fabrics are the basis of the collection “Armanissimo.” Designed for light-hearted and spirited children returning to their school desks after the summer holidays. The graphics are central, with all-over white and blue polka dots inspired by the works of the Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama. The outerwear includes the little bon ton jacket in soft wool fabric and the super-light jacket finished with gros grain ribbons. The must have in this collection is the classic 5-pockets with new wearability, snugger but at the same time comfortable with its power-stretch fabrics. The collection is completed by an extensive range of footwear, from varnished pumps to the drummed leather boots, bags and hats.
Also, the “Frog” special project is for little girls including dresses inspired by the works of the Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama. Polka dots of various sizes and a picture of a frog recurring as a detail and in prints on little dresses, cardigans, waterproof jackets and sweaters. The navy blue double-breasted jacket has a hood decorated with the outline of a frog, which also appears on the cap, leggings and socks. The collection is completed with polka-dot rubber boots, tall or Chelsea style.
For the Armani Junior boy, the collection “Forest” is winter theme that takes its graphic inspiration from the work of Ansel Adams, the photographer whose works feature the large American national parks. The colour palette is cold and includes blue, white, light grey and forest green. The use of warm materials such a wool, fabric, velvet and canvas makes the outerwear perfect for sub-zero temperatures.
“Lunar” is a double inspiration for this theme: space and the lunar world and the abstract and action works of the artist Jackson Pollock. Brush strokes of strong colours such as bright blue, lime green and fluorescent orange stand out on classical chromatic base of white, black, blue and grey. The mix of textures give life to technical garments with a contemporary elegance, ideal for free time and for more sophisticated occasions.

The colour palette includes various shades of grey, from the darkest tones to metallic and iridescent silver. Black, proposed as an alternative to the classic navy blue for both the more casual garments as well as formal, lends a touch of modernity and an urban look. Details are highlighted in fluorescent orange.
The offering for girls includes T-shirts, dresses, bombers and studs with a truly bold attitude. The butterfly, the motif that is seen on various garments, gives a delicate accent to the logo and text, and is repeated in an all-over kaleidoscope reminiscent of the work of Damien Hirst. Studs are also the must-have for the offering for boys, which includes shirts, jackets and parkas, and contains prints inspired by the works of Stephen Sprouse and Basquiat.
