Inside the Giorgio Armani x Kith Summer 2025 Collection

Some collaborations are expected. Others catch the industry by surprise. When Giorgio Armani teamed up with Kith last year, it marked a rare meeting of old-world tailoring and new-school cool. That union returns this summer with ‘Estate’—a collection that blends Italian elegance with the contemporary spirit of New York. 

Crafted with the precision that defines Armani, this second drop champions texture and tailoring. A silk twill blazer with exaggerated pockets introduces softened structure to summer layering, blurring the line between loungewear and luxury. Completing the look: a crossover shirt and trousers in tonal monogram silk, creating a head-to-toe ensemble that feels both effortless and refined.

 

Another highlight is the Bermuda short, reimagined from a Kith classic and elevated with sharp pleats, belt loops, and a silk twill finish. Scenic prints transport the collection to the coastlines of Capri, Forte dei Marmi, Sardinia, and Malibu. Sun-drenched visuals wash over swimwear, shorts, zip-ups, and an expansive edit of tees, lending each piece a sense of escape.

The story continues through accessories—card holders, bandanas, silk ties, and sunglasses, all infused with the capsule’s co-branded spirit. Hats range from soft-brimmed buckets to structured fedoras, unified by Kith and Armani’s shared signature.

Totes bring texture in raffia and canvas, finished with suede and leather trims. On foot, the offering expands to include penny loafer–inspired espadrilles in supple goat leather and suede slides in black or brown.

 

Marking a first for the partnership, the women’s capsule brings together the codes of both brands through a lens of cross-continental summer style. From the Giorgio Armani archives comes a hammered silk kimono in muted blues, cut with precision and fluidity—wide sleeves, a defined collar, and a waist tie that adds structure.

A tonal paisley dress in viscose silk completes the selection, featuring a sweetheart neckline, barely there straps, and a co-branded pendant at the back.

 

Lightweight cover-up dresses in crossover and deep-neckline silhouettes offer an airy elegance, crafted from a whisper-soft silk blend. An evening gown introduces a more formal note, designed for al fresco dinners or late-summer nights. Rounding out the drop are graphic tees inspired by Italian and American destinations, along with a custom sarong and swimwear.
