Apparel & Accessories: Flaunt your Armani shades

It’s cleverly called ‘Frames of Life.’ And Giorgio Armani’s latest brand communication initiative has touched a chord with people across the world, who love their Armani sunglasses.

The idea is simple enough: choose a picture of yours taken on a holiday – an unforgettable moment, a place or a scene that captures life at its fullest. Goes without saying that you’ve got to be wearing your Armani glares. Upload using Instagram and share it on social networks, adding the hashtag #FRAMESOFLIFE. Thanks to a partnership with followgram.me, the pictures will be uploaded to the FRAMES OF YOUR HOLIDAY album, which can be viewed on the armani.com/framesoflife website.

And if you’re in two minds about what picture to choose then make sure you check out the Frames of Life Spring/Summer 2012 advertising campaign, which can be seen on the website.

The connection between fashion and real life has always been central to Giorgio Armani’s work. And with the Frames of Life project, the designer has tried to create a new and continuous dialogue with consumers. The idea is to create an impressive digital photo gallery: an entertaining visual diary.
