In the late 1970s, as Hollywood’s traditional studio system gave way to a new wave of free-spirited filmmakers known as “New Hollywood,” a revolution was also taking place in fashion. It was during this cultural shift that Italian designer Giorgio Armani emerged, defining the way celebrities approached style, not just on screen, but in real life. Armani passed away at 91 on Thursday.One of the earliest and most iconic moments came in 1978, when Diane Keaton accepted her Best Actress Oscar for Annie Hall wearing an oversized beige Armani blazer: a look her character might’ve worn.

According to Variety, the latest filing in Los Angeles Superior Court accuses Wilson of working with PR professionals…
