Robert Downey Jr. and Susan Downey in Giorgio Armani, GCFA 2020.
For his Green Carpet Challenge debut, Robert Downey Jr. selected a timeless Giorgio Armani tuxedo. It is a black two-button shawl collar tuxedo, from the designer’s archives. This outfit can be worn time and time again while retaining its classic modernity for which Armani is known. As Mr. Armani has underscored many times in recent months, a timeless style and fine craftsmanship make fashion more sustainable as designs are created to last over the years. Susan Downey is re-wearing an Armani look from 2018, with Stella McCartney shoes. As we always say, wearing an existing outfit has the lowest environmental footprint of all, and something can still be new to you even if it isn’t new new.
