Emporio Armani 1980’s Cable Knit Sweater. Cable-knit designs originated from the Aran Islands off the coast of Ireland, initially created as heavy wool protectors for fishermen. By the mid-20th century the style was adopted by Ivy League American universities. It became the ultimate symbol of ‘Preppy’ and ‘Old Money’ heritage fashion, famously popularised by brands like Ralph Lauren. Giorgio Armani took this classic Anglo-American preppy staple and injected it with Italian sophistication. Instead of a heavy, boxy traditional fit, Armani uses a more fluid, lighter silhouette. The iconic embroidered eagle logo represents freedom and international status.
