Director Paul Schrader was no
architect, but Giorgio Armani is. He showed us a new way of seeing AND a
new way of being seen: men could be dressed (fashionable) without being
old-fashioned. Or effete, or [100%] queer. Bringing jacket-&-tie
back to men's wardrobes may not seem like much. But with his
un-constructed but expertly tailored suits, as employed by a guy whose
job it was to please women, Armani made heterosexuality sexy again, even
while helping to redistribute the balance of sexual power. This scene
was his entre-manifesto.
