Summary
- The fifth season of Giorgio Armani Crossroads examines identity and transformation through five women’s personal journeys.
- Directed by Celine Song, the project blurs fashion and cinema to explore real stories of decision and change.
- Episodes release from October 22 to November 20 across Giorgio Armani’s digital platforms.
Since its launch in 2021, Giorgio Armani Crossroads has explored fashion as a language of identity. What began as a digital storytelling project has evolved into a thoughtful portrait of women reflecting on choices that influenced their lives. Each season extends the conversation between self-expression, culture and style, focusing less on image and more on meaning.
This year’s edition is directed by Celine Song, the filmmaker behind Past Lives and Material Love. Her sensibility gives the series a cinematic intimacy that feels completely in sync with Armani’s precision. Song places her subjects in calm, time-suspended settings that open space for reflection and honesty. Through her lens, fashion becomes part of a wider narrative about personal growth.
The new season gathers five women whose stories move between art, performance and purpose. Tecla Insolia represents a new generation of Italian artists defining their own voice through music and film. Tan Yuanyuan, the celebrated former principal dancer of the San Francisco Ballet, embodies discipline and endurance built over decades. Chloe Fineman, known for her work on Saturday Night Live, reflects the humor and agility of modern performance. Alissa Jung bridges activism, medicine and filmmaking with an approach that treats art as a form of care. Sheila Atim, the British actor, musician and writer, channels creativity across disciplines, refusing to be confined to one role.
Each episode offers a view into personal transition rather than transformation. Armani continues to treat fashion as context, not conclusion, allowing emotion and experience to take focus. Song’s direction reinforces that balance, capturing movement, silence and light in equal measure.
The new season of Giorgio Armani Crossroads premieres October 22 on the brand’s digital channels, followed by weekly episodes through November 20. Every story is a small study in how women navigate turning points and how elegance can live in the details of real life.
