Benito Skinner showed up to the Giorgio Armani Spring/Summer 2026 menswear show dressed like a man who definitely owns at least one villa. Fully embracing the role of a Giorgio Man—refined, relaxed, and quietly self-assured—the Overcompensating actor opted for a brown double-breasted vest paired with matching single-pleat trousers, a breezy white linen shirt, and vintage leather loafers. All Giorgio Armani, of course. He topped it off with a brown La Prima Soft bag in nappa leather (the exact shade is not even available online, so don’t ask). “The look of my damn dreams!!” he declared, citing inspiration from Aldo Fallai’s legendary Armani imagery from the ’80s and ’90s.
Once inside the show, which offered a mix of breezy silhouettes and painterly palettes, Benito texted his Overcompensating co-star Mary Beth Barone from the front row, fell in love with a green sweater, and emotionally unraveled during a visit to the Armani/Silos couture retrospective. In his words: “I got goosebumps, so yep—I’m gay!!”
