Bruce Wayne gets an Armani makeover

Nothing but the best will do for Batman, that's for sure. He's got the Batmobile for Pete's sake, and his alter ego, Bruce Wayne lives in complete luxury. And so, it's only fitting that Bruce (played by Christian Bale) will be sporting Giorgio Armani Hand Made-to-Measure throughout the highly anticipated Batman flick, The Dark Knight.

Also fitting is the fact that Armani will be designing for a superhero, seeing as how last May he chaired the New York Metropolitan Museum of Art's exhibition, Superheroes: Fashion and Fantasy. Armani acknowledges that this line is the perfect choice for Batman's less rubber-ensconced side, saying, "As a Giorgio Armani Hand Made-to-Measure client, Bruce Wayne is demonstrating his status as a discriminating and sophisticated connoisseur of fine fashion, while also showing he has individual taste." Bale absolutely owns this look, which is made up of single-breasted, three-button suits, single-breasted tuxedos and black wool coats (all with the customized label "Giorgio Armani for Bruce Wayne). To create just the right look, Armani worked with costume designer Lindy Hemming, who "wanted an expensively elegant tailored look to contrast with [Bruce Wayne's] Batman persona."

This arrangement has worked out well for everyone -- Bale looks phenomenal as Bruce Wayne, and Armani is using a still from the movie as a visual for a major Armani ad campaign. Oh, and we get to look at him. Yep, everybody wins.
