Ladies, gird your loins.

Not one to let being 76 years old cramp his style, designer Giorgio Armani hit the Spanish coast in -- brace yourself -- a white Speedo, the Daily Mirror reports.

And while we'll give the man props for his deep tan and surprisingly svelte body, the saggy briefs did him no favors.

"He's in good nick for his age but those swimming pants did nothing for him," an onlooker told the paper.

"They're enough to make grown men wince."

They're not the only ones.

What's next, Giorgio? Replacing Cristiano Ronaldo in your underwear campaigns? Perish the thought.

Meanwhile, Ed Westwick is also partial to Speedos.

Ewwww! That is gross. Sagging, old man. It is funny how people are in denial when getting older or OLD!

I'll bet you don't look half as good and you're probably less than half his age. He looks good for "76"!!!

Actually, he's pretty "buff" considering his age. Why are Americans such prudes about the human body? I've seen men much younger than he is look much worse on the beach. You must be a "kid" and think everyone over 45 should quit trying to go out in public in a swimsuit.

You know, I think all people who go swimming should wear what they want and long as they are somewhat covered up. Who cares if they are not the skinny or muscular person on the beach. They are not there for you, they are there for themselves. They are with family or friends on an outing at the beach. If you don't like it leave the beach. I don't care if they are 1 or 100. Enjoy yourselves. These people who complain will be old someday too. Hopefully, someone will complain about them and they will remember their own attitude when they were young. MIND YOUR OWN DAMN BUSINESS!

No one looks good in speedos. Not even young buff guys.

Are you kidding. What is sagging? Just his private parts and that is normal. There is nothing gross about this man. Gross is when obese people wear clothes that are to tight or they are in bad taste. He looks great.

if he wore a speedo that had some elastic in it he could probably pull it off- that is probably 10 years old and he is just sagging out of it like a old diaper- yuck- he is in great shape though he just needs to buy a new bathing suit.

I think he looks great! Looks a lot better than a lot of younger men I have seen. Id rather see him in a baggy speedo than a skin tight one, thats if you have to wear a speedo at all. When are men going to get it...speedos are out! Leave something to the imagination. Reminds me of Susan Lucci in a bikini....sure she looked good but could have looked GREAT in a one piece. Less is not always more.

You guys got it all wrong! I think he's in great shape, and the "speedo" does him justice.. Not too loose, not too tight -- just right -- kind of leaving a bit to the imagination!..... Caio, Georgio!

IN RE: TO THE ELDERLY DRESSING THEIR AGE: I COULD NOT AGREE WITH YOU MORE BUT WILL ALSO ADD THAT WOMEN WHO ARE MOMS NEED TO DO THE SAME THING AND NOT ROMP AROUND LIKE KIDS IN DIAPERS--NUDE IS GOOD FOR THE SHOWER

Georgio:

Love the LOOK of your WAY OVERPRICED clothing lines, but those speedos have GOT TO GO! They are bad on a 20 year old. They are frightening on anyone over 21.

(I must say, though, for his age, he looks quite amazing. How 'bout we forgive him the speedo in return for a lower price point on his off the rack?)

Maybe the speedos are sagging because he just got out of the water. You know how water will do that to your suit. I think he is still a handsome man that keeps in shape.

Whether you like it or not, in Europe most men wear speedos (small male bathing suits). It's the culture. Armani does look good at 76. Try to find an american man without a gut hanging over - speedo or bermuda short. Now that's gross.

His body is fine for his age, but as most people here correctly said--that is the absolutely wrong swim suit for him. He probably, no doubt, thinks he looks great in it. No, not at all.
