The designer himself, who has never denied claims that he is gay, was also outspoken about the way that certain gay men dress.
Mr Armani declared that a homosexual man doesn't need to dress in a camp manner..
He said: 'When homosexuality is exhibited to the extreme to say, "Ah, you know I'm homosexual," - that has nothing to do with me - a man has to be a man.'
He said: 'I don't like muscle boy. Not too much gym! 'I like somebody healthy, somebody solid, who looks after his body but doesn't use his muscles too much.'
And his criticism wasn't only reserved for men.
When questioned on women opting for plastic surgery, the designer described it as 'idiocy... A small breast does not have to become big.'
In the interview, the designer highlighted his appreciation of women with natural beauty, in particular those who chose to age gracefully.
He said: 'I prefer to look at a natural woman. A woman should be courageous to become older, not be desperate to look younger than her age.'
He said: 'When homosexuality is exhibited to the extreme to say, "Ah, you know I'm homosexual," - that has nothing to do with me - a man has to be a man.'
