'He stayed at the top of the fashion world for so long, and never sold out'

Tributes have been paid to the legendary fashion designer Giorgio Armani who has died at the age of 91. Lady Helen Taylor, a cousin of the late Queen Elizabeth II, became something of a muse and a fashion ambassador for Armani. Speaking to Newshour's James Menendez, she reflects on her friendship with the Italian designer, beginning with when they first met.
