The opening of the shop will bring eight new jobs to the village.
The new store, which will be situated next to Polo Ralph Lauren, follow the opening of 11 new stores at Braintree Village last year, including Timberland, Calvin Klein and Crew Clothing Company.
Braintree Village Centre Director Josef O’Sullivan commented: “To be welcoming a brand like Armani to Braintree Village as we open our doors in line with Government guidelines on 12th April is something we’re incredibly proud of.
"We have no doubt that our guests will love our new addition and we look forward to welcoming everyone back safely."
