So long Galliano...

The once great John Galliano.... British Designer of the Year 1987, 1994, 1995 and 1997, the first British designer to head a French haute couture house in 1995 (Givenchy), awarded CBE in 2001, designs a dozen collections a year, a genius in haute couture (did you see his designs for Fall 2010 Couture based on tulips... amazing!!!!) but now SACKED & gone to a rehabilitation facility in Arizona for alcohol problems.


Dior presented its last and final collection by John Galliano on Tuesday. There was much anticipation as to who would take the final bow at the end of the show since his anti Jewish comments made in a Paris bar. The answer - Dior's atelier team - the seamstresses, tailors and embroiders who brought Galliano's sketches to life.

Galliano's replace has not yet been named but according to speculation, possibly Riccardo Tisci, Haider Ackermann or Hedi Slimane?


Get well soon John.... hope you will be back again....
