John Galliano's dismissal by Christian Dior leaves one of the most prestigious roles in fashion suddenly vacant. The man making the decision about his replacement is Bernard Arnault, the chief executive of LVMH, which owns Dior.
The frontrunner is thought to be the 36-year-old Italian designer Riccardo Tisci, who has won increasing acclaim over the past five years designing Givenchy, another LVMH brand. Tisci is well connected in the Paris fashion world, with close ties to French Vogue.
Were Tisci to land the role, it would be a case of history repeating itself: Galliano was at Givenchy before getting the Dior job.
All that anti-semitism swearing on Gallianos part was appalling...
ReplyDeleteAppalling...yet at the same time seemingly expected from a genius like himself.

ReplyDeleteso sad about galliano...
ReplyDeleteI think it is terrible behaviour from him but it is also sad that two girls are obviously getting great pleasure out of his certain misfortune. You can hear them laughing in the background. Really demonstrates the pressure celebrities are under to keep their guard up at all times!!
