No longer Creative Director at Christian Dior;

John Galliano was let go from his role as Creative Director at couture house Christian Dior due to making anti-Semitic and racial slurs on multiple occasions. This is extremely unfortunate that such a talented man could udder such comments. Sidney Toledano, Dior’s president and chief executive officer, told WWD that, “We unequivocally condemn the statements made by John Galliano which are in total contradiction to the longstanding core values of  Christian Dior.” Even though I believe Galliano will be missed at DIOR, I agree with their decision in letting him go.

The Dior show will still debut Friday during Paris Fashion Week; cant wait to see the Fall 11 collection!
