John Galliano is working silently in the Paris studio with his friend and ally, the master milliner Stephen Jones. The designer is looking at the arc of a silhouette, the drape of a skirt and the tilt of a hat: 'I often work through a mirror for most of my decisions and I always see Stephen's reflection,' says Galliano. 'He is reading my every nuance. He is studying my face. I don't need to say anything - he can read my mind'." - From the essay by Suzy Menkes. Stephen Jones is one of the world's most talented and distinguished milliners. This exquisitely illustrated monograph is the first to examine his illustrious career and famous collaborations. Including photographs from private collections and museums, the book focuses on a variety of aspects of his work, from his collaborations with Boy George, John Galliano and Thierry Mugler to his work with photographers Bruce Weber and Nick Knight.

The five-year-old award, which is presented every year at the GWAND fashion festival in Lucerne, Switzerland, is one of the industry's most prestigious and lucrative, affording the winner 100,000 Euros which is funnelled into a carefully devised business plan by a team of financial advisors. "I'm so surprised, so happy, thank you," said ex-Galliano assistant Ackermann, whose collection of edgily glamorous deconstructed jersey pieces, some featuring delicate smocking and sequinned detailing, soft leather shorts and chic sparkly vests put him ahead of the game. The 33-year-old Colombian-born, Antwerp-trained designer, who launched his label in February 2002 before being hand-picked to create a collection for Ruffo as part of their Research initiative, was chosen by a high fashion panel including Suzy Menkes and Vogue's own Harriet Quick. "Ackermann has a chic moody aesthetic typical of Antwerp- trained designers and a great skill in draping of jersey, suede and leather," said Quick.

  • Altman on Jacobs on Dior: Fashion Through Fractals and Archives
    Streetnotes (2012) 20: 90-110 90 ISSN: 2159-2926 Altman on Jacobs on Dior: Fashion Through Fractals and Archives J. Emmanuel Raymundo Abstract On February 25, 2011, the fashion luxury company Christian Dior suspended John Galliano, who had been its creative director since 1996, after his arrest over making anti-Semitic remarks at a Paris bar. Quickly following his suspension, a video from December 2010 was distributed showing Galliano hurling anti-Semitic invectives at several bar patrons. On March 1, 2011, Dior fired Galliano. At stake in the considerable interest and speculations regarding who takes over at Dior is control of a €24.6B business empire and access to a historic couturier’s archive. In this sense, its designer will influence the label’s “books” both financial and what will be stored in its physical repository as part of the brand’s creative and artistic repertoire. Despite fashion’s apparent ubiquity, the anticipation surrounding who takes over at Dior is proof that despite fashion’s professed democratization, there still exists a fashion hierarchy with Dior occupying its upper echelon. Since Galliano’s dismissal, fashion insiders have moved from breathlessly feverish in their speculations to desperately calling out for relief in the face of an unexpectedly drawn-out waiting game that is now over a year old and otherwise an eternity in fashion’s hyper accelerated production cycle. To purposely counter fashion’s accelerated internal clock, the purpose of this commentary is to keep fashion in a reflective state rather than a reflexive stance and uses fashion on film, and specifically Robert Altman’s Prêt-à-Porter (1994), to give cultural and historical context to all the online speculation and chatter.

  • MAISON MARGIELA: at Paris Couture, Digital Decadence And
    25/1/2019 At Paris Couture, Digital Decadence and Tradition | Fashion Show Review, Multiple, Haute Couture - Spring 2019 | BoF HAUTE COUTURE - SPRING 2019 At Paris Couture, Digital Decadence and Tradition BY ANGELO FLACCAVENTO JANUARY 24, 2019 12:43 Valentino’s Pierpaolo Piccioli and Margiela’s John Galliano were the undisputed winners of the season, one classic, the other hyper-modern, reports Angelo Flaccavento. PARIS, France — Can couture be modern? The question arises each season and the answers are almost as many as the designers and houses that are part of the calendar. Couture is both an anachronism, completely at odds with the present time, and yet probably the only place left in the modern luxury business where fashion can still produce radically progressive, soulful fantasies. This tension makes for fascinating results. And there was lots of dream-making in the couture week which closed in Paris on Thursday: a crescendo that started with the Dior circus on Monday, passed through Chanel's jolly villa affair on Tuesday and took off on Wednesday with the equally extreme, but almost diametrically opposed visions of Valentino’s Pierpaolo Piccioli and Maison Margiela’s John Galliano, who were the undisputed winners of the season. In brief, the offering was festive, indulgent and at times escapist; full of decadence of every sort. It is not surprising: dire, divisive times like ours call for outbursts of joy and excess, for a frenzied dance on the edge of the abyss. If the world as we know it is rotting, why not front the debacle with shimmer and glamour instead of gloom and doom? If even a master of luxurious restraint such as Giorgio Armani embraces out-there, assertive opulence you have to take notice.

  • Christian Dior Why Would Bernard Arnault Invest
    A work project, presented as part of the requirements for the Award of a Master Degree in International Finance from the NOVA – School of Business and Economics CHRISTIAN DIOR WHY WOULD BERNARD ARNAULT INVEST BILLIONS ON A NAME HE ALREADY HOLDS? CAROLINA MARQUES BARREIROS – 4134 / 24015 A Project carried out on the Master in Finance Program, under the supervision of: Paulo Pinho January 2019 Tuesday, April 25th 2017i. Bernard Arnault decided to go shopping. On the menu, a double operation that aims to simplify the ties that unite the group LVMH (Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton), Christian Dior and its owner Bernard Arnault. The first transaction consists of an offer worth about €12.1 billion from the holding company controlled by Arnault Family Group to take over of the remaining 25.9% stake Christian Dior. The second one on the strengthening of LVMH group through the acquisition of the Christian Dior Couture for €6.5 billionii. However, a question remains: why would Bernard Arnault invest billions on a name he already holds? LVMH “The LVMH group is the world’s leading luxury goods company, the result of successive alliances among companies that, from generation to generation, have successfully combined traditions of excellence and creative passion with a cosmopolitan flair and a spirit of conquest.” - LVMH websiteiii Born out of the merger of Louis Vuitton and the Moët Hennessy group in 1987, the LVMH group led by Bernard Arnault is the world’s largest luxury conglomerate in terms of turnover (Exhibit 1).

  • Dossier De Presse Expo Dior
    EXPOSITION DIOR musée du président Jacques Chirac 1er février – 15 avril 2010 Dior, la passion créatrice L’exposition Dior présentée au musée du président Jacques Chirac est composée d’une trentaine de robes de haute couture des années 1947 à 1951 (créées par Christian Dior) et 1997 à 2009 (créées par John Galliano). Parmi elles figurent notamment la robe Ciao Ci San (2007) de l’affiche, une robe 2008 portée par Marion Cotillard et la robe 2009 portée par Monica Bellucci au Festival de Cannes. L’exposition comprend également une douzaine de flacons et coffrets de parfum, des croquis de Christian Dior et des photos de grands photographes de mode. La scénographie de l’exposition est due à René Bouchara Design. L’exposition a été conçue par huit collaborateurs de la maison Christian Dior : Olivier Bialobos, Frédéric Bourdelier, Daphné Catroux, Gérald Chevalier, Barbara Jeauffroy-Mairet, Philippe Le Moult, Vincent Leret et Soizic Pfaff. Le musée Christian Dior à Granville a aimablement participé à l'exposition. Un catalogue produit par le musée accompagne l’exposition. Il a été réalisé par la maison Christian Dior, avec des textes de Nathalie Fraser, Vincent Leret et Soizic Pfaff. En voici quelques extraits. LE FONDATEUR Christian Dior naît le 21 janvier 1905 à Granville, en Normandie, dans une famille bourgeoise aisée qui déménage à Paris lorsqu’il a cinq ans. Ses parents imaginent pour lui une carrière de diplomate ; il abandonne donc son rêve de devenir architecte et s’inscrit à Sciences Po. Mais ce n’est qu’une parade : le jeune homme, habitué des milieux artistiques, ouvre en 1928 avec des amis une première galerie d’art contemporain, où il expose le travail de Georges Braque, Fernand Léger, Maurice Utrillo, Aristide Maillol, Raoul Dufy, et de proches comme Max Jacob, Léonor Fini, Salvador Dali et Christian Bérard.

HOUSE: A COMBAT FOR COUTURE COMMAND OF LUXURY LABELS Carly Elizabeth Souther* ABSTRACT As an industry that thrives on-rather than succumbs to- adversity, the couture corporate world demands innovation and encourages risks. When combined with successful marketing and savvy business practices, these risks can result in large payoffs, which exist, primarily, due to the nature of the global fashion market.' Endless consumption drives the market, rewarding fashion houses that cater to current trends with top-line growth and damning those whom fail to suffer decreased net earnings. In order to remain a viable player in the fashion industry, the house must have the resources to market and manufacture the product in a timely manner, as well as incur the costs if a collection is poorly received.

In 1996, Galliano was appointed Creative Director of Christian Dior. He created what became known as “Anything Goes” by revamping the entire style of Dior (New York Fashion, 2011). In January of 2009, he received France’s highest honor as he was made a Chevalier in the French Legion of Honour (Vogue, 2008). John Galliano is a highly respected and highly successful figure in the fashion industry. In Late February of this year, Galliano was sitting in a bar in Paris. A local French couple recognized him and a conversation between them began. From this point on, the reports differ. One eyewitness claims that Galliano tried to say “Cheers” to the couple and they insulted him. Another account is that they tried to talk to him and he suddenly began to spew anti-Semitic comments at them. A few days later a video of a December 2010 incidence of Galliano making anti-semitic remarks was released to a British tabloid. In the video Galliano said that he loved Hitler and that if he were alive today, “you would all be gassed.” “You would all be dead!” He then called them ugly.
