Nobody Liked Dior Couture Without John Galliano
There are biting reviews, and then there are biting reviews, and the collective reaction of the mainstream fashion press to Dior‘s fall 2011 couture collection is most certainly the latter.

Galliano’s Case File Reveals Details About That Night At La Perle
When John Galliano finally has his day in court tomorrow, he’s expected to play the “I was drunk and stupid and I’m really, really sorry” card like it’s the last one in his deck.

Guess Who Was Officially Offered The Dior Job (And Turned It Down)
Amid all the speculation about who would replace John Galliano as the couturier at the house of Dior, people who thought they were on the inside placed bets on everyone from Haider Ackermann to Sarah Burton.

WATCH: John Galliano Gets Heckled In Los Angeles
Is John Galliano done with whatever treatment he sought after being fired from the top post at Christian Dior? A new video of him walking through Los Angeles International Airport would seem to suggest that he’s on the mend, although he certainly doesn’t seem ready to talk about his recovery with reporters yet. A small group of cameramen (like, way smaller than the one at the Paris police station a few weeks ago) surrounded him, one trying awkwardly to ask if he’d “do anything differently” if he were on the board of LVMH.
Big Retailers Pull John Galliano, But Not Dior

“Who will replace John Galliano?” isn’t the only question fashion industry minders and commentators have been trying to answer since the designer was fired from Dior for making drunken, anti-Semitic statements in public. They’ve also been wondering what led Galliano to drink enough to think those statements were OK to make, and whether the fashion industry is responsible for his vices and those of other high-profile designers. There are worries that the fashion industry causes its talent to develop substance abuse problems.
TIME WARP: John Galliano’s Very First Collection For Dior
We’ve done a lot of writing about how John Galliano‘s career at Dior ended, but we thought it would be a good idea to look back at how it all began. At the end of 1996, LVMH executives decided they wanted Galliano to move from Givenchy to the house of Dior.

John Galliano‘s career at Dior hasn’t been over for 24 hours yet, but people are already speculating and making bets on who will replace him. A few names have floated to the top of the heap, but we won’t know for sure who it will be until someone has signed and dated what will undoubtedly be a very lucrative contract.
