The biography of John Galliano

The rise and falls of Galliano: a look in the career of the most mysterious designer was born under the name of Juan Carlos Antonio Galia-Gilienne, he became known as one of the most mysterious designers of his generation. Let's analyze the phenomenon of the enigmatical genius in more detail! Starting his creative path by a student in London at the prestigious school of Central Saint Martins, Galliano immediately attracted attention with his experiments and a provocative view of fashion.

His first collection, Les Incroyables, inspired by the French Revolution, became a symbolic, carrying with him the legacy of the movement of deconstruction. She attracted universal attention, but instead of working with legendary fashion houses, Galliano decided to establish his own brand. He created avant -garde things with historical connotation, quickly gaining a reputation among the British fashionable elite.

Despite the recognition of the critics, the Galliano brand encountered financial difficulties, and its designs, although innovative, were not entirely suitable for everyday use. On the verge of bankruptcy, Anna Wintour and Andre Leon Talls, who spoke in support of the designer, intervened, providing him with financing and assistance in the move to Paris. His period in Givenchy was short, but decisive, and his couture collection of the year impressed the world with a mix of styles of the 18th century with a cabaret of the 19th.

After a successful period in Givenchy, Galliano moved to Dior, where, despite the doubts of experienced figures of the French industry, he was able to triple the coup with his bold and technically skillful approach. The take -off and fall of the genius Galliano under the pressure of a heavy schedule, Galliano, which was supposed to maneuver between the direction of his own brand and crazy popularity, succumbed to stress.

He began to drown in alcohol and drugs, which led to destructive consequences for his health and career. In the year, he ran into a scandal due to drunken outputs and anti-Semitic statements. This episode led to his arrest and serious charges of France, which led to his dismissal from Lent in Dior and from his own brand, partially owned by LVMH. Such a turn of events was a shock to the industry, and Galliano lost his career and prestige.

After rehabilitation, he remained in the shade for three years, with the exception of the creation of a wedding dress for Kate Moss in the year. Return to the podium return to the industry occurred again thanks to the support of Anna Wintour. On the request of the editor, Oscar de la Renta invited Galliano to his studio in New York to prepare the Autumn Ready-to-Wear collection, presented at New York Fashion Week.

Galliano held in the background, remaining in the shade, but the show was well accepted, recalling his time in Dior with drapery and hypertrophied hips. Despite the fact that some detached its importance, this collection turned out to be decisive for Galliano returning to the world of fashion. Against this background, Galliano began to openly talk about the events of the year, which became an important stage in his path to forgiveness from the industry and colleagues.

Removing masks in Maison Margiela, a mysterious designer returned in the year, becoming the creative director of Maison Margiela. This event became a new page in the history of the fashion house, marked by the period of innovation and experiments. His return to the catwalk was marked by the show of the collection in red tones, which caused universal delight. Unlike his intense experience in Dior, his role in Maison Margiela shows him more calm, close to reality.

Moreover, there is information that the income of the house has increased from the moment of its arrival - thanks to Galliano, the brand turned to the development of categories of goods that are better sold and bring excellent profit. For example, accessories and perfumes. Returning at present, we understand that Galliano's success was completely captured by the Maison Margiela brand, so John’s position was untouched as a creative director.

When he began to work in Maison Margiela, the founder of the house advised him to “make his house”, the Council, which Galliano took to heart, while maintaining a bold look at innovation. For example, for the ARTISANAL collection, Galliano presented the medieval Gothic story about two in love on the run, presenting a new motive - Sandstorming. He invited Amber Valett and Anna Cleveland to show his long -standing models, returning everyone to the start of his career.

The Fashion Theater Theater ending of the High Fashion Week in Paris was in the power of the virtuoso display of Maison Margiela. John Galliano, launched his fairy -tale drama under the bridge of Alexander III, magically plunging us into the atmosphere of old Paris. Under the arches of the improvisational bridge, the night life of the city came to life - culourh institutions, flickering lights and a motley audience.

The main emphasis and nails of the program is Gwendolin Christie. The British star, who became famous for the role of Brienne Tart in the “Game of Thrones”, embodied the inspiration of the legendary fashion designer John Galliano, who gave the couture collection of the spring-summer character, inspired by the masterpieces of Brassai.The show has become a real work of art, transferring us to the emotional world, where reality is intertwined with imagination, romance and eroticism.

Gwendolin, in the image of the final show, delighted the audience in a snow -white outfit emphasized by an elegant blue corset, creating an amazing final chord of this unique event in the fashion world. The nakedness and “transparency”, wrapped in perfectly tailored coats, corsets on a naked body, bandaged legs and torn tights, crazy hats and jackets with active shoulders - this was definitely more Galliano than margins, but the effect did not become less stunning.

The life of John Galliano resembles a real fashionable saga. Today, again shining in the chair of the creative director, he continues to surprise the world with his unique aesthetics and bold experiments. Galliano is not just a designer, but a real artist who left an indescribable trace in the history of fashion. His story serves as a reminder that in art, as in life, even after the most difficult trials, you can find inspiration, the strength to rise and create something truly great.
