As we mentioned yesterday, John Galliano is currently over here to collect an award from the Savannah College of Art, as well as to present his spring/summer ’09 cruise collection for Christian Dior. Last night, the designer took to the catwalk at Gustavino’s in New York wearing his usual outlandish dress to close a show that dazzled in colours, embellishments and animal prints. But was it just a rehashing of his last cruise collection?

After presenting his cruise collection for Christian Dior tonight in New York, designer John Galliano is headed to a whole other culture – the south.
In his first visit to Savannah, Georgia Galliano will be accepting the André Leon Talley Lifetime Achievement Award at the Savannah College of Art and Design.
Who better to fully appreciate the drama of Galliano’s designs and handle his full-on ball gowns than a southern belle? We can easily see one or two of his creations on Scarlett O’Hara.
For more fact and less fiction on the visit, keep reading.

Isabelle over at Catwalk Queen says “There’s nothing guaranteed to lift my spirits more than a picture of the wide-eyed Masha, except maybe a picture of the wide-eyed Masha with eye make-up that makes her peepers even bigger!” It seems the “dead socialite” look was alive and rocking at the Christian Dior fall 08 show in Paris. Galliano hemmed in his usual kookyness to produce a retro slice of psychedelia. For more, see the whole story here.
And check out the Vivienne Westwood show here.

John Galliano’s spring haute couture collection for Christian Dior spoke volumes. Volume in taffeta and satin bunched, swagged, bustled and draped. And volume in bright, saturated, pastel and jewel-tone colors.
The collection was full of drama with oversized toppers that resembled objets d’art more than hats, painterly prints, paillettes and embroidery. Gone was the delicacy and old-fashioned femininity of Galliano’s fall collection. Instead of exaggerated waists, caricatures of silhouettes gone by, proportions were blown out in the opposite direction, ballooning away from the body with a structure belying the craftsmanship of the collection.

New York Fashion Week - Gossip

The Christian Dior ready-to-wear spring 2008 collection was smokin’! John Galliano celebrated the 60th Anniversary of Christian Dior with steamy hot ’20s through ’40s-themed designs depicting all the styles he’s created throughout his 10-year career with Dior. Set to the beat of Sting’s “Englishman in New York” as the perfect ‘mood’ music, Galliano debuted with his renowned pant suit in the form of a three-piece pin-stripe with a chic hardware-accented baret. His other designs primarily consisted of trench coats, zebra and leopard print, leaf patterned pencil skirt sets, and pagoda-shouldered renditions of his Madame Butterfly collection. And oh how we loved the accessories galore! Big, fabulous handbags, dazzling jewelry, strappy heels, and of course, sexy vintage-inspired hats. Check out more photos from the show after the jump.
