What does the world think of Dior without John Galliano

As a firm fan of John Galliano, I am extraordinarily upset about the new designer in the house. The collections appears to be purposively subdued. There is not such a thing about designer characters here, beautiful dresses and a lot of class. But appears to be the colourful energy, and stregth had taken out from Galliano had vanished into thin air overnite. It is very sorrowful to see with all these years, what Galliano had nurtured and mastered, is being wiped out suddenly. One might disagreed that the customers are hankering for something classic. But do they? They can go to Valentino for that. One might say the old true for the original Dior can come back and spend some hard money now. After all that loud fashion is gone. No matter how you look at it, the new collection had dig out the repository, and just literally copied all of the look there is. Check out this check coat on the right, um it’s literally like this coat shu pei is wearing here.

How about this bustier dress? Except that it’s a more risque version, there is hardly any difference to me here. Some might argued that When John Galliano was in power, he did a lot of collection that was a note from the past.

But he did with tongue in cheek. It was purposively reference to the past, so you can marvel at his showmanship. Yes it might be a similar look, nevertheless it is done with so much other research reference on top of it, the final results often is similar to a vintage came from a space ship.

What we see here, the design team Bill Gaytten leads looks like they had worked for Valentino. I am also a big fan of Valentino, they have integrity, since he believes in timeless elegance in women, he would come up with pretty, masterful dresses for the ladies who lunches year after year. Hats off to the master, it must take a lot of courage to believe in something you love, regardless the fashion.

My final word is, I am mourning for John Galliano, Dior would never be the same. Like the day when Tom Ford step down, Gucci had never been the same. These statues like designers are like star dust. Rare and mesmerizing.

Here is a very informative article with what all the others thinks about the show.
