By now, we all know that Dior has dismissed Galliano following his drunken outburst of anti-Semitic remarks in La Perle Cafe, Paris. Just days before Paris Fashion Week. I, for one, was waiting to see his 'last' collection for Dior. I was slightly disappointed because I was expecting more from him. Alas! And the last couture show Galliano did for Dior also fell a little short on the wow factor so perhaps this is goodbye? But having said that, I still have tremendous respect for his talent, creative genius, extraordinary showmanship and vision.
Let's put it this way - whilst the remarks were utterly disgraceful, I don't think the issue would become this scandalous if he's just another average Joe, drunk as a skunk in a cafe. I have had nastier things said to me by those homeless drunks/druggies on the streets. I do feel for Galliano, the poor man was so drunk he was slurring.

| Romantic bohemian in brilliant colours | |
 |
| One of my fav pieces from this collection - check out the surface technique |
 |
| Tasteful combo even with knicker-style shorts, knee-high boots with britches and crazy fur |
 |
| Lightness and romantically feminine in Directoire's influence |
 |
| One of my fav piece - exquisite black Chantilly |
 |
| Too sweet for me but a simple jacket with frilled edges is all I need this winter |
 |
| Almost like something that I would expect from Frida Giannini |
Anyway, Galliano, I will keep a lookout for your comeback, because I still respect your immense talent and creative genius
