John Galliano at his Show Photo From Style.com |
After seeing the video, Natalie Portman, who is the face of the labels Miss Dior Cherie perfume, said that she was "deeply shocked and disgusted by the video", and that she "will not be associated with Mr. Galliano in any way", and quickly replaced her Dior Couture gown, for a plum Rodarte at this years Oscar Awards.
News of John Galliano's termination broke this morning and has many people wondering how the show will take place in his absence. Scheduled for this Friday, the show will go on, just without hi signature rock star final bow.
LVMH's (the luxury goods conglomerate that owns Dior) decision to fire Galliano comes as no surprise, with them stating "We unequivocally condemn the statements made by John Galliano",last year they had a similar scandal with the heir to the Guerlain cosmetics company. This all begs the question, who will take Galliano's place at the storied house? Stefano Pilati from YSL? Hedi Slimane? He already has history at Dior, designing their menswear for years... Any ideas? Post them in the comments!
John, John, John....
