John Galliano (born 1960, in
Gibraltar) is a British fashion designer.
Galliano moved to London as
a child and in 1984 graduated in design in the St.
Martin's School of Arts, with a collection inspired
by the French Revolution. Following that, he started
his own label and began his career as a fashion designer
that granted him the award of British designer of
the year in 1987. In the 1990s, Galliano moved to
Paris and in 1995 he was appointed designer of Givenchy.
His first collection for the traditional fashion label
was marked by an irreverent style that shocked the
fashion world. Two years later, Galliano left Givenchy
to Alexander McQueen and began to work in Christian
Dior, where he continued his extravagant trends.
