John Galliano turns 60 while enjoys sweet moment in his career

Description

Paris (France), Nov 27 (EFE), (Camera: María D. Valderrama.- British designer John Galliano will turn 60 on Saturday far away from the controversies that a decade ago were about to cost him his career. Focused on the haute couture house of Belgian Martin Margiela, the Galliano now aspires to achieve quiet success. SOUNDBITES OF ALEXANDRE SAMSON, DIRECTOR OF HAUTE COUTURE AND CONTEMPORARY FASHION AT THE PALAIS GALLIERA: "It is our duty as a museum to remember, without erasing the atrocious event towards the Jewish community, that John Galliano is a great creator, someone who has had an exceptional sense of haute couture in his prêt-à-porter. We have lucky enough to keep Galliano's pieces that are authentic works of art, of the work of diagonal cuts. He is someone who loves Parisian haute couture of the 30s, something that he shows in his technical know-how. Like a 95' dress cut in diagonal without openings, there are no zippers, everything goes diagonally." "Galliano has exceptional media attraction." "He represents the end of a cycle, the absolute apogee and destruction. Alexander McQueen and he... It is surprising to what extent their careers are linked. Galliano is a bit older, but they expressed themselves at the same moment, they both represent the end of a cycle.""It was addiction in the case of Galliano and the decline to a quite bad state and, in the case of McQueen, suicide. We reached the end of an era and, from that moment, the notion of star creator was over. The fall of Galliano was a shock to everyone in the industry."
