T H E A T R I C A L and then some!





While in school, in the early 80's, Galliano became a dresser for the National Theatre. He received some recognition and was given a window at Browns. In the 90's he worked for Givenchy and then onto The house of Dior. It wasn't all that easy...this is just a three sentence bio. He met with alot of resistance and struggles.

Always theatrically inspired, his designs make for exciting runway!! Fall 2009 is quite Mongolian in theme with a Russian influence. If I remember my history correctly Mongolia was a battlefield in the 20's when White Russians fled from Russia to Mongolia. Mongolia struggled for independence. Succeeded finally.
