John Galliano
John Galliano
John Galliano was born in 1960 in Gibraltar and at the age of 6 the Galliano family moved to London.
Galliano had graduated from City and East London College and enrolled at Central Saint Martins and his graduation collection titled 'Les Incroyables'.
This collection was well received.
He graduated in 1983 with a first class degree.
The following year he started his own label and the combination of the reinvention of romantic themes with superb Tailoring made his creations an instant hit.
In 1987 he received the 'British Designer of the Year' award and left for Paris in the early 1990s.
At first, critical success did not translate to financial success and he was almost forced to declare bankruptcy.
However, in 1995 Galliano became the first English man to head a French couture house, when he was put in charge of Givenchy.
Two years later he was granted control of the larger house of Chanel.
