I hate to sound rude but honestly,you seem to have a very disillusioned idea of what having a spirit or soul is. This is Riccardo. Obviously you never seen Tisci's work before Givenchy but this is very much who he is and always has been thus far. You equate Galliano with having a spirit but I hate to burst your bubble but his work is nothing more than gimmicks and shocking people....that's not having a spirit.
So agreed - I was unimpressed with Galliano this season, and yet everyone seemed to be going crazy over him.
