John Galliano - Designer

[Lola701]

Please tell me that the Carhartt piece(s) also say "Sacai" on the inside label.

Anyways, back to Galliano.

People online really seem to hate this venture w/ Zara, and I can't help but ask, "Why?" (Not like I bothered to read much into this.) To me, this sounds like a temp-job....just something to keep him occupied for the time being, and still bring in some cash. So I say "More power to him" if this if what he's doing next. This isn't the end of his world, I hope.

No unfortunately. It’s regular Carhartt WIP from the men’s side.
I only have 1 item from the Sacai collection from the very 1st one, a knitted ice blue chore jacket.

I think sometimes, with the reactions, there’s a kind of reverse classicism.
You would see that most people criticizing it online are wearing fast fashion too.
And the reactions are always so dramatic: RIP GALLIANO! Fashion is dead!

They actually don’t realize how much it’s almost surreal that such a big brand actually offers the center stage to Galliano after everything that happened.

I mean three years ago, the idea of a Met Gala about him was met with a bit of caution.

Now his work will be available everywhere and he is back in the mainstream conversation. It’s a miracle in itself.

And I’m sure people will buy it. 2 years contract with 2 collections a year? Come on! They won’t pass that!
