I hope he's not severely injured. What happened to him?

FWD didn't mention anything else. Its still developing, as my post says above. We might as well just continue to be on the look out.

my poor John

I wonder what happened....I hope it's not serious.

 

[Diorling]

I hope it's not serious either, he'd better be able to finish up the HC collection. What could have happened? Maybe he broke his leg or something, he does jog like 6 miles everyday...

 

[arlekindearrabal]

probably had a wild night hope its nothing too serious

 

[Kalista]

I'm sure it's nothing too serious. There would probably be a lot more information if it was. Well, fingers crossed anyway...

 

[Label Basher]

I really want to know what happened. Poor John. I really wanted him to give it to her.

But can I just ask why David Bowie. I know he's David Bowie but why not Karl or Marc or Stella or Alexander or even Donatella. I'm sure they could have got someone in fashion who Kate has worked a lot with in the past considering this award is way overdue.

as long as his hands and brain are ok !! he cans till design. I find it a bit odd the lack of information i hope hes ok !!

 

[yourbestfriend]

Bowie to replace injured Galliano at CFDA

NEW YORK: Thursday, June 02, 2005

As The Daily first told you, John Galliano, who was set to present Kate Moss with her fashion influence award at Monday night’s CFDA gala, has had to bow out due to an injury he sustained at home. According to Christian Dior’s worldwide communications director, the flamboyant designer was cut in several places on his body when a glass door shattered.



Moss will instead be fêted by a not-so-bad alternative presenter: David Bowie. But The Daily hears that Moss will remain faithful to her chum, Galliano, by wearing Dior to the gala. In addition, Liev Schreiber will present the Menswear Designer of the Year award and Anderson Cooper, the Lifetime Achievement Award to Diane von Furstenberg, proving that perhaps these fashion-forward men will steal some of the style spotlight come June 6.



And as for the women of fashion, The Daily has learned that Behnaz Sarafpour—nominated for Swarovski’s Perry Ellis Award for Emerging Talent in womenswear—will be attending the star-studded awards gala with not one, but two, lovely ladies at either side: Elite model Amanda Hearst and actress Claire Danes, who’s known to be one of Zac Posen’s muses. Also look for Bernadette Peters, who is expected to wear a short black cocktail dress by Donna Karan as she arrives with CFDA president Stan Herman.



And while she may not be receiving any awards for her style—yet—Glenda Bailey will kick things off Harper’s Bazaar-style when she hosts a bash this Sunday night for her good friend, Lanvin designer and CFDA International Award recipient, Alber Elbaz, at the 6,000 square foot nightclub, Show. With its three levels, accommodations for 500, and mix of decor influences from the Victorian era, 19th-century Paris, Weimar Germany cabarets, and American vaudeville, it’s the perfect setting for the lovable, huggable Elbaz and his number one fan.
