Galliano is a genius. Regardless of whether people think this is cultural appropriation or not, you can’t say it’s not gorgeous. Many designers have done a take on Japanese kimono, Gaultier did it as well, even McQueen

Absolutely! And cultural appropriation is a another way to divide people! 🤑🤮
I think Japanese fashion and Japanese art has been a huge influence on Galliano throughout his entire career, it crops up in so many of his collections. Even now he’s working for Margiela you can see the influence in almost every collection. He definitely uses the influences from a place of respect and admiration and his knowledge of the techniques is incredible. I can see why, Japanese fashion and cultural history is incredibly distinctive and very chic a lot of the time. Nobody does minimalism with such refinement like the Japanese.
This collection makes me cry, the level of details, respect and research is huge. Galliano since ever has been inspired by Japan and its culture, even in his actual work for Margiela. Galliano’s style it’s a combination of classic and modern just like Japan.

That Collection was supreme, exquisite, delicate. Pure art in the haute couture way. It was one of the many reasons I decided travel Japan and beign in Japan I totally understood the filling of perfection that gave me the first time I watched it. It´s one of the top 5 Haute Couture collections that gets me emotional!
No one does it like John Gallino. Dior needs to hire him back, Such talent. Thank you so much for this video.

Why should he go back when they betrayed him so? They didn’t stand by him when he needed them most, and in fact made things much worse. Now look what they’ve come to. Because they did not value the individual.

I know. Breathtaking, isn't it? Your emotions were EXACTLY the same as mine. I was completely overwhelmed that clothing like this even existed! This is my absolute FAVORITE Dior collection of all time, hands down. It's so elegant, so unique, SO STUNNING, it nearly brings tears to my eyes. Galliano is a fashion genius, and think this was the pinnacle. Can you even imagine the _time_ and HAND stitching it took to complete this collection???
@castoputa3 жыл бұрын
The art in sewing reached its pinnacle with the combination of John Galliano and the Dior Haute Couture ateliers, they research the collection for a year or more and go incredibly deep into aspects of them you’d never come across normally, thank you so much for this reaction, it’s so nice to hear even more information on these looks even all these years later. Nothing in this entire show is less than it looks, thousands of hours are spent working on them, just the embroideries even.

I can't believe I've never seen this before....I am utterly speechless! John Galliano is a Genius on every level when it comes to Haute Couture and this collection is the proof of it. His level of creativity and detail with the Japanese Geisha inspiration mixed with classic Dior silhouettes taken to a level I honestly don't know that I've ever seen anything quite so exquisite.

We may not like John Galliano after his antisemitism comments, but we cant denied he transformed Dior and made it relevant in fashion again, Raf Simons was close to him but now Dior is stuck in a one note of sameness that is frustrating thanks to MGC, having one of the most iconic houses and instead of showing this level of Haute Couture, we have the same boring, uninspired work every year. Dior from the 2000 is just art.

Very Dior, Very Japanese, Absolutely Excellent. I am sad that most people would not wear any of these clothes due to the cost and the practicality of it. This collection was meant for a museum.

It's the level of creativity this man has that is so extraordinary. The silhouettes, the detail, the passion, the drama and elegance. He is carefully researching Japanese elements, it is about being inspired, having a love for it. Fusing it with the Dior ethos. It is not cultural appropriation if respect and appreciation is at the heart of the matter. This is the beauty we see. His fashion moves into the realm of art. Every piece belongs in a museum for us to admire.

This is why John Galliano is always the most iconic & unique fashion designer of all time ( I think only one who can beat him was Alexander McQueen ). Most of his collections are inspired from exotic cultures & histories. LEGENDARY !!!
Yes Dior under John Galliano always made a stunning collection. He likes to use others people culture as inspiration to make Dior next collection. Beside that u must check out also Alexander McQueen who did Japanese inspiration from samurai amor so stunning. He looks more dark side of fashion and one of my idola fashion designer ( prince of fashion) beside Madeline Vionett (queen of drape) n Balenciaga ( king of shape)

Hi, I'm new to your KZbin channel, I really like Haute Couture, I make all my own clothes myself. John Galliano and Alexander McQueen were my favorite designers at the time, for their extravagant show and for their exceptional craftsmanship and love for the profession, as were Thierry Mugler and Jean Paul Gaultier. Just like you I am so awestruck and moved by this beauty of art, I can't choose which dress was the most beautiful, I cried emotion that this show evokes and also how you were moved I was able to view a beautiful collection of JP Gaultier life, I was blown away by the beautiful craftsmanship. Since a year I have discovered the make-up artist Pat McGrath, who did all the make-up in this show, her talent (and that of her team) is unprecedented really sublime (note: her make-up line is also major, big fan ) Thanks for sharing this wonderful show, the image quality is beautiful.

The green gown with the huge sleeved coat you admired for example, the orange flowers on it are made of thousands of pieces of hand dyed lace, embroidered onto the fabric to make the flowers, and each layer of the coat is made entirely, so it is extremely heavy too!

12:07 is my favorite, it reminds me of the Barons favored courtesan going to the Paris opera circa late 1800's (contemporary, of course).
Every single piece is a work of art. This collection was to me the highest moment in clothes design. Utterly exquisite. Who started the concept of cultural appropriation with clothes? It is totally ridiculous!!! Our different cultures have wonderful clothing, and it is fantastic to see them, to learn about them and to get inspired by them. Galliano here has done the most beautiful homage to Japan. It is an honour to have people wanting to learn your culture and to celebrate it.

I think it is clear when a designer is using something of cultural significance in a disrespectful way. With Galliano, you can see the love and adoration for the different cultures in his work, thoroughly researched and immaculate.
