Oh my god How horridly atrocious. What exactly are we supposed to be looking at. Of the little the models were wearing, it looks like they went through a garbage disposer.

this collection is a lot more in your face than i thought. this is definitely john's aesthetic and just a little more raunchy than dsquared. i would never ask anyone to wear it, but there is a definite audience for these kind of clothes.

I like it! I'd wear it...apart from the suspenders and walking around in underwear part...I think that John Galliano once said that fashion had to be a balance between chic and wild - walking around in your undies is just too wild...

Lena, thanks for the pics and nqth, thanks for the link to this article. I love reading what John has to say about his own work.

Here's the photo from that article. The seeming (ok, ultra-apparent) difference between runway and what's for sale is so Galliano. Off the rack, the clothes are "ready" as is or they provide a point of departure for style that's without limit.

I also think that the clothes could be worn "normally" :-), without the raunchy runway look. Nice prints, t-shirts and jeans, those are the most "ready to wear":-) Discreet lacing is still not for me, tho.

more :-)

The clothes are par for the course .
Galliano has form , but I prefer that of his stablemate , Hedi Slimane .

Still , to each his own , as they say !

Long live Hedi... classic is so much more appealing to me than this. I do, however, like the cut of the jeans in the fitting pic. Off the rack, it looks nothing like this (Jeffrey has it) fortunately.

that bag in the last picture is gorgeous, and so are the pants in the third picture...

I could wear some stuff also...not in that way... I could surely wear this.

And OMG is that guy trying to pop out something out of his undies ... I would wear that underwear as outerwear with no problem
