Curator's Note

From Galliano's AW 1999 "Maori" collection. Galliano took inspiration from C.F. Goldie’s portraits of Māori chiefs from the turn of the century. The collection mixed close tailoring with raffia embroidery and feather trims, and was shown on a set made to look like a roadworks site. This jacket has a wide collar in woven leather and suede leather, fastened with cowrie shell buttons. It appeared on the runway in a knit version rather than in wool crepe.

John Galliano

John Galliano graduated from Central Saint Martins in 1984 with Les Incroyables, a collection drawn from the French Revolution bought in its entirety by Browns. He moved to Paris in the early 1990s, staging shows in borrowed hôtels particuliers that attracted Princess Diana, Madonna and LVMH, leading to appointments at Givenchy in 1995 and Christian Dior in 1996. Under his own label he ran concurrently with both houses, his work was shaped by romantic storytelling, bias-cut construction and historical characters drawn from across cultures and centuries. He was named British Designer of the Year four times.
