Curator't Note

The bias cut is one of the defining features of John Galliano's work, appearing throughout his early collections and remaining central to his designs during his tenure at Dior. This black silk chiffon gown is a great example of the technique. It has a cowl neckline with a knot at the right shoulder and a single long, sheer sleeve. A row of self-fabric covered buttons runs down the right side. A sash tied at the left hip extends to the hem.

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.
