Galliano fired from own fashion label: report

SCANDAL-TAINTED designer John Galliano has been fired from his own fashion label just weeks after an anti-Semitic outburst cost him his top job at Dior, Women’s Wear Daily (WWD) reported.

The British designer was ousted from the “John Galliano” fashion label, which is 92%-owned by Dior, six weeks after a video surfaced of him hurling anti-Semitic insults at a couple in a Paris bar, the fashion trade journal reported.

The label’s board decided to hand over his responsibilities to an in-house design team, WWD said citing sources, without specifying whether the label would retain the same name.
