John Galliano Gets Booted From His Own Label

Posted: 15 Apr 2011 07:06 AM PDT

John Galliano, who was fired as creative director at Christian Dior following mounting allegations of racism and Antisemitism and a leaked video that showed the designer saying “I love Hitler,” has been ousted from his eponymous label, WWD is reporting.

The label, 91% of which is owned by Christian Dior SA, will continue to produce collections designed by the in-house team. According to WWD, pre-spring is already in the works. The paper also mentions that Dior has received several unsolicited offers to buy Galliano, but says that “it is understood a sale of the company is not an immediate priority, and no banks have been mandated to sell it, nor has financial data been made available to interested parties.”

Seoul Fashion Week Part 2: Women’s Fall 2011

Posted: 14 Apr 2011 04:10 PM PDT

Fashionista contributor Long Nguyen is the co-founder/style director of Flaunt.

SEOUL, KOREA–"I wish I could find underground designers that I could bring back and be the first to have in the store before everyone else get on board," said Sara Dovan, a co-owner of the Traffic designer men and women stores in Los Angeles, over breakfast on her last day in Seoul before a night flight home from the city’s Fashion Week. “I'm surprised to see how the younger designers here are so quick to espouse commercial fashion, rather than taking a route–like many of their colleagues in New York or Paris–that champions making creative or even perhaps unsalable clothes," I added. "But there are a few really good collections here," Sara responded.

Matthew Williamson Sets the Record Straight About Kate Middleton

Posted: 14 Apr 2011 10:16 AM PDT

Matthew Williamson was on hand at Macy’s flagship Herald Square store last night to celebrate the launch of his Impulse capsule collection for the mass retailer. So was Dree Hemingway, who stars in the line’s campaign, as well as Kelis, to provide the soundtrack. We sat down with the Brit designer, who is no stranger to high street collaborations having done one for H&M a few years back, to find out why he decided to pair up with Macy’s, how he found a muse in Dree, and, most importantly, why he thinks everyone should “get over” Kate Middleton.

Khloe tweeted first, "Top secret meeting with my sisters for OPI." This was followed up shortly afterward by Kourtney's: "Amazing top secret meeting today with @KhloeKardashian at OPI!!! I am obsessed with their nail polish colors!”

This can only mean one thing, right? Another collaboration for Kardashian Inc.

Vogue Covers Get Hand-stitched Into Art

Posted: 14 Apr 2011 07:31 AM PDT

British Vogue has just been immortalized in yarn. And embroidery thread. Lost at E Minor tipped us off to artist Inge Jacobsen, who created these incredibly detailed high fashion samples by stitching directly onto British Vogue‘s glossy covers–recreating Natalia Vodianova and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley's cleavage with impressive accuracy. Jacobsen says it took her around 40 hours to hand-stitch each cover. Unfortunately Jacobsen’s fashion-meets-arts and crafts masterpieces aren’t available for purchase until June, as they’re part of her final degree show.

Click through to see Rosie Huntington-Whiteley in cross stitch. Which cover would you like to see get Jacobsen’s hand-stitched treatment?
