This Paris Fashion Week started bad, with the shocking video of Galliano and his dismissal at Dior, and it continues to get worse.
John Galliano's show, scheduled Sunday, March 6, has been cancelled; he will hold a small presentation to the press and buyers.
Yesterday, Christophe Decarnin, creative director of Balmain, was not present to take his bow at the end of the show. Why? The fashion designer was absent under doctor's orders, after having recently been released from the hospital, where he led his nervous breakdown. A Balmain spokesman said that Decarnin was involved in the design, but he worked with a new stylist, Melanie Ward, who replaced Emmanuelle Alt, who is focusing full-time on Vogue Paris.
Someone stop this curse!
