New e-commerce site, named the 'Galliano Gazette', signals that the show really is going on at the disgraced designer's eponymous label.
JOHN GALLIANO's eponymous label, which is no longer helmed by the designer following his dismissal in March, has launched an online store for the first time. Now created by Galliano's former assistant Bill Gaytten.
"The House of John Galliano is thrilled to be able to launch itself into cyberspace, and is excited to bring the elements of the Galliano Universe to e-commerce," said a company statement released this afternoon.
"Galliano's essence of energy and innovation inspires the ever-evolving narrative across the site, and infuses the web with the unique Galliano identity," it says. "The Galliano vision is firmly set towards the future yet remains grounded in a competitive price bracket."
It remains to be seen how the brand will perform without the designer at the helm and - although Gaytten's first catwalk outing for the label was relatively well received - whether the accessibility of an online shop will encourage international consumers to spend sans John.
What may get fans of the designer shopping, however, is the news that the site will launch with the final collection created by Galliano himself before his departure - an offering of vintage-inspired dresses similar to that which Galliano created for Kate Moss' wedding.
