DIOR WISDOM: RAF SIMONS, THE NEW CREATIVE DIRECTOR!

The job at Dior has finally been filled. As much as we love, appreciate and miss John Gallian, if anyone was capable of replacing him, that was definitely Raf Simons or Stefano Pilati! 
The luck one?..Raf Simons!


On Wednesday, the Paris fashion house will announce that Raf Simons will take over immediately as creative director, replacing John Galliano, who was fired from Dior last year after he made anti-Semitic remarks. His first collection is planned for July at the fall haute couture shows.

Temperamentally, Simons is the exact opposite of Galliano, who, rumuors say, admired  Simons’s show in February for Jil Sander, a collection of delicately feminine clothes in pinks and beige. It was also Raf Simons’s last for Sander. He was fired shortly before the show, replaced by the brand’s founder.


We wish him good luck and a long and oustanding collaboration!
