John Galliano Seals the Deal at Maison Margiela Spring 2015 Couture

From the get-go, Galliano came out swinging. The tightly-edited artisanal collection deftly combined the house’s deconstructed signature with his own penchant for theatrical storytelling. A knee-length fuchsia coat, festooned with a plastic mask on the bodice and transparent circular pockets at the hips, was a particular crowd-pleaser, receiving a showering of Instagram snaps. That little number was paired with latex tights and jaw-dropping, two-tone platforms that will be nearly impossible to get your hands on. From upcycled party dresses to minimalist suits to elaborate outerwear, Galliano kept the hits coming. But nothing could top the designer’s two masked characters for the finale — a decadently deconstructed zombie bride bejeweled within an inch of her life and a scarlet high priestess ready to waltz onto a battlefield. The resounding echo after the show was unanimous: Galliano is back.
