Editor's Note

“It’s Dior, Darling.”

John Galliano's use of the giant 'CD' emblem during his tenure at Dior left a lasting impact on the fashion world. When Galliano became the Creative Director of Dior in 1996, he revitalized the brand with his bold and theatrical designs, injecting new energy into the iconic fashion house.

One of Galliano's most notable contributions was the incorporation of the giant 'CD' emblem, which became synonymous with Dior under his creative direction. This emblem was prominently featured in various collections, adorning garments, accessories, and even runway sets. By integrating the 'CD' logo in such a prominent manner, Galliano reinforced Dior's brand identity while simultaneously infusing it with his artistic vision.
