NEWS FLASH ! NEWS FLASH! NEWS FLASH!

Now, finally things are getting interesting. It appears that John Galliano has finally found a halfway house that's uniquely suited to his talents. According to Vogue and a very in the know, up to the moment, always in the loop insider, he's to be admitted to the Oscar de la Renta Institute for further observation and an aggressive battery of occupational therapy. Considering the Oscar de la Renta Institute has been listing in the shallows for the past few years, their star patient may be just the boost they, and he, need. Between the classes in lace embroidery, ball gowning, sweater setting and tweed suiting, not to mention intensive classes in Cha-Cha-Cha-ing, this could just be the place for him to regain his strength, repair the damage and re-imagine his future. One can not help but figure the influence and gentle nudging of Nurse Wintour, the post modern doppelganger of Nurse Ratchet. Her tough love methods of covert intimidation and deal brokering may just be what everyone needs at this juncture. I for one am extremely curious as to how this will all play out, as I'm sure many of you will be too. Until I have more intel and can decipher the coded language, I'll get back to you soon.

Fluff Chance, Candy Striper

I feel as if we were at the Louis the XIV court in Versailles ! The intrigues and complots are a constant !
You are right Fluff Madame de Montespan certainly brokered that deal, a major exposure for la Maison de la Renta. Galiano will redeem himself and maybe go on to an Oprah Winfrey interview a' la Lance Amstrong.
Francoise de Langlade, Oscar's deceased fabulous French wife, must have a laugh right now.....She would have loved Galiano, he is after all everything her husband was not !

interesting pairing if, it's true..... though I think he'd be better suited to re-launch Schiaparelli since there's no one living that might object to some of his ideas. Oscar, on the other hand...

Dear Chris, Schiapparelli will haave no " designer" it has a muse : Farida Khelfa, who was YSL's muse...
No designer just a muse....That is the new way...
Visit their website and enjoy the "new" Shiparelli.
