John Galliano is well-known for his extravagant designs and dramatic presentations. One of his most memorable showcases was the stunning fashion opera unveiling of the Christian Dior Spring 1998 haute couture collection. This remarkable event was inspired by, if not dedicated to Marchesa Casati, one of his muses, and her fascination with Sergei Diaghilev's Ballet Russe. The collection, held at the Palais Garnier Opera house in Paris, featured sculptural silhouettes, cinched waist shapes reminiscent of Dior's iconic New Look, lace sheaths, skirt suits, mink fur-trimmed opera coats, backless velvet hoop-skirt gowns in Art Nouveau prints, and rose-strewn picture hats.
