John Galliano

When it rains, it pours. Less than a week after John Galliano's interview with Vanity Fair hit newsstands, WWD is reporting that the designer will tape an hour-long interview with Charlie Rose tomorrow, marking his first broadcast appearance since getting ousted at Dior in 2011. An air date for the interview has yet to be announced.

This interview provides Galliano yet another chance to reintroduce himself to the fashion industry. He was previously in talks with Parsons to be a guest professor (which ended up getting canceled due to a student petition), and he took a three-week residency with Oscar de la Renta just before the designer's Fall 2013 show. His relationship with de la Renta appears to be what brought about this latest opportunity.

"Charlie Rose has a very close relationship with Oscar," Liz Rosenberg, Galliano's publicist, said. "Oscar had been talking to John about the possibility of doing an interview with Charlie."

Are we about to see Galliano's relationship with Oscar de la Renta develop even more? It's something we can only hope Charlie Rose will address in his interview with the designer.

In his first interview since his 2011 dismissal from Dior — which also happens to be his first-ever sober interview, too — John Galliano spoke with Vanity Fair about the addiction that consumed him, the anti-Semitic remarks he made in a Paris cafe, and the road to recovery in the two years since his firing. The exclusive interview, which also pulls from a range of sources, including Galliano's friends Kate Moss and Oscar de la Renta, as well as members of the Jewish community, will be available in full in the July 2013 issue, but until then, a few highlights below.

On his anti-Semitic outburst: "It's the worst thing I have said in my life, but I didn't mean it. . . . I have been trying to find out why that anger was directed at this race. I now realize I was so f*cking angry and so discontent with myself that I just said the most spiteful thing I could."

On his excessive drinking and drug use: "I was going to end up in a mental asylum or six feet under."

On his first phone call in rehab: [Galliano called Bill Gaytten, who stepped in as creative director of the John Galliano label.] "Bill said, 'Do you realize what you've f*cking done?' and I said 'Kind of.' But I still didn't. I couldn't say yes. I just couldn't. And those were the last words we shared. That's someone I've known for 30 years. Even now I'm still learning every day how many people I hurt."

On the last two years: "It sounds a bit bizarre, but I am so grateful for what did happen. I have learned so much about myself. I have rediscovered that little boy who had the hunger to create, which I think I had lost. I am alive."

The controversial seminar John Galliano had been scheduled to teach at Parsons has been canceled, the school announced late Tuesday.

While she wouldn't address whether the class had been canceled because of a petition against the class purportedly led by students, Parsons spokeswoman Deborah Kirschner told The New York Times's Eric Wilson, "We could not reach consensus with Mr. Galliano on the conditions of this conversation, and the program could not move forward."

Another source said finalizing the content of the class — which was supposed to focus on "provoking the power of emotion in context of fashion practice" — was not what prevented the seminar from going forward. Instead, it's said Galliano and the school never reached an agreement about the size and makeup of the students in the class.

Teaching the class would have been Galliano's second temporary position in New York's fashion community after a three-week residency at Oscar de la Renta's studio earlier this year.

We caught up with Project Runway host Heidi Klum at an event in LA recently, and the model-mom gave us the scoop on all things style. From her favorite red-carpet looks to what it was like to collaborate with John Galliano at the 2008 Oscars to how she unwinds at home, Heidi didn't spare any detail. And are you're wondering about her beauty routine? Click here now.

POPSUGAR: What's your most memorable red-carpet fashion moment?
Heidi Klum: Definitely John Galliano [for Christian Dior] made a beautiful red dress for the Oscars — it was made for me. So much fabric in the way he draped it around the shoulders. It was stunning how he made this dress. I really felt like Cinderella. That was probably one of my favorite dresses. Obviously, I've had many different dresses, but sometimes it's a dream of mine to have this fairy-tale princess moment. And that was my fairy-tale princess moment to wear that gigantic red dress.

PS: What was the process of collaborating with Galliano like?
HK: He drew it, and then he did the sketches, and it was just so big. Armani has made beautiful dresses for me, but they were closer to the body. I do that most of the time. Another one I loved was in Cannes, that Marchesa made — it was very see-through, but on the most important parts, it had embroideries. It was very beautiful.

While some in the fashion industry might have reacted with excitement to the news that John Galliano will teach a course at Parsons, not everyone is so overjoyed. An anonymous person claiming to be a student at the school has started a petition asking for the three-day class to be canceled.

"We do not want money from our tuition going to this kind of person," the author of the petition wrote on Change.org. "We feel like we've been slapped in the face by our school. There should be no room for this kind of person as a staff member on the faculty at Parsons."

The petition makes repeated references to the anti-Semitic remarks that got Galliano fired from his position as artistic director at Dior in early 2011. "Hiring someone who has made such horrific comments shows that the school values Galliano over their entire Jewish student body," the petition reads. "It shows they value him over their students' respect, peace of mind, and heritage."

So far Parsons has made no comment on the petition but called Galliano "an unparalleled living legend capable of blending and blurring the traditional boundaries of practice" when it announced the class to its senior students and staff over the weekend. The seminar is entitled "Show Me Emotion."

It's official: after months of rumors and speculation that John Galliano might teach a course in fashion, the former Dior designer is scheduled to teach a class at Parsons.

The school announced the four-day master class, called Show Me Emotion, in an email to its senior students and faculty over the weekend. Students will spend the first three days in the design studio with Galliano, and the fourth day will consist of a Q and A between the designer and Parsons dean of fashion Simon Collins. In the email, published in full by Dis Magazine, the school emphasized that the course would focus on "provoking the power of emotion in context of fashion practice and exploration of intuitive, perceptive manners of investigational making."

Parsons also called Galliano "a master of tailoring, construction, research, and thematic investigation" and said that he's "an unparalleled living legend capable of blending and blurring the traditional boundaries of practice."

This is Galliano's second venture back into the fashion world after working as a designer in residence for Oscar de la Renta earlier this year. He was fired from his position as artistic director at Dior in March 2011 after being accused of going on an anti-Semitic rant at a bar in Paris.

When you've been highly influential for as long as Lanvin creative director Alber Elbaz has, your opinion tends to carry some weight. But Elbaz, who spent Monday afternoon on a stage doing a Q&A with Harper's Bazaar editor in chief Glenda Bailey, was as charming and humble as he's been for all of his 20-plus years in the business.

In a wide-ranging conversation about his life and career, Elbaz told Bailey and the assembled audience about his work for Geoffrey Beene — who taught him never to use the word "commercial" — to the fall of John Galliano, and what he thinks is the most dangerous thing facing the fashion industry today. A look at some of his thoughts, here.

At Paris Fashion Week, John Galliano has done the impossible for Fall 2013: reinvented the smoky eye, a runway staple. Instead of the typical noir-smudged eyelids and under-eyes that define the look, Galliano painted his ladies up in a silvery gray that extended from lash lines to brows. Lower lash lines were basically bare, save for a swipe of ivory shadow in the inner corners to give a touch of depth.

The look: Silvery smoky eyes, nude lips, subtle highlighting.
Color scheme: Silver, black, ivory.
Who would wear it: Your edgy best friend who is all about a dramatic eye look.
