John Galliano: My career has been a helter-skelter trip

22nd September 2010

(Cover) - EN Fashion - John Galliano says his career has had as many low points as high ones.

The designer is renowned for the haute couture pieces he created for Christian Dior, and also has his own label. His style is flamboyant, and he admits building a successful career hasnt always been easy.

All I can do is share my story and my experience. Its been a helter-skelter trip with as many lows as highs, he explained. But Ive come to value the lows. Its just not easy to appreciate them when you are in them.

Galliano loves his work, and says it bleeds into every area of his life. He even thinks about it when he is eating, and has a specific diet to ensure he is always full of energy and ideas.

I love my breakfast. I start with a seasonal fruit smoothie and some pumpernickel bread. Then a post-gym drink after working out, he explained to the British edition of Grazia magazine. Lots of carbs for lunch. In fact, I eat for most of the day. But no junk food. Well, at show time we do get junk food sent from England by friends and the team get so excited about the KitKats. Im a shortbread man myself. (C) Cover Media
