Riccardo Tisci has been on the tip of many fashion friends’ tongues when asked who they think could replace John Galliano at Dior (remember Galliano’s anti-semitics?). Everyone in the industry already knows that he is the new designer.
The Givenchy designer was again “confirmed” when Derek Blasberg tweeted as such, then in an interview with W, Karl Lagerfeld said he would like to see Tisci go to Dior and Haider Ackermann take over at Givenchy, THEN ‘sources’ report that he is “openly discussing his move to Dior with certain acquaintances”. Where is the announcement, already?
