that and galliano does collaborate along side of silmane. You forget Galliano is the head designer of that house and you'd be silly to think he does not get the final say.

NO. WRONG WRONG WRONG. slimane did all of the styling and concepts for the dior homme runway shows during his tenure. he even picks the music and names the collections for the song he features on the runway. which is always by a band that he is friends with because hedi is big into the music scene. hedi had 100% creative control over all things dior homme while he was there.
and galliano is not head designer of anything at dior besides the women's line, he has the exact same standing within the overall group as hedi in that regard just that one worked on the dior nomme line and the other on the christian dior line. within the group, 'christian dior' and 'dior homme' are treated as entirely seperate entities. you may be aware that there are several 'dior' boutiques in the usa, but none of them carries any dior homme items at all. as there are 3 dior homme boutiques in the usa that carry only dior homme, no women's pieces at all. the only thing galliano runs completely is his own label, which is shit imo. he has absolutely zero say in anything having to do with dior homme.
the reason hedi left was because he wanted to be given a women's line and lvmh refused. he also wanted them to finance his onwn line outside of dior homme that would include both men's and women's rtw collections but lvmh wanted him to focus on dior homme.
you jneed to put down your men's vogue and pick up a copy of dnr.
