Will the beloved intellectual, sensual designer Riccardo Tisci move to Dior? LVMH owns both brands and is the logical replacement for the fired John Galliano.

Tisci has a strong fashion following, enormous talent and intellectual brainpower, a personal elegance and style, and legendary personal relationships (Tisci is the ‘T’ in Lea T) that might be a good move for Dior right now.

America may not love Tisci so much, but Asians — which is where the luxury market is moving — value his intellectual prowess in design.

Racked adds to the buzz, suggesting that LVMH’s Bernard Arnault would then move to bring Haider Ackermann to Givenchy. Karl Lagerfeld himself has identified Ackermann as his own successor, but Karl has no intention of leaving Chanel soon.

Personally, I’m in the mood for a man who truly likes women heading a mega luxury brand. And I would love an Italian man in charge for a change.

The industry is fixated on Galliano’s horrible comments about Jews — and so are we. But let’s not forget that Galliano’s comments about all women — including Italians, if the accusations are true — are totally misogynistic.

Calling women ‘bitches’ should upset a few people in the fashion world, but then again … I don’t believe Galliano is the only top designer with misogyny in his blood, when the subject is females.

Riccardo Tisci has never give me a single heart palpation, and I adore everything about him. Let’s hope Riccardo Tisci moves to Dior. Anne
