John Galliano appears at the end of the Christian Dior fall-winter 2007/2008 ready-to-wear collection in Paris in 2007. Christian Dior fired Mr. Galliano as its creative director on March 3 after an online video emerged that showed him praising Adolf Hitler, and an alleged anti-Semitic incident in a Paris cafe.

Nicole Kidman wore what ended up being the most reviled gown on the red carpet at the Academy Awards on Feb. 27. The so-called 'napkin dress' was designed by John Galliano for Christian Dior.

Christian Dior's staff, the makers of John Galliano's designs (nicknamed the 'petit mains' or 'little hands'), take the stage at the end of the fired designer's Fall-Winter 2011/2012 women's ready-to-wear collection on March 4. Dior seemed to be trying to distance itself from its loose-cannon former creative director by spotlighting the craftspeople. Benoit Tessier/Reuters
John Galliano pulls out all the stops at his Autumn/Winter 2007-2008 haute couture fashion show in Paris in 2007.

Logic dictates that if the model looks bulbous, the average woman is not going to fare too well in this fluffy number. A model wears John Galliano at Dior's Haute Couture Spring Summer 2011 fashion collection in Paris on Jan. 24. Francois Mori/AP

Video footage and eye witness accounts from the scene of a brutal murder in London on Wednesday seem to indicate that the attackers may have been politically motivated. Counterterrorism officers are leading the investigation. Two men have been arrested.
Two men with butcher knives hacked another to death Wednesday near a London military barracks and one then went on video to explain the crime — shouting political statements, gesturing with bloodied hands and waving a meat cleaver. Soon after, arriving police shot and wounded the unidentified assailants and took them into custody.
