‘High & Low: John Galliano’ featuring Academy Award winning director Kevin Macdonald

TV & Film

For this show we hit the runway and took an in depth look at the new documentary ‘High & Low: John Galliano’ that explores the controversial and very talented fashion designer’s rapid ascent, fall from grace after an antisemitic tirade, and rehabilitation. We spoke with the film’s Academy-Award winning director Kevin Macdonald who took us behind the scenes of the captivating and complex life of the flamboyant and iconoclastic designer. The film features intimate interviews with Galliano himself, offering a rare glimpse into his perspective and search for redemption, along with candid interviews from renowned figures in the fashion world such as Naomi Campbell, Kate Moss and Anna Wintour providing a multifaceted understanding of Galliano’s impact on the fashion industry.

We also revisited our interview from 2018 with Lorna Tucker, the director of WESTWOOD: PUNK, ICON, ACTIVIST, which offered an insiders take into the organised chaos of punk fashion designer Vivienne Westwood and her uphill struggle to success, looking closely at her artistry, activism and cultural significance.
