Story summary

Anna Wintour, the Condé Nast creative director, was spotted at Thom Browne's Spring/Summer 2027 fashion show during New York Fashion Week, seated next to Andrew Bolton, curator of the Metropolitan Museum's Costume Institute. This came after controversy over their decision to honor John Galliano, a former designer for Dior and Givenchy, at the Met Gala. Galliano had faced backlash as an antisemite who once declared his love for Hitler, leading wealthy museum donors and Jewish leaders to demand that he be removed from the event. As a result, the gala's planned celebration of Galliano was canceled, leaving Wintour and Bolton to consider alternatives or potential replacements amid criticism from the museum’s trustees.

Bolton also told the Times in July that he “had been considering a Galliano show since 2010, though he had not gotten serious about it until 2024,” and he outlined some of the plans that were being made to address what he referred to as “the rupture,” referencing Galliano’s shocking behavior. asserted
