“Dodie” Rosekrans was an early and enduring
supporter of John Galliano’s work, financing
collections as well as procuring some of his most
iconic garments over more than fifteen years.
The selection of whimsical designs seen here—
which Galliano made under his eponymous label
as well as while serving as creative director of
the French couture house Christian Dior—were
all worn by Rosekrans, who was recognized
internationally for her eclectic style of dress.
