To Sir, with Love


Thats what the French government would have thought when they decided to appoint our quirky, eccentric, fashion boy as the chevalier of the French Legion of Honor.As to all the non-French curious minds who raise an eyebrow on the meaning of all this, the order was established by Napoleon Bonaparte in 1802 to recognize unusual military and government service. It is divided into five grades: Grand-Croix (Grand Cross), Grand Officier (Grand Officer), Commandeur (Commander), Officier (Officer) and Chevalier (Knight). Galliano was awarded the Chevalier or Knight class.

P.S:Just wondering whether Galliano is on a special diet loaded with anti oxidants that makes him younger everyday!!!Or is it just the jogging along the Seine river banks thats made ageing turn his back towards him...
