John Galliano loves collaborating with celebrities
The British designer has worked with a number of Hollywood beauties including Marion Cotillard and Natalie Portman on campaigns for Dior but revealed he was most impressed with Charlize Theron.
He said: "I love working with actresses. I love their creative process. It`s a bit like brainstorming. Working with Charlize [for J`adore Dior Parfum] was a scream. I mean, she ends up directing the whole thing.
"And she`s right; she knows what she`s doing. She`ll remember exactly which way she sat, where her butt was, her nails. I mean it`s just fabulous. I love the creative process. What they bring creatively is really important."
While John loves working with celebrities, he says he has no pre-requisites for who he casts in his campaigns.
He explained to WWD: "It depends on the product. It`s a creative process that I love, whether it`s working with Kate Moss, Sharon Stone, Charlize Theron or Natalie Portman. We`ve had a fun time with Marion Cotillard doing some internet films.
"The last one, "The Grey Lady," was in London. It was by John Cameron Mitchell. It was a real trip - with Sir Ian McKellen! He`s in a wheelchair and she has these supernatural powers. She seduces him and because of her love he`s able to walk. I cried when he got up. Everyone was crying. We all were in tears."
