John Galliano Born November 28, 1960 is a British-Gibraltarian fashion designer.

Born Juan Carlos Antonio Galliano in Gibraltar to a Gibraltarian father and a Spanish mother, he moved to London as a child and attended Wilson's School in Wallington.

In 1984, he graduated in fashion design from St. Martin's School of Arts, with a collection inspired by the French Revolution (Sun in Aquarius at the same place as Nicolas Sarkozy) : called "Les Incroyables", that received positive reviews and was bought in its entirety and sold in the London fashion boutique "Browns". Following that, he started his own label under his name and began his career as a fashion designer.

He was awarded British Designer of the Year in 1987 (Saturn and Uranus transit on his natal Jupiter, Pluto transit on his natal Neptune), 1994 and 1995 (Jupiter return).

In the 1990s, Galliano relocated to Paris in search of financial backing and a strong client base. In 1995, he was appointed as the designer of Givenchy by Bernard Arnault owner of luxury goods congolmerate LVMH, thus becoming the first British designer to head a French haute couture house (Jupiter return in Sagittarius). Less than two years later, on October 14, 1996, LVMH moved Galliano to Christian Dior (Jupiter transit his Mars Saturn conjunction). His first couture show for Dior coincided with the label's 50th anniversary, on January 20, 1997 (Mars Saturn opposition on the Lunar Nodes of the sky, Sun Jupiter conjunction beginning of Aquarius).

He has been quoted as identifying his love of theatre (Sun/Moon/Mercury square Neptune in Scorpio)and femininity (New Moon in Aquarius) as central to his creations – "my role is to seduce" he has said (Neptune = fog and seduction).

Currently, between his own label and Dior, Galliano produces six couture and ready-to-wear collections a year and a new mid-season range under his own name "G Galliano".

Galliano says he follows a rigorous exercise regime which sees him rise at 6am each morning to complete a gruelling, 40-minute aerobic session with his personal trainer, before embarking on a 10-minute stretch, doing 150 push-ups and a six-mile jog along the banks of the Seine River (Jupiter in Sagittarius). "Working flat out, it was a necessary step to take," he once said. "It helps to concentrate the mind and I find that I have so much more energy and focus."
