John Galliano is rejoining the fashion world three years after an antisemitic rant saw him fired from Dior and excommunicated from the industry.
The British designer has been taken on as creative director of fashion house Maison Martin Margiela.
Mr Galliano, 53, spent almost 15 years at Dior before his drunken antisemitic rant in La Perle, a bar in Paris in 2011.
Videos posted online showed the high-profile designer saying "I love Hitler" and telling a group of La Perle customers: "People like you would be dead. Your mothers, your forefathers, would all be f****** gassed."
