Fashion brand Maison Margiela has parted ways with its artistic director John Galliano after ten years, its parent company OTB said on Wednesday, without giving any reason for the decision. OTB founder Renzo Rosso hired the ex-Christian Dior designer in 2014 after he was sacked in 2011 by Dior owner LVMH over a video showing him making anti-Semitic comments in a Paris bar.

The Paris-based fashion house, Maison Margiela, has announced that British designer John Galliano is leaving the company after 10 years as artistic director.
