The newspaper print dress worn by Sarah Jessica Parker as Carrie Bradshaw in Sex & the City has become one of the most recognisable pieces in television fashion historyGalliano had been at the helm of Christian Dior for four years when he unveiled the design, and was well known for his sense of theatricality. He introduced the newsprint motif during his controversial Spring 2000 Haute Couture show, incorporating press clippings from the International Herald Tribune - including real reviews of his own previous collections.The collection, entitled Hobo, was inspired partly by the homeless people Galliano encountered while jogging, as well as the Tramp Ball trend of the 1920s and 30s, when wealthy society figures would dress as the homeless for lavish soirées.Galliano dressed his models in slashed dresses and distressed jackets, accessorised with whisky bottles, kitchen utensils and other pieces resembling rubbish found on the street.The collection sparked fierce criticism. Social welfare campaigners condemned Galliano's treatment of homelessness as fashion, while members of the community staged protests outside Dior's headquarters in Paris.Ten days after the show, the designer issued an official apology, stating: 'I never wanted to make a spectacle of misery.'Following the backlash, Galliano refined the concept for Dior's Autumn/Winter ready-to-wear collection later that year.He created a fictional newspaper, The Christian Dior Daily, which became the basis for a series of looks.
