    ALMOST four years after being banished from the Paris fashion world over an anti-Semitic rant, designer John Galliano made his comeback in London for Maison Margiela on Monday to overwhelming critical acclaim.

    The 54-year-old, seen as one of the most brilliant fashion talents of his generation, was sacked by Dior in 2011 after being filmed delivering anti-Semitic insults in a drunken tirade at a Paris bar. He has kept a low profile since and some say they will never forgive his remarks, but Maison Margiela gave him a second chance by appointing him creative director in October.
