The designer will present his first collection for the luxury label in London

John Galliano, who was named the new creative director of Maison Martin Margiela in October, is presenting his first couture collection for the luxury label on Jan. 12. The designer is set to debut the range in London, the setting for Galliano's "formative years and his beginnings in the industry," according to WWD.

The collection will be shown "around tea time" to about 100 people in the British capital, and again, by appointment, during Paris couture week from Jan. 25 to 31.
