"  John Galliano&amp;#039;s carefully considered comeback has taken an interesting twist: the former Dior designer has reportedly been quietly working as a consultant for Russian perfumery chain L&amp;#039;Etoile for the past few months.   Rumours circulating online suggest that he has been appointed creative director at the beauty company, but nothing has yet been confirmed. According to WWD, further details regarding his involvement with L&amp;#039;Etoile will be released within the next few days.  The perfumery is the largest in Russia, with 750 stores and an offering that comprises more than 10,000 fragrance and cosmetics products from labels including Christian Dior, Chanel, Givenchy, Est\u00E9e Lauder and Clarins. It also has its own brand of make-up and accessories, launched in 2011.  Galliano was dismissed from his role as creative director at Dior back in March 2011, following an anti-Semitic outburst caught on camera at a Paris caf\u00E9. Since then, he has kept a relatively low profile, allowing only a handful of interviews and joining Oscar de la Renta for a short month-long residency. Whispers that he was working with de la Renta as his eventual successor at the fashion house were fierce at the beginning of the year, but have since been quashed.   Galliano previously dealt with beauty in his former roles at Dior and his own eponymous label, working on fragrances, beauty campaigns and cosmetic lines.
