John Galliano believes being invited to design supermodel Kate Moss' wedding dress was creative rehab and helped turn his life around.

The designer, whose career was shattered after he was caught on camera in an anti-Semitic rant in 2011, realised he might be able to make up for his mistakes and rebuild his life when the British supermodel reached out to him a few weeks into his recovery from alcohol and prescription pill addictions, reported Contactmusic.

Galliano, 52, was stunned that Moss still wanted him to create her bridal gown for her wedding to Jamie Hince, an idea they had discussed before he was fired from Christian Dior.
 

"Creating Kate's wedding dress saved me personally because it was my creative rehab. She dared me to be me again," he said.

Moss, who has fronted campaigns for Dior in the past - donned the gorgeous 1920s style dress for her wedding at her countryside mansion in July 2011.
