Christian Dior SA fashion designer John Galliano will meet the woman accusing him of anti-Semitism tomorrow in a confrontation called by Paris prosecutors to settle the matter four days after he was arrested, his lawyer said.

The woman claimed a drunken Galliano verbally attacked her and her companion at a Paris cafe, using anti-Semitic and racist phrases. Dior, where Galliano is head designer, suspended him pending a police investigation into the incident.
