About the Item
James Galanos is often a hidden gem of fashion. With his designs ranging from eccentric to presidential, Galanos’ work played a tremendous role in carving out the concept of American couture.
This Galanos beaded silk dress features a fitted silhouette with a striking bodice adorned with intricate, colorful hand-beaded embellishments. The multicolored tubular beads are meticulously arranged to form a textured, kaleidoscopic pattern that shimmers brilliantly. The mini skirt, crafted from flowing, floral-printed silk, provides a stunning contrast to the bodice, adding softness, movement, and a touch of whimsy to the overall design.
In excellent condition, this dress has undergone a thoughtful alteration at the side seams to expand its fit by incorporating additional patterned silk fabric. This adjustment can be easily undone by a skilled seamstress to restore the dress to its original proportions.
High-quality vintage pieces like this are yours to live in and love while increasing in value every year. It’s never too soon to start collecting them, as an investment in your wardrobe—and in yourself.

1950s Hattie Carnegie Silk Floral Print Watercolor Nipped Waist Dress
By Hattie Carnegie
Located in Boca Raton, FL
From the early 1950s comes this heavenly silk dress by Hattie Carnegie. Its nipped-waist silhouette is the perfect canvas for the gorgeous watercolor print that unfolds upon it: a blanket of pretty peonies in shades of pink, gray, white, lavender and, of course, Carnegie blue. “My clothes are built to show off the woman who wears them,” the American designer once said. “I like them to be simple—complicated and simple—to move well, to move with the times and a little ahead of them.” Still stunning today, this vintage treasure is a reflection of her philosophy—and a ladylike option for so many occasions, from a springtime luncheon to a summertime wedding or garden party.
