D. GETSON EASTERN EMBROIDERY, LOS ANGELES

While in Los Angeles recently I was excited to see the sign of D. Getson Eastern Embroidery and insisted that we pull over to take a photo. The Getson atelier is known amongst fashion people as the creator of lavish beaded and sequined embroideries for James Galanos, like the incredible bodice below of a gown at vintage fashion source Decades. I bit more about Getson at the Kent State University Museum, which I visited in the past year.
