Photographed by Mark Shaw for the Nov. 22, 1954 issue of LIFE. The 29 year old fashion designer James Galanos is pictured in the Costume Institute of the Metropolitan Museum surrounded by live models wearing his designs. Background mannequins are clothed in vintage fashions up to 150 years old. All Mark Shaw prints are made to order in limited editions on Hahnemuhle photo rag paper. Each print is Estate stamped on the back and signed and numbered by David Shaw, and accompanied by a letter of authenticity. Lead time is four to six weeks, but we often receive them sooner.

*Please note this image is available in several sizes. Prices increase as editions sell out.
