Galvan London was founded in 2014 by four women from different backgrounds who shared a common frustration with the lack of modern, accessible eveningwear options. German designer Anna-Christin Haas, American businesswoman Katherine Holmgren, Icelandic former model Sólveig Harrison, and Swiss businesswoman Carolyn Hodler came together to create a brand that would empower women through fashion. The name derives from "galvanize," reflecting the brand's mission to energize and empower the modern woman. Initially focused on eveningwear, Galvan has evolved into a complete ready-to-wear collection offering pieces for any occasion. The brand is characterized by its clean, contemporary aesthetic that seamlessly blends modern innovation with timeless appeal. Known for structured silhouettes, luxurious fabrics, and effortless elegance, Galvan has gained international recognition and a celebrity following including Gwyneth Paltrow, Jennifer Lawrence, and Heidi Klum. The brand maintains accessible luxury pricing while delivering high-quality pieces that make women feel confident and empowered.
