Well, I think it's questionable that such a line would have survived as part of the Red Book, post-Lord of the Rings Middle-earth.
Generally speaking, neither the Dwarves of The Book of Lost Tales, nor 'Tinwelint' (Thingol) remained the same in much later conceptions, yet that said, I think we can safely say Gimli thought Galadriel very fair in any case, implying that Dwarves (or at least some) could find Elves beautiful.
But if so, that still doesn't mean Tolkien would have retained this line from The Book of Lost Tales.
