Tel Aviv is fast growing into a hub of style and design with Israeli designers like Alon Livné, Nili Lotan and Alber Albaz taking over some of the world’s most important fashion stages. Tel Aviv is not just an amazing destination for history and culture, and not just about dining as well – you can explore the city’s bustling fashion scene and shop for some amazing and unique pieces from one of Tel Aviv’s top fashion designers.

Alon Livné

Today’s most famous Israeli fashion designer, and with good reason, is Alon Livné. Winner of the first season of Israeli Project Runway, his ready-to-wear collection has gained him a following including Naomi Campbell, Kim Kardashian and Paris Hilton. After he was commissioned by Beyonce to design gowns for The Mrs. Carter Show World Tour back in 2013, he became the first Israeli brand to display in Paris’s fashion show in 2017 and forecasts are declaring him to be destined for many more great things. His bridal collection; ‘Alon Livne White‘ is sold in boutiques and bridal shops worldwide and is incredibly admired by bridal fashion editors and magazines around the world.

Sack’s

An Israeli fashion chain of clothing which can be found in over 1,000 stores including 14 European countries and other global locations, Sack’s contemporary collections still give the feeling of a boutique fashion designer brand. Their insistence on using the finest quality fabrics like pure cotton, silk, cashmere, leather and others – make their everyday and evening clothing not only stylish and flattering but also high-quality and comfortable.

Sharon Brunsher

To all of those whose wardrobes are filled with monochromatic shades and no single colour, this is the place for you. Sharon Brunsher‘s stores are heaven for anyone who appreciates minimalism. All about flowing tops and pastoral chic, the brand’s three Tel Aviv stores sell not only clothing but are also home to textiles, accessories, stationery, fragrances and more. Recommended by Vogue, Elle Decor and W Tel Aviv guide, the brand’s Tel Aviv stores should not be missed.

Tres

A female fashion brand founded by three Shenkar Fashion Design School graduates, aimed at Tel Aviv’s urban stylish clientele. The three (Tres) designers worked for famous fashion homes like Alon Livne and Maskit before joining forces to create their own brand, and have recently opened their first store in the heart of Tel Aviv.

Julliett

Julliett is a beloved womenswear fashion label sold in boutiques, online, and in the brand’s Tel Aviv studio. The designer, Gili Azoulay makes modern, unique and clean-cut silhouettes that flatter any body type and uses silk in her eveningwear in order to contrast shiny and matte. The one thing that you will see in each and every one of her collections is a jumpsuit.

Maya Negri

Tel Aviv-based designer Maya Negri has five stores across the country, as well as an online portal. She takes after Tel Aviv’s ‘organic flow’ of international and Israeli influences and adapts her collections to reflect this diversity of influences. Another thing evident in her collections is their ability to be dressed up or down, which is something very important to the typical dynamic Tel Avivian lifestyle, as the Tel Aviv woman wants to work hard and be comfortable, and look amazing doing it.

Aviva Zilberman

Aviva Zilberman’s collection offers the perfect combination of soft, sensual femininity along with the elegance of more masculine structures. When she founded her brand in 2008, she aspired to create a modern high-end ready-to-wear house, and it works. Her clothes, although on the pricey side, offer much more than style or fashion, they offer precision, elegance, and confidence.

Stella & Lori

When Israeli sisters, one an architect and the other a marketing professional, decided to start their own fine leather brand in Tel Aviv, they named it after their grandmothers, Stella and Lori, since in the sister’s eyes, they marked the concept of bringing a European touch of style and chic to Israel. The duo design leather bags and accessories made of raw material, as well as a unique clothing ready-to-wear line.

ATA

ATA is the name of a clothing factory which operated in Israel between 1935 and 1980, a nostalgic name in Israeli fashion history. The factory designed clothing with fine materials made for long hours of work. The brand was resurrected in 2011 with the purpose to bring life to the spirit of Israel’s first few years, which marked the beginning of something new to the Jews who came to build this country from all ends of the world. ATA‘s clothing lines, for both men and women, are comfortable and basic but with an added benefit of more modern materials, silhouettes, and a vintage touch.
