Paris, France – There’s romance in the air with the new Fall Winter 2017/18 by the Israeli couturier, Galia Lahav.

A legend in her own country, Galia Lahav presents to us an ethereal fairy effect that is created by the puffy arms, huge ruffles, bows and sheer fabrics. The decorative effect is created by large-scale flowers, sequins, lave and ornamentation. There’s much asymmetry with one shoulder dresses and tops. The garments are of different lengths with many sharp cuts and slits. She embellishes her work with beautiful embroideries, leather belts, and elegant motifs.

An air of mystery is in the oriental pieces governed in the front with some kimono vibes. For night there’s dark, substantial velvet or provocative leather. Each time a great emphasis is placed on the waist. The colors include silver, tan, grey, black, red and dark navy. Though there are truly many great pieces to choose from here, there does exist a weaker side in the collection. Galia Lahav at times forgets to make sure that the collection is united as a whole by a guiding line.  This is the only thing missing in this otherwise well conceived and executed collection.
