There is no doubt these are difficult, polarizing times. Conceiving his fall 2024 collection, Kobi Halperin considered the challenges the world is facing, and wanted the clothes “to create a sense of unity and deliver a reassuring message of hope: that everything will be alright if we stand together.”
Relying on memories and traditions of his Jewish faith, he delivered community, belonging, and plenty of emotion that speaks to all religions and lifestyles. Starting with a ladylike white suit featuring gold chain details and styled with gold gloves and flats, Halperin set the tone for a sophisticated lineup of clothes with ample appeal – viscerally and also commercially in the most positive way.
The show atmosphere was amplified by a musical ensemble which was created and composed by Yosi Mizrahi in collaboration with Kobi Halperin and featuring London-based cantor, Yudi Cohen.
“In times of uncertainty and conflict,” the show notes said, “the hope for better days lies entirely in our common desire for togetherness.” Amen.
