Our world is changing everyday but there’s one thing that will never go away: The beautiful celebration of love. That’s why we’re so excited to introduce you to Pret-A-Porter, our newest, freshest and most modern take on the bridal wardrobe and Online wedding dresses.
This is a totally new side of us, one that you’ve definitely never seen before. Our first collection debuted in 1984 and ever since, you’ve known our statement-making dresses, ripe with decadent embroidery and over-the-top grandeur.
Our new line, Pret-A-Porter, is all about the quiet power of simplicity. It’s the Galia Lahav take on casual. Because crisp, clean lines in shades of white can still make for an unforgettable bridal look, whether you’re showing up at your engagement party, celebrating your bridal shower or taking that first step down the aisle.
Pret-A-Porter was designed for the woman whose style is more timeless than trendy. She’s effortless and still modern. The bride who appreciates simplicity, but knows that even the smallest detail can make an unforgettable impact. That’s why there’s a Pret-A-Porter dress for every occasion and an intricate detail to match every love story.
The launch of Pret-A-Porter is more than just a new line of dresses; it marks a whole new chapter for Galia Lahav. Now in our third decade of business, we’ve built a strong community that stems from our base in Tel Aviv and circles the globe, as our customers can find our designs in over 80 top bridal boutiques. You celebrate with us everyday, as part of our strong community on social media. You’ve seen our collections grace the prestigious runway at Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week for four consecutive seasons, as the only Israeli designer selected by the Chambre Syndicale de Haute Couture for such an honor.
So, it’s why we want to share this moment with you. Along with Pret-A-Porter, we’ll be launching a new logo and all new branding. We’ll always be an Israeli bridal brand but now is our time to show you how Galia Lahav can be your favorite modern luxury fashion house.
For our first collection, debuting Spring 2021, the inspiration is plain and simple. It’s you. You, without a filter. You, confident in your own skin. You, deeply in love. Your wedding dress should be an extension of that pure feeling, allowing you to show off your truest self. There are no extra layers or over-the-top frills, just 10 gorgeous silhouettes that are made to elevate your natural beauty.
We’ve been working on this inaugural collection for over a year, honing our vision and perfecting every detail of the line. We also decided to open a new creative hub in London, where we built a dedicated Pret-A-Porter team, including many talented individuals from across the fashion community. The resulting collection includes a tank style that’s twisted at the waist and ended with a risqué A-line skirt. And an oh-so-elegant strapless dress with a restrained sprinkling of embellishment on the bodice—plus, the most flattering fit imaginable. There’s also a perfectly tailored long-sleeve gown with a deep-V neck and a skirt slit that mirrors it.
Across every frock, it’s the tiny details that are show-stopping. Think, a row of covered buttons running down the spine or the delicate pouf adorning each shoulder. There’s a jeweled collar that tops a deep, plunging back and a frock that is a gown from one angle and a bridal mini dress from another. While there’s a variety of neckline options, from off-the-shoulder to longsleeve, you’ll find an array of hems in this debut range, like a dramatic train or a thigh-grazing mini.
The Pret-A-Porter collection will be available online, for the first time ever in our history. But that doesn’t mean you’ll be missing out on the Galia Lahav experience; if anything, it’s being seamlessly delivered directly to your doorstep. That means personal consultations via Zoom and all of the personal styling services necessary to complete your look. Finding your dream dress—whether it has a playful high-low silhouette or a strappy halter neckline—will still be tailored to you, your taste and your needs. Now, it will also be fast and easy. But most of all, with Pret-A-Porter, the process of finding your dream dress will remain an experience you cherish forever.
