Israeli fashion refers to fashion design and modeling in Israel. Israel has become an international center of fashion and design.〔(What’s New in Tel Aviv ), by David Kaufman, March 2008.〕 Tel Aviv has been called the “next hot destination” for fashion.〔(Promoting Israel in a Downturn ), David Saranga, 17 December 2008〕 Israeli designers, such as swimwear company Gottex, show their collections at leading fashion shows, including New York’s Bryant Park fashion show.〔(Fashion Week: Gottex ), 9 September 2008.〕 In 2011, Tel Aviv hosted its first Fashion Week since the 1980s, with Italian designer Roberto Cavalli as a guest of honor. ==History== The ATA textile factory was founded in Kfar Ata in 1934 by Erich Moller, a Jewish industrialist from Czechoslovakia. ATA specialized in work clothes and uniforms, reflecting the Zionist and socialist ideology of the time.〔(HREF="url=http://www.eretzmuseum.org.il/e/126/ ">title=Ata: Factory, Fashion Dream ) )〕 Factory production spanned every aspect of garment-making, from thread manufacture to sewing and packaging.〔(HREF="url=http://www.midnighteast.com/mag/?p=15088 ">title=Fashion and Politics – ATA Exhibition at the Eretz Israel Museum ) )〕 The name of the factory was invented by Hebrew novelist S.Y. Agnon. ATA is an acronym for the Hebrew words "Arigei Totzeret Artzeinu" - "fabrics manufactured in our land."〔(The history of Israel, best told in khaki and sandals, Haaretz )〕 In the 1960s, Israeli fashion designer Lola Beer Ebner designed a line of fashionable dresses in bright colors for ATA at the request of Moller's widow.〔(Prêt-à-pioneer, Jerusalem Post )〕 In the early years of the state, Ruth Dayan, wife of Moshe Dayan, founded Maskit, a fashion and decorative arts house that helped to create jobs for new immigrants while preserving the Jewish ethnic crafts of various communities living in Israel. In 1955, Dayan met fashion designer Finy Leitersdorf, who designed clothes and accessories for Maskit for 15 years. The two collaborated on a joint exhibit of Maskit designs at the Dizengoff Museum (today the Tel Aviv Museum).〔 Maskit produced textiles, clothing, objets d’art and jewelry.〔(Breathing new life into legendary Israeli fashion brand Maskit, Haaretz )〕 Today, the Maskit legacy lives on. A two-year journey of research has led the team through the captivating Israeli landscapes to reconnect with Maskit's original artists and roots. At the age of 98, Ruth is working with designer Sharon Tal to revitalize the brand and continue its legacy. The first collection, entitled Hommage 2014, incorporated Maskit's 40 years of activity while bringing it into 2014. The line includes updated versions of Maskit's iconic items, such as the desert coat, the egg coat, and the toga. The collection draws on Maskit's traditional designs while using new materials and the highest quality of fabrics. The Maskit Showroom in Tel Aviv is an impressive tourist attraction, housing collector vintage pieces along with the current collections. Maskit stores can also be found in the Hilton Hotel, Tel Aviv and in beautiful Old Jaffa.〔http://www.maskit.com〕 In 1956, Lea Gottlieb founded Gottex, a high-fashion beachwear and swimwear company that became a leading exporter of designer bathing suits. Israeli fashion has been worn by some of the world's most famous women, among them Jackie Kennedy, Princess Diana, Katharine Hepburn, Elizabeth Taylor and Sarah Jessica Parker.〔(HREF="url=http://pinsndls.com/2010/09/23/from-rags-to-riches-israeli-fashion-rediscovered/ ">title=From rags to riches: Israeli fashion rediscovered ) )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Israeli fashion」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
