We carry the cosmos within the depths of our being, this is the eternal stardust that illuminates our existence.
- Sharon Sever, Head Designer at Galia Lahav
Illuminated by the timeless allure of Paris. Seamlessly blending the majestic history of the Arc de Triomphe with the symbolic brilliance and romance of a star, this collection epitomizes the celestial beauty and profound meaning behind love's radiant journey.
L'etoile draws inspiration from the iconic Arc de Triomphe, a symbol of triumph and unity. Just as the monument stands tall and proud, each exquisite gown in the collection showcases architectural silhouettes, sculptural embellishments, and intricate detailing, reflecting the rich history and grandeur of the landmark and the tradition and know-how of Haute Couture.
While Paris captures the hearts of our house designers Galia Lahav and Sharon Sever, at the heart of L'etoile lies the captivating symbolism of a star. Stars have forever captured the human imagination, reflecting our endless potential, representing hope, guidance, and eternal love. The collection exudes this enchanting energy through delicate celestial motifs, shimmering beadwork, and celestial-inspired fabrics, transforming each gown into a constellation of ethereal beauty.
Galia Lahav’s L'etoile collection celebrates their emotional connection to the City of Love and the everlasting power of love, in which they are paying homage to the iconic beauty of the city in each design that reflects the wearer's inner star, radiating confidence, grace, and the promise of a love story that transcends time in the city that whispers secrets of timeless elegance from every cobblestone and breathes life into every design created in this vibrant tapestry of styles fit for a modern day bride.
L'etoile showcases a range of meticulously crafted bridal gowns, from regal ball gowns adorned with celestial embroidery made from the finest beads and pearls, with their shimmering luster, symbolizing the celestial beauty of stars, to sleek and modern silhouettes reminiscent of shooting stars streaking through the night sky and the architecture of the Eiffel Tower and the pyramid of the Louvre. Each dress tells a unique story, each one embodies a whole different world and captures the essence of a star's ethereal glow and the profound emotions experienced on a wedding day, demonstrating the seamless fusion of Parisian elegance and the unrivaled artistry of Galia Lahav.
