COLLECTION No. V COLLECTION No. V COLLECTION No. V


Galia Lahav set out to explore the intangible of the five senses. GALA Collection No. 5 took on rhythm, challenging ourselves to bring adagios, crescendos and a symphony of sounds to life. A woman's soundtrack says as much about her style as her signature scent, and Gala's latest looks aim to appease any bride looking to walk, strut and dance to her own unique beat. The latest GALA collection combines an ease and flow to allow for expressive movement with high quality and a fashionforward bend, inspired by music's many genres and icons.

What’s our X­ factor? • We specialise in body contouring and very fitted silhouettes. • We use special blends mach for us, which allows us to provide both beauty and comfort. This fact also makes the garments most fitting! And all fabrics are made exclusively for us . • We invest 20% of our time in research, and to search for new innovative fabric technologic processes that can give an even "finer" aspect to the design. This results in every dress which is a combination of few layers (which is an art by itself), laid upon one another in the perfect way.

The Creative process­ • Everything starts with thorough field work such as:Research and communication with the Pantone company. We try to understand future possible trends of tones, colours and fabrics. Then we usually travel to the fabric exhibitions in Paris and, once picked the tone and fabric, the creative process begins. • We prepare a moodboard and Sharon, the Home designer, starts working on several sketches. From those sketches we select some and begin to cut, fit and see if the figure is flattering and sexy according to our guidelines. • Once everything is in place, we sew and measure again. • One of the most important thing for us is how the garment fits the body, without a doubt, and that is our most acknowledged value. • In the final stage, we decorate the gowns with Swarovski, pearls and custom lace applicants. We have the world's best decorators and their work by itself is a real work of art. It’s like a drawing, which adds richness and has given our gowns it’s signature detailed appearance we love so much.
