Tel Aviv Fashion Week is set to return soon, after a hiatus of more than two years during which no fashion week was held in Israel.
On Monday morning, Motty Reif announced during a casual meeting with industry leaders that Fashion Week would return in October 2025 at a completely new location. During the meeting, Reif addressed previous attempts to bring back Fashion Week, saying, "We wanted to do it last year as well, but it didn't work out because of the war."
In an official story posted to his Instagram account and the Tel Aviv Fashion Week account, Reif confirmed the news and wrote, "Yes, Tel Aviv Fashion Week is coming back and in a big way! Details coming soon." The full program for Fashion Week is still in early stages, and additional details haven't been revealed yet.
As many know, Tel Aviv Fashion Week in its current format was first held in 2011, produced by Motty Reif. The event typically runs for four days, during which approximately 25 shows from various Israeli designers are usually presented.
The last Tel Aviv Fashion Week was held at Hangar 11 in Tel Aviv Port in 2023 and was subsequently postponed due to the Iron Swords War. This October, Tel Aviv Fashion Week is expected to return to our lives for the first time since the war.
In the past, Tel Aviv Fashion Week moved between several locations: it began at the Station complex, moved to the site where TLV Mall was being built, returned to the Station complex, and in recent years was held at Hangar 11 in Tel Aviv Port – and soon it will receive a new location as mentioned.
In its early days, various important international designers exhibited at Fashion Week, including Missoni and Roberto Cavalli. Years later, the decision was made to focus on Israeli designers without the "push" of luxury brands – the best of Israeli fashion.
