History

Galia Lahav was born in Pinsk, Belarus in 1948.[7] Lahav emigrated with her family to Israel in 1957, and grew up in southern Israel, in the city of Ashkelon. She taught crafts at a public school in Ashdod, until beginning to dedicate herself to a fashion business full-time at the age of 36, after giving birth to her youngest child.[3] In 2005, after operating for more than 2 decades in the Israeli market, Galia's youngest son, Idan Lahav, had joined the company as the CEO and helped expand the company's operations to the international market. In a Forbes interview,[8] Lahav shared how technology and data-driven approach has helped the brand penetrate the global arena. "Galia Lahav continues to look to the paradoxes of the connected consumer to guide its data-driven, creative-centric approach, forging innovative inroads deeper into the ever-expanding social worlds of the most demanding (and fashionable) of all connected consumers."
