Israel, a little country on the Mediterranean Sea, known for its cutting edge technology, great beaches and the occasional turf war with the neighbors, has now begun to make their mark in the world of high fashion. Known as the, “Mediterranean metropolis that never sleeps,” Tel Aviv, the largest city in Israel, boasts some of the most exclusive and innovative designers. Featured in last years’ World Fashion Chicago 2008 at Millennium Park, Tel Aviv Couture, a local showroom, created an unstoppable buzz showing pieces never before seen in the US. If you missed your chance then, don’t get your American Apparel leggings in a twist. This Friday, June 19th from 12-8 p.m and Saturday, June 20th from 11a.m-6 p.m at Galleria Unico located at 44. E Superior, Tel Aviv Couture will be hosting Chicago’s largest ever Israeli trunk show and sample sale featuring more than 20 Israeli designer labels. Admission is complementary and 5% of all proceeds will be donated to the Breast Cancer Network of Strength.
