Israeli fashions for religious women

My town has seen a proliferation of stores catering to religious women; I am sharing some highlights with my loyal readers.





For the first few years after I made aliyah, the only colors in women's clothes were beige, brown, and gray. Then things improved, and for a season or two you could find kelly green and hot pink. What hasn't changed is the way Israeli designers, especially those targeting the religious community, manage to combine such a bizarre assortment of colors, shapes and fabrics into one outfit.





Note: I am not making any statement about the "tzniut" standards of these items.
