History
Galia Lahav was born in Pinsk, Belarus in 1948. 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. 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, Lahav shared how technology and data-driven approach has helped the brand penetrate the global arena, saying " 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 of all connected consumers."Notable clients and projects
