I am so glad to finally be posting this today. I was so distracted with my matriculation exams lately so I hardly had time to write. Disappointingly, it took me more time than I imagined to recover from the matriculation exams and the pressure. However, one thing I managed to incorporate in my busy schedule was drawing my fashion illustrations during every spare moment I had. Thus, now when I am relaxed, I can now post some of my creations from this busy period in my life. These are the illustrations from my last year of high school:
Also, I wanted to share a couple of other things with you that I am excited about. The first thing concerns the biggest teen magazine in Israel, "Maariv La'noar" which chose to feature me as their "talented reader" and posted my drawing. I am really happy about this. Here is my drawing:

The second thing that I was really thrilled about and wanted to share with you is that I am working on my first lingerie collection. Guess what ? It is going to be made out of recycled materials. I am going to present it next month as my final art project for my graduating art exhibition. I really hope it is going to be perfect. At the moment, I am working on it and designing it step by step.
Have a great weekend and don't forger to follow us on Facebook : fashionscissors

Wedding gown inspired by Spanish synagogues. Designer: Levi Shenhav.
Recently I had the pleasure of going to see a beautiful
exhibit called, “Here comes the Bride” at Beit Hatfutsot
– The Museum of the Jewish People in Tel Aviv. The exhibit was actually a
project that was created through a collaboration between the Fashion Design Department
of Shenkar College of Engineering and Design and Beit Hatfutsot. Fourteen third
year students studying Fashion were asked to participate in the project and design
a wedding gown inspired by the Jewish community from each of their family
backgrounds. The results were amazing. The students created dresses inspired by
synagogues around the world, Jewish traditions, various items of Judaica including
prayer shawls, teffillin and mezuzot to name a few, jewelry, and even musical
instruments. The different Jewish cultures
represented in the dresses included Spanish, Greek, Iraqi, Moroccan, Yemenite,
German, Polish, and Algiers Jews. The dresses were beautifully and delicately made
by using fine materials such as Chiffon, Silk, Organza, beads, crystals, and leather.
It is clear from viewing these beautiful
works of art that each and every student involved in this project invested many
hours and days of intense sewing, beading, pattern making and fitting of the
garments.The work is extremely detail
oriented producing very special and unique dresses.I
deeply recommend going to see this one of a kind exhibition particularly since
the designs are very original and the dresses are just breathtaking.
