This show brought back so many memories from my trip to Israel in 2013. The collection was inspired by their father who was a soccer player during his years in the Israeli Army. Even some necklaces contained dirt from the soccer field their father played at in Israel. What I love so much about working for Ovadia & Sons is their strong family ties. This Fall/Winter Collection emphasized that and showed how it truly is a family brand. Their father was in attendance along with many other family members who hugged and praised the brothers backstage post show.
Ovadia and Sons FW16 NYFWM
I spent Tuesday afternoon at the Skylight Clarkson covering the Fall Winter 2016 collection for Ovadia and Sons. Shimon and Ariel create truly remarkable clothing, with such attention to detail and fabric.
The brothers weren't the only twins in the show. Twin models Torey and Khorey McDonald matched in pin stripe suits. This made fore some fun photos on my part.
Celebrities attendees included Victor Cruz, Devon Windsor, Colton Haynes, Eric Rutherford, Matt Harvey, Neil Patrick Harris, David Burtka and Vincent Piazza. Many came back backstage prior to the show to wish the brothers luck. After the show, they all came swarming back to rave about all the looks they can't wait to wear. Neil joked he "finally felt like a real model" as models politely asked for selfies and photographers snapped profusely.
