Disabled Israeli military veterans joined professional models on a runway in Tel Aviv on Wednesday, showcasing a collection specially designed around their experiences.
Created by fashion designer Golan Elbaz Frydman, the “Fragments” collection explores themes of rehabilitation and renewal through the lives of veterans who have sustained physical and psychological wounds in conflicts in Gaza, Lebanon and elsewhere.
The show brought the veterans together with professional models, giving them the opportunity to present clothing designed with their experiences in mind.
Through the collection, Frydman seeks to highlight the challenges of recovery while reflecting the strength and resilience of those rebuilding their lives after conflict.
