About the Designer

Amalya Cohen

Bridal Couture Designer

Drawn to fashion design from a young age, Amalya Cohen has worked in bridal couture for over a decade. She trained at fashion houses and bridal salons in Israel and abroad, building a deep, hands-on familiarity with the craft, and a few years ago opened an independent studio in Jerusalem specializing in dresses for brides who observe modesty.

Every gown that leaves the studio is hand-sewn. The beading combines Swarovski stones, glass beads, sequins, and pearls, and is set on laces commissioned specifically from European mills. Base fabrics come from regular suppliers in France and Italy.

Her eye is modern and exacting, drawing on inspiration from many sources. The work balances precision and fine detail with a softness and romanticism in the finish. That pairing is what gives each gown its quiet, luxurious character.

Each dress holds to the requirements that matter most to the studio's clients: a long sleeve, a closed neckline, and an opaque fabric. Alongside the existing pieces in the seasonal collections, brides can also commission a bespoke design, drafted from a blank page to fit their measurements, style, and preferences. Amalya works closely with every bride, attentive to each wish, so that the finished dress feels entirely her own.
