Hi, today I would like to express my appreciation to senior lifestyle writer Naomi Gutking-Golan for a great article she published in yesterday's Makor Rishon newspaper about "ISRAEL

FASHION ART 1948-2008" album-book". In her article Naomi writes that "the author shows a very deep approach and a very wide scope of knowledge regarding the connection between garments and culture.....add to it over 400 stunning color photos and you'll realise why the book is recommended not only to fashionistas but also to visual culture lovers and to people with artistic and esthetic sensitivities .

Naomi illustrates her article with a lovely Fini Leitersdorf creation for Maskit from the chapter devoted to the use of coins in fashion since the Yemenite and Beduine coin embelished garments to a present-day a-symetric red carpet style gown designed by Shai Shalom. The Maskit picture was taken by Peter Hertsog for a 1968 Export Institute fashion cataloge cover.

At the end of the interview refering to the artistic rose choker I was wearing she inquired "where is this fantastic thing you are wearing from?" - at this point I told her that a photo of the piece designed by Dori Csengeri was in the book as well adding that Dori Csengeri is a very successful artist whose unique jewelry is exhibited in the international arena both in prestigious stores and in magazines. Last year she was invited to do a special collection for Swarowski and in one of the "Sex and the City" programs her earings were featured on Cynthia Nixon seen here in a picture taken by Lea Peled. Phographer of the rose-choker is Tali Shani who had taken the picture originally for an article about my wardrobe in Haaretz daily newspaper . .
