Web Bonus: More shopping in the Gan

Return to main article

Nait

Nait Rozenfelder’s unique, intimate fashion shows held in small venues (local restaurants and homes) have a cult-like following, but its her array of double-collared jackets, kimono-like dresses, and flower-patterned blouses that steal the show (10 Mikveh Yisrael St.; 011-972-3-560-0402).

Kisim

Browse the entire selection of Yael Rosen’s ultra-thin, locally made leather handbags—pieces of which are sold throughout the U.S. and Europe (8 HaHashmal St.; 011-972-3-560-4890; www.kisim.com).

Shine

Here, designer Alice Dahan stocks her combat-chic pieces: distressed jeans, dark-layered tanks, and cotton tissue T-shirts, alongside clothing and accessories from international and local designers alike, such as Freitag, Vered Elrom, and Ilaria Nistri (12 HaRakevet Street St.; 011-972-3-560-1658).

Shani Bar

This tiny boutique houses designer Shani Bar’s entire collection of shoes (from pumps to sandals), roomy purses and Wrangler-style belts—all designed in her second-floor atelier with mostly Italian leathers (Mikveh Yisrael 3, 011-972-3-560-5981).

T+L Tip

Gan HaHashmal’s two dozen businesses have banded together to form Collective 6940 (www.6940.info). Named after the area’s official position on Tel Aviv’s municipal map and taking a cue from Israel’s kibbutz-era past, the Collective sponsors sales, holiday parties, seasonal fashion shows, and after-hours shopping sprees.
