Arava Polak

Arava Polak established her eponymous bridal company in 2013 after graduating from WIZO Haifa, Israel’s leading fashion academy, where she concentrated on the luxury and bridal industries. Working from her atelier in Haifa, she designs for the feminine, sophisticated and modern bride, blending Israeli craftsmanship with the finest fabrics and materials. Her collections are distinguished by hand-embroidered laces, delicate floral motifs, nude and ivory hues, and minimalist designs carrying romantic and avant-garde touches; local artisans apply a rigorous handmade process of careful stone setting that produces exclusive, richly textured surfaces.

Each gown is couture-sewn using meticulous local handwork. Polak has been crafting gowns balancing romance and refinement for over a decade, and in 2023 the brand expanded beyond Israel, opening its first United States presence through an exclusive partnership with Boca Raton Bridal & Consultants in Mizner Park, South Florida. She has since become a regular on the New York bridal schedule, with her collections covered by WWD and stocked at Kleinfeld. She presents across two days this season.
