Fashion Comeback
About 15 years ago, the fashion brand Lucci was a favorite among women, who flocked to its store on Shenkin Street. The years passed, the brand disappeared, and now Crazy Line is bringing it back with a rare comeback—a capsule line designed by Yifat, the designer from 15 years ago, who created the collection inspired by her friends, who also appear in the campaign.
The groups:
Everyday Casual – casual wear focused on denim in various cuts, soft woven shirts, and T-shirts.
Black & White – focused on contrast, black-and-white play, stripes, all-white or all-black looks, wide-leg pants, and flowing dresses.
Resort – a collection marking high summer in sandy and desert tones with blue accents, featuring loose, breezy, nonchalant cuts.

The Upgraded Mountain
Tabor Winery launches its Har ("Mountain") series for Passover in a new look. The series, featuring nine wines, was relaunched in January 2025 as part of a strategic move focusing the winery on two leading brands.
Or Nidbach, Tabor’s head winemaker: “The climatic and soil diversity in the different areas where our grapes are grown allows us to produce wines with a variety of characteristics. We carefully select grapes from each area based on its optimal qualities for each variety.”
Roi Harel, head of CBC Israel’s wine division: “The new branding of the Har series reflects the winery’s current direction while maintaining our winemaking tradition. Consumers will enjoy the same wines they know—now with a fresh look.”
For the holiday, a festive gift set is being launched containing Cabernet Sauvignon 2023 (dry red) and Chardonnay 2023 (dry white) from the Tabor series, along with two elegant wine glasses. Tabor Winery (credit: TABOR WINERY.)
