Beschreibung:

Molidor fabric sheet deisgned by Roji Ben Yossef. The sheet was taken from a dress. Wide stripes in purple, pink and orange. Rojy Ben Yoseph was born in Bulgaria and immigrated with her family to Israel in 1948. Her father founded an undergarments company, and Rojy, who saw the future in export, searched for materials for an original collection. One day a marketing salesman for a small factory in Nahariya - Moller Textile - arrived with samples of towel fabrics. Ben Yoseph immediately recognized the potential of the cheap, simple fabric, and since Moller Textile was in financial difficulties, they agreed to carry out unorthodox experiments and produce a range of loud colored fabrics. Ben Yoseph was looking for colors that could represent the landscape, climate and human spirit of Israel and its heterogonous society, and eventually chose strong colors: black, orange, turquoise and yellow. Ben Yoseph 's designs were extremely popular both in Israel high society and abroad, and Rikma became one of the most important and successful fashion designers in Israel. It later produced Kaffiyah fabric dresses, and a collection inspired by Talit fabrics. Ben Yoseph cooperated with artists such as Ruth Tzarfati Shternshus and Ziona Shimshi. 104X143 cm. Very good condition. Slight flaws in margins.
