Galia Lahav presents its Fall/Winter 2026 collections: the couture collection Keepsake and the Gala collection Charmed. Designed by Galia Lahav and Sharon Sever, both lines draw inspiration from the nostalgia and intimacy of treasured mementos — those pieces that hold emotion and memory.
Each gown captures the moment a dress becomes part of one’s story. Masterful corsetry, sculptural silk draping, and hand-finished embellishments come together in designs that feel both timeless and strikingly bold.
The Couture Collection, Keepsake — “Where dreams are meant to be held forever,” designed by Galia Lahav and Sharon Sever, draws inspiration from the romance, opulence, and optimism of the American Gilded Age. Each gown captures the grandeur of the era through sculptural silk draping, intricate hand embellishments, and Galia Lahav’s signature corsetry, blending timeless craftsmanship with modern allure. Keepsake celebrates the beauty of treasured memories and the enduring elegance of couture meant to be remembered forever.
A $1 Million Couture Wedding Gown
As part of the Galia Lahav Fall/Winter 2026 Couture Collection, “Keepsake,” the fashion house unveils a creation that redefines luxury bridalwear — a $1 million couture wedding gown crafted in collaboration with Leibish, the world-renowned diamond house celebrated for its rare colored diamonds and fine jewelry.
The gown stands as the pinnacle of artistry and innovation, merging haute couture with fine jewelry in a way never before seen in bridal fashion. At its heart lies a 30-carat natural ruby brooch, an extraordinary jewel of remarkable rarity and value. Designed to be detachable, the ruby transforms after the wedding into a bespoke fine-jewelry piece — a true heirloom, allowing the bride to carry a piece of her love story into the future.
The gown will be available by private appointment only as a one-of-a-kind couture piece, priced at $1 million. For brides seeking a more accessible option, Galia Lahav will also introduce a secondary version featuring lab-grown diamonds and a rental option for the ruby brooch, allowing brides to borrow the heirloom for their special day. More than just a gown, it stands as a masterpiece of legacy — a testament to the belief that true luxury is not only about beauty or craftsmanship, but about creating something that transcends time, emotion, and generations.
“The inspiration behind this gown was the very essence of a keepsake: Something extraordinary, meant to be treasured & passed on,” shares Sharon Sever, Head Designer at Galia Lahav.“It’s not only a dress, it’s history woven in silk and stone – a symbol of love passed on to the next generations.”
A celebration of femininity that shimmers with playful sophistication, GALA Fall/Winter 2026 Collection, Charmed, draws inspiration from the magic found in life’s most delicate moments. Infused with lightness, charm, and youthful allure, the collection speaks to the modern bride who finds beauty in both simplicity and sentiment.
Charmed captures the glow of a late summer afternoon, the quiet romance of a secret garden, and the way childhood dreams of a wedding day evolve into timeless elegance. Each gown is crafted to evoke a sense of wonder — designed not just to be worn, but to become a treasured memory in the story of a bride’s forever.
The Collection embraces soft, romantic silhouettes and organic details — flowing skirts that move like whispers, airy layers of tulle that seem to float, and delicate lace that feels both fragile and enduring. Embroidered blossoms, intricate appliqués, and fluid draping bring each gown to life, infusing every look with an ethereal, dreamlike quality. These elements evoke the magic of fairytales while maintaining the refinement, fit, and craftsmanship that define Galia Lahav’s artistry.
“With Charmed, we wanted to design dresses that feel like they were dreamt into existence,” says Head Designer Sharon Sever. “These gowns are about capturing the enchantment of a moment — a dress that feels as though it belongs to a storybook, yet carries a bride gracefully into her future.”
