Nowadays, if there is one thing that predominates in the unstable fashion industry, as far as design is concerned, it is timelessness. Most designers, no matter how established they are, are heading in more or less the same direction, and that’s curious, since it rarely happens. But why is this? Is it due to the uncertainty that the sector is generating and, consequently, the fear of taking risks? Or is it just a coincidence? Whatever the reason, for some time designers have indeed been educating their clientele and those who from time to time decide to treat themselves to a good piece, that at this point it is better to buy one that is predominant in terms of fabric and silhouette, thus lasting over time and not going out of fashion, rather than one that is based on the trend of the moment. It seems that the argument of what is classic and good never goes out of fashion works, and this looks like something that also influences the designer Gal Nell Dahan, who with talent and courage has decided to enter the game of menswear with all his hopes of winning and becoming someone to be considered in this kind of style.
Many know him already, but for those not yet on the radar, Nell is the Founder and Creative Director of his eponymous brand, which has an ethos centred on craftsmanship, sustainability, and quiet sophistication, and explores the intersection of Middle Eastern and European heritages to create menswear that defies convention. And, as evidence, here is his debut collection, corresponding to the Fall/Winter 2025 season, in which, just by glancing at the lookbook, one can see how each of them has been carefully developed and handcrafted, using high-quality fabrics. The images speak for themselves, they exude elegance and avant-garde, and surely when some men see it, they will immediately want to get one of the various suits that make up the line, all made with Italian fabrics; or the generally oversized and long length coats, except for an aviator style jacket with pockets on the front, that are placed over knitted garments that stand out for the details that make them special items and are combined with pleated trousers.
The final touch to the fifteen looks that make up Dahan’s first work is, as usual, the accessories, represented in the form of briefcase-style bags and belts, whose function is to adjust the clothes to the body, thus creating a silhouette that is pleasing to the eye; and the square-toed slippers.
From now on, timeless fashion has a new designer to keep an eye on.
