For the women who “celebrate getting dressed every day,” Kobi is known for his unique designs and his love for details.

In 2015, Kobi launched his eponymous ready-to-wear label. The label embodies a European sensibility and is recognized by its crafted artisan details and modern femininity. With a design philosophy that aims to elevate the everyday, Kobi’s collections are made with luxurious fabrics and beautiful hand-worked embellishments. Accredited for creating an aspirational yet accessible label, Kobi bridges the gap between timelessness and trend and continues to build a dynamic brand with a global reach, through smart design and a distinct point of view. . In 2016, Kobi became a member of the CFDA.

Kobi also started designing for his longtime favorite French label, UNGARO, in 2021. His first collection for the label was Resort 21/22.

Kobi’s other passion in life is mentoring and developing the future of fashion. He is actively involved with cultivating his alma mater’s emerging fashion students, being a mentor to Savannah College of Art and Design students, and being a role model to his two daughters, Mika and Gali.
