Hailing from northern Israel, fashion designer Hed Mayner has carved out a distinctive niche for himself on the global stage, regularly presenting his innovative menswear collections at Paris Fashion Week.

With a background steeped in diverse creative pursuits - from leatherwork and jewelry to hand-sewing - Mayner’s path to fashion design was an organic one, culminating in his graduation from Jerusalem’s prestigious Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design in 2012 and further studies at the Institut Français de la Mode in Paris.

Hed Mayner’s design philosophy centers on treating garments as sculptural works, revisiting the essential male wardrobe and blurring the lines of gender and identity.

His signature unisex silhouettes, characterized by wide cuts and custom-made elements, have been lauded for their timeless, spiritually-infused aesthetic, drawing inspiration from traditional OOrthodox Jewish tailoring and military influences.

Mayner’s trailblazing journey has been punctuated by accolades, including becoming the first Israeli designer to showcase at the official Paris Fashion Week calendar in 2017 and winning the prestigious Karl Lagerfeld Prize from LVMH in 2019, solidifying his status as a rising force in the industry.
