A Glamorous Evening that United Fashion and Courage

Miami’s fashion scene recently witnessed an unforgettable evening as world-renowned designer Elie Tahari unveiled The Elie Tahari Collection Runway Show on November 6, 2025, at St. Thomas University. The event went beyond a display of luxury design—it was a heartfelt tribute to courage, compassion, and the strength of women who serve.

In collaboration with Soireee Events and Yedidim, the show marked the official launch of Elie Tahari’s initiative to help the women of the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF)—a powerful program providing clothing and financial assistance to female soldiers in need. The evening radiated elegance and emotion, merging fashion with purpose in an atmosphere of unity and gratitude.

Fashion with a Purpose

The runway featured fourteen models, including St. Thomas University students, professional models, and two female IDF soldiers—symbolizing resilience and grace. Each piece from Tahari’s latest collection embodied his signature sophistication through refined tailoring, luxurious fabrics, and timeless allure.

“Fashion has the power to inspire change and honor courage,” said Elie Tahari during the event. “Through this show, we celebrated women whose bravery reminds us that beauty is also strength.”

The evening beautifully blended philanthropy and artistry, raising awareness for organizations that support IDF veterans and their families while launching Tahari’s initiative to empower women through fashion and compassion.

Elie Tahari Honró a las Mujeres en Combate con un Desfile de Moda Estelar en la Universidad de St. Thomas

Una Noche Glamurosa que Unió Moda y Valentía

La escena de la moda en Miami vivió una noche inolvidable cuando el diseñador Elie Tahari presentó The Elie Tahari Collection Runway Show el 6 de noviembre de 2025 en la Universidad de St. Thomas. Más que un espectáculo de lujo, fue un tributo al coraje, la compasión y la fuerza de las mujeres que sirven con honor.

En colaboración con Soirée Events, Tahari mostró su estética icónica mientras rendía homenaje a las valientes soldados del Ejército de Defensa de Israel (IDF). La velada combinó elegancia y emoción, destinando los fondos recaudados a brindar apoyo económico y vestimenta a estas heroínas.

Moda con Propósito

En la pasarela desfilaron catorce modelos, entre ellas estudiantes de la Universidad de St. Thomas, modelos profesionales y dos mujeres soldado del IDF, símbolos de resiliencia y gracia. Cada diseño reflejó el estilo sofisticado y atemporal característico de Tahari, elaborado con telas de lujo y detalles exquisitos.

“La moda tiene el poder de inspirar cambios y de honrar el valor,” expresó Elie Tahari durante el evento. “Con este desfile celebramos a mujeres cuya valentía nos recuerda que la belleza también es fortaleza.”

La noche unió arte y filantropía, elevando conciencia sobre las causas que apoyan a veteranos del IDF y sus familias, reafirmando que la moda puede transformar vidas.

Fe y Moda en Armonía

El evento fue coorganizado y presentado por Tobi Rubinstein, autora galardonada y fundadora de The House of Faith & Fashion. Reconocida por fusionar espiritualidad y estilo. Rubinstein destacó la importancia de que las marcas de moda reflejen integridad y conciencia social.

“La fe y la moda juntas nos recuerdan que lo que vestimos—y las marcas que apoyamos—expresan más que estilo; revelan nuestros valores,” afirmó Rubinstein. “Fue un honor representar a una marca como Elie Tahari, que lidera con propósito y corazón.”

Elie Tahari: Un Legado de Elegancia y Visión

La historia de Elie Tahari es un ejemplo de innovación y perseverancia. Desde que popularizó el top tipo tubo en los años 70 hasta redefinir el guardarropa femenino moderno. Tahari construyó un imperio de moda valorado en miles de millones, basado en la elegancia y el empoderamiento.

Con más de 920 tiendas alrededor del mundo, su marca sigue siendo sinónimo de estilo eterno y artesanía impecable. Hoy, su creatividad tiene un nuevo propósito. Todas las ventas en línea benefician a las mujeres soldado del IDF, reafirmando que la verdadera moda no solo embellece—también inspira humanidad.

Una Noche de Belleza, Valentía y Gracia

Entre celebridades, estudiantes y líderes de la comunidad, el desfile de Elie Tahari en la Universidad de St. Thomas se convirtió en una celebración de fuerza, compasión y esperanza.

La comunidad de la moda en Miami fue testigo de que el verdadero lujo no solo está en las telas o los cortes, sino en el espíritu y la valentía de las mujeres que inspiran cada creación.
