Yigal Azrouël launched his eponymous women's wear label in New York in 1998 to critical acclaim. Azrouël defines his signature aesthetic using high-quality fabrics to drape structured, ultra-feminine, modern silhouettes with a precise attention to detail. Born and raised in Israel of French–Moroccan descent and having traveled to locations metropolitan and remote, Yigal Azrouel draws inspiration from everything and everywhere: art, culture, architecture, nature and his hometown, New York City, where the company continues to produce 90% of the collection locally.
