batsheva

Launched in 2016 by former lawyer Batsheva Hay, the eponymous New York-based label reinterprets traditional American womenswear with a contemporary and often subversive sensibility. Hay’s designs draw from a wide range of historical references, from Victorian gowns and prairie dresses to the modest dressing of her own Orthodox Jewish background, reimagining them in unexpected fabrics and prints. The brand’s signature puff-sleeved, high-necked dresses in floral cottons, metallic lames, and bold patterns have garnered a cult following for their blend of nostalgia, femininity, and irreverence.
