Orthodox Judaism Has Inspired The Most Provocative New Fashion Trend Today With Prairie Dresses
With the conclusion of New York Fashion Week on Friday, it would appear that the world of Little House on the Prairie is the hottest and most provocative new fashion trend today with prairie dresses making a comeback after 150 years, and we have Batsheva Hay to thank for this.
New York fashion designer Hay, who was raised in a Jewish, yet secular family, married Alexei Hay in 2012, and Alexei is an Orthodox Jew, as The Guardian reported. While this is certainly part of the inspiration behind her new prairie dresses, another part of it stems from an incident that occurred in 2016 when she was looking to get a favorite Laura Ashley dress mended.
