Israeli singer Netta Barzilai released her debut Hebrew album “It’s All on Me” on Wednesday, featuring the title track accompanied by a particularly interesting and fashionable music video.

In the new clip, Netta dons a stunning red dress custom-made for her by fashion designer Elizabeth Brown, owner of the MonaLizabeth brand.

The dress, created especially for Barzilai in collaboration with stylist Itay Bezaleli, is prominently featured in the music video for “It’s All on Me” and graces the album cover. Made from luxurious red silk taffeta fabric, the impressive gown boasts a shimmering and regal appearance. It incorporates delicate lace crafted by hand with meticulous attention to detail, adding a romantic and artistic touch to every aspect of the design.

The inspiration for the dress draws from Spanish style, as the music video itself showcases additional Spanish elements such as tomatoes, a fan, Latin dance, and more. Shot in a market setting, the video aims to capture the essence of traditional Spanish atmosphere and culture.

Designer Elizabeth Brown shared her experience working on the project, saying, “Collaborating with Itay Bezaleli and Netta was a creative, exciting, and challenging journey. We created this look in just a day and a half, from the fitting to the final result in the video, under significant time pressure. We had previously worked together designing looks for performances and creating an earlier music video, and this shared experience was crucial to the success of the current project.”

Barzilai’s new album marks a significant milestone in her career, as she ventures into the Hebrew music scene following her rise to international fame after winning the Eurovision Song Contest in 2018 with her hit song “Toy.”

“This is about protecting families, protecting opportunity and protecting a parent’s fundamental right to choose the best educational path for their child,” said Melissa Glaser, executive director of Teach Florida.
“We can confirm that a final, agreed-upon text of the peace deal has been reached and Pakistan is now working closely with both sides to finalize the next steps,” Shehbaz Sharif wrote. “Peace has never been this close as it is now.”
A JNS analysis suggests that since New York City started telling the public only about percentage change in “confirmed” hate crimes year over year, it has suggested no change, but that if it reported data that way about “reported” hate crimes, there would be a 32% increase in anti-Jewish hate crimes in the city from March to May compared to last year.
Advocates say the measure seeking to identify Jewish American soldiers buried under incorrect religious markers overseas remains on track despite the legislative setback.
“The job of a human rights commissioner is to fight bigotry, not participate in it,” Travis Couture, a Republican state representative, told JNS.
The Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs said, after an officer executing a search warrant in connection with the attack was killed, that it is “a heartbreaking reminder that police officers put their lives on the line every single day to keep our communities safe.”
