Israeli fashion designer Albert Elbaz passed away today (Sunday) as a result of the corona virus, and he is 59 years old. He died at a hospital in Paris. Elbaz, a graduate of the Shenkar School of Fashion Design, launched a new brand under the name "AZ Factory" last year, during the couture fashion week in Paris.

"I lost not only a colleague, but a beloved friend," said Johan Rupert, chairman of the Richmont Group, the corporation responsible for launching Elbaz's brand new brand. He is a man of extraordinary talent. "

Elbaz was born in Casablanca, Morocco and immigrated to Israel with his family when he was a baby.

He moved to Holon, where he grew up and studied.

After graduating from Shenkar Design School, he moved to New York to develop his fashion career.
