Mifal HaPais (Israel's National Lottery Association) is launching, for the sixth year, the "Fashion Designers Incubator" which helps emerging Israeli designers and supports the creation of new garment collections. 

The professional committee will judge the submissions, and choose amongst the independent designers and up and coming fashion brands those to receive a bursary of up to 120,000 NIS. The grant supports the designing and production of the new fashion collection and the creation of initial volume of garments. Likewise, the winners of the competition are going to be mentored by leading Israeli professionals in the field, both in business and creative aspects of collection development. 

This year, due the COVID-19 pandemic, the designers will be asked to reflect on sustainability, the environment, and local industry. 

The new collections will premiere at the Tel Aviv Fashion Week, which will take place in March, 2021.
