The brand gained attention for their attempt at mediating between contemporary fashion trends and the moral codes of Orthodox Judaism which legislates various modesty requirements for Jewish women.[2][3] In 2014, the brand founders collaborated with a Muslim fashion blogger causing some debate in the Orthodox community.[4][5][6]
