Model, Who’s The Face Of Chanel, Starts Observing Shabbat

Shlomit Malka is making religion even more fashionable. The stunning model and Israeli television host has nearly 400K followers on Instagram and has recently started connecting more to her Jewish spirituality.

She now keeps Shabbat — she doesn’t use her phone or go out — and makes Kiddush at home. She wears her Moroccan and Ukrainian heritage with pride, occasionally posting about each one on Instagram.

Shlomit Malka has caught the eye of major fashion brands — she’s been the face of Chanel, Lancôme, Ralph Lauren and Bershka. In 2013, she was one of the 10 highest paid models in Israel. She now lives in New York.

Shlomit Malka is showing that Judaism isn’t just beautiful on the outside, it’s deeply meaningful on the inside too.
