7th ELOHIM is a fashion brand that has a deeper representation that many, on first instance, would not understand.
Created in 2010, 7th Elohim branches through many different avenues including fashion, music, sport and art. The UK brand is inspired deeply by African Culture from the way it is structured and everything surrounding. Every item of clothing represents a piece of African Culture, from the logo itself which has tribal marking across its face, to the subtly added ‘African tattoo’ across the legs and arms of their tracksuits. Such details which create what it is to be one of the most creative upcoming fashion brands in the UK today.
So to the question many of you may be asking…. what does 7th Elohim mean?
The word Elohim, by definitiion means: ‘a name for God’ It is one of the most common names for God in the Old Testament, starting in the very first verse: “In the beginning [Elohim] created the heavens and the earth” …
It is a grammatically plural noun for Gods, which brings in how ‘7th’ was added to the name – in full meaning – The 7th God. The number 7 was chosen due to how it is symbolised and what it represents – ‘perfection, security, safety and rest’ – and of course we all know about the lucky number 7!
