First off, lemme just say, I’ve been watching Anderson’s journey at Loewe for-freaking-ever. It’s been this slow burn, this almost… mad scientist kinda thing. Not in a bad way, though! Think more like a brilliant, slightly unhinged artist, totally digging deep to unearth what Loewe even *is*. He’s not just sketching pretty dresses, you know? He’s *excavating* something. And honestly, sometimes I’m not entirely sure what *that* is, but I’m always, always intrigued.
And the bags? Oh. My. God. The bags. That Puzzle bag? The one that looks like some kinda origami masterpiece? Genius. Pure genius. Seriously, its angular lines and that cuboid shape? You can rock it like a shoulder bag, a crossbody, even a freakin’ clutch or, wait for it, a *pochette*! Talk about versatile! I mean, that bag alone is a testament to Loewe’s ability to, like, totally reinvent itself. It’s not your grandma’s luxury brand, y’know?
Speaking of reinventing, that collab with On? Brilliant! It’s so… unexpected. It shows they’re not afraid to get a little… young and vibrant. Like, “Hey, we can do adventure too!” Plus, that’s a smart move to get a younger, broader audience, if you ask me.
But here’s the thing, and this is just my opinion, okay? Sometimes I look at Loewe’s ready-to-wear, you know, the jackets and all that jazz, and I’m like, “Okay, that’s cool,” but I don’t always *get* it. Like, some of it is just… *expensive*. Like, *really* expensive. Okay, *all* of it is really expensive. But some pieces I’m just not sure I could pull off. You know, like I’d look like I’m trying too hard or something.
But then I see another piece, like a puffer jacket or one of those balloon jackets, and I’m suddenly, like, “Okay, I *need* that in my life.” So, it’s a mixed bag, honestly. But even when I don’t completely *love* something, I still appreciate the artistry, the craftsmanship, the… dare I say it… weirdness.
And speaking of weirdness, like, where is Anderson going *after* Loewe? I mean, the blurb up there says he’s leaving after 11 years, but then, like, it says he’s coming into focus? That’s confusing, maybe it’s AI messing up. Where is he going? Maybe I’m dumb, but the article is kind of hinting at something else. Wherever he goes, I’m gonna be watching.
