Loewe
Loewe, pronounced lo-weh-vay, was founded in Spain as a leather making collective in 1846. With a keen focus on leather goods as well as meticulously crafted ready-to-wear and accessories, Loewe is firmly one of the world’s most established luxury brands. Countless generations of tastemakers throughout history, including Ernest Hemingway and Sophia Loren, have embraced the label’s distinct approach to leather making, heritage style, and craft. In 2013, Irish powerhouse designer J.W. Anderson was appointed as creative director of Loewe.
Under J.W. Anderson's distinct direction, Loewe has further embraced its dedication to handicraft. Elements of traditional crafting techniques and folk art such as traditional basket weaving techniques and playful animal motifs are often depicted in Loewe luggage and Loewe accessories. The label’s street style mainstay puzzle bag shows off the house’s illustrious tradition of luxury leather making. Countless years of leather mastery thoughtfully passed from one artisan to another goes into each Loewe piece. Other product categories have found mainstream popularity as well. Loewe sunglasses are frequently seen in music videos and street style photos alike.
