RE-BIRTH

LOEWE SS22
WOMENSWEAR

With Loewe Spring/Summer Collection 22 the body morphs, transforms, twists. Jw Anderson shows us the absolute beauty of free creation and defines new contemporary archetypes.

A new chapter. Loewe Spring/Summer 22 Collection is an experimental statement which marks a new starting point. Visionary Jonathan Anderson breaks the mold formulating a narration where provocation, sensuality and movement are central protagonists. Inspired by Renaissance painter Pontormo, he explores the notions of drape, sculpture and color through twist and turns. The body morphs. It gets altered and distorted: metallic plates, resin bust, denim as new sculpting material. Enveloping volumes are juxtaposed to essential silhouettes. Accessories give of all the incredible power of everyday life as common objects such as bar soap, a candle, an egg, a nail varnish, a rose flower are turned into shoe heels becoming the new fashion fetish. Jw Anderson experiences the absolute beauty of free creation and defines new contemporary archetypes.

“Nevrotic, psychedelic, completely hysterical.”

-JW Anderson
