Loewe and the Strange Beauty of Youth
A moment full of discoveries and questions like adolescence is already rich in themes for creating a collection, and in Loewe's case this moment has a rebellious flavor and rave energy in Ibiza, which Anderson always went to while on vacation summer with his family, for a young Irishman discovering his sexuality amidst an inhospitable environment (Let's remember that Northern Ireland only approved same-sex marriage in 2020), living an experience of freedom was the key to be turned in your story.
Photography was yet another form of experimentation in collaboration with David Sims, a German photographer who has a unique look at nightlife in major capitals, capturing the freedom and quirky beauty of diverse styles.
A collection rescues a curious essence of youth in experimenting with shapes and colors, breaking taboos and paradigms in a men's collection that emphasizes unusual points, almost as a precise framework for imagery questioning with necklines and cutouts that emphasize nipples and knees , as well as the exploration of light and fluid fabrics in gowns and dresses creating asymmetrical overlays.
The clubber/rave theme becomes increasingly explicit from the choice of vibrant color palette and the use of extravagant appliqués, as well as psychedelic prints that create textures and strategic dimensions. The accessories cohesively finish off each of the pieces, in a fun and "cartoonesque" way, necklaces in the shape of fruits, vegetables and geometrics and round glasses with colored frames, on Sneakers feet in high-volume neon.
