Loewe SS24 Women's Collection: Comfort doesn't mean settling for less

Loewe kicked off its Spring-Summer 2024 runway show in Château de Vincennes in Paris this past September. With J.W. Anderson as creative director of the Spanish luxury fashion house, this season saw many exaggerations with an unexpected yet fun twist across the board, as J.W. Anderson is known for. This time around, the collection, which spotlighted the delicate silhouette of the human body, highly emphasized outline and essence with many looks that accentuated the waist and form.  


The fashion house also continued its collaboration with artist Lynda Benglis, the creator behind a series of jewelry pieces and an installation of bronze sculptures. Her work was present at the show as black and gold sculptures were carefully placed to adorn as models made their way down the runway. 


Various pieces made for walking commentary on the hidden hierarchy for practicality and comfort we search for in our everyday looks. But if there’s anything J.W. Anderson taught us this season, it's that practical doesn't mean boring. And oh boy, did he make that clear with vibrant hues of yellow, purple, red on oversized knits, crystalized floral tops, loose semi see-through dresses and black knee-length shorts with a playful pin at the top.  


The collection showed off many extremes from extremely high-waisted pants to extremely oversized loose-knit ponchos with giant gold buttons adorning the front. Here are some of the highlights:

  1. I love the blend of practicality and high fashion. I really enjoy how the pieces look and how they are designed with practicality in mind! I have always been curious about fashion design, and I feel there's a stereotype that it is not designed with everyday wear in mind, but I totally see everyday wear out of these pieces.

  2. Paris Fashion Week is my favorite time of year. I love getting to see all of the unique looks and get inspiration for shopping for my fall closet. Look 21 is my favorite out of the looks you included!

  3. I love the recognition of J.W. Anderson in fashion. I do admire his elegance in simplicity. I see this in his collaborations with Uniqlo too.
