The 10 best Jonathan Anderson for Loewe red carpet moments

In an era that can only be categorised as Fashion-Does-Musical-Chairs, Jonathan Anderson’s departure from Loewe wasn’t exactly unexpected, but hearts noticeably sank when the announcement was made.

With Demna off to Gucci and Donatella stepping down at Versace, it’s a strange time for the industry as we shift into a new order.

You may also likeAfter 11 years at the helm of the Spanish label, Anderson will undoubtedly be remembered for his eclectic, surrealistic pieces that won the hearts of the fashion set.

His impact on fashion has been quite profound. He became known for seamlessly marrying the avant-garde with the utterly wearable. He pushed the envelope, and generated an almost cult-like following dedicated to his quirky balloon heels and iconic puzzle bags.

The brand also sponsored the 2024 Met Gala with plenty of stars sporting Loewe on the red carpet, often dubbed the Fashion Oscars.

The Loewe AW25 CollectionCelebrity fans included Zendaya, Chloe Sevigny, Emma Corrin and Greta Lee. The Loewe fan was slightly edgy, adored fashion and made red carpet choices that wouldn’t fail to spark joy.

In a statement, Anderson said: “While reflecting on the last 11 years, I have been lucky enough to be surrounded by people with the imagination, the skills, the tenacity and the resourcefulness to find a way to say ‘yes’ to all my wildly ambitious ideas.”

Fashion’s Fashion Features Writer Tania Leslau added: “His distinctive designs strike a balance between experimental and wearable, blending clean lines with everyday functionality. His impact on leather goods has been especially notable – the Puzzle bag, introduced in 2015, quickly became a modern icon.”
