Lowe announced today that Jonathan Anderson would leave his role as a creative director. For ten years only, Anderson inspected a transformative decade for the Spanish label, during which he took it in one of the most identified names in fashion from a small leather home home, and of course an internal formula preferred. Anderson’s tenure in Lowe would not be remembered for a unique beauty or the only IT product (although they were also), but for his habit for continuous development.
Anderson’s early years in Lowe were defined by his charm with crafts; He honored the label’s service with leather with leather and signed the most identified on the runway. Then, in the Spring 2022 show, the first, Lowe became an experimental, ideological thing after the Kovid -19 epidemic lockdown, where he discovered all aspects of contemporary life; The inability to describe “fake” from “fake” from our passion and our growing disability with the screen is giving these ideas gravitas with its clothes.
Turning back, Anderson’s story in Lowe is full of attractive contradictions – hand vs. machine, esoter artist cooperation and internet Catnip Celebrity Front rows, familiar, wearable clothes or dresses as an object – which he completely hugged. Anderson said at that time, “We had an epidemic, and now we have to separate from it.” “I think this is a moment of experiment. If you are going to reset after this period, you need to allow a new aesthetics to give birth. Start again. “These are some of the most important themes of Anderson in Lowe, as have been remembered by us.
Hand vs. Machine
One of Anderson’s most compelling and defined dicotomy is a hand-bunned machine-made. Till the epidemic, till the epidemic, Anderson underlined the artisan and craft-centered heritage of Lowe-so his debut was the leather swatch in the ready-to-wier’s collection and Removes leather peeling From the top to emphasize the onset of label leather. After the epidemic, his interest in craft developed in a curiosity for technology, not more often relevant in interaction with nature. Think of the screen placed on the coat for your spring 2023 Menswear show – one with sneakers and grass growing out of the coat – which had videos of birds of birds on sunset, tropical fish and flowers. His collapse also look at the staining floral print in the 2023 collection and also in his spring 2023 shows in the fiberglass anthrium tops, which questioned our ability to distinguish between real and fake in technology and internet era. His viral pixelated hoodi was also the most famously worn by an $ AP Rocky. Most depiction of this special contradiction? The way their ceramic body plates fall from 2020-the first post-pandemic show evolved to the Plastic-Y from 2022-Rastim Pre-Pandemic Collection-Spring 2022. -Jos Krius-Anazeta
Clothes vs. Can you wear too?
Anderson’s tenure in Lowe is like seeing a crazy scientist’s slow descendant-it is not a scientist, but a designer is just to completely lock-in digging that can be fashion. For its first two collections-Menswear and then Women’swear-Lineup was straight: T-shirts, straight-leg trousers (cuffs for men with the 90s, oversized cuffs of cuffs for men, and artistic bound self-belts for women), and beautiful, no-nursery knots. Anderson was working through a kind of pointed bohemian artist aesthetics, which looked inherent in the 1980s – his texture, color, and print decade was very outstanding, while his silhouette was often layered with long pants, chunky jewelry, patchwork, and analyzed clothes, which were loaded with fabrics (
As the seasons wore, its silhouette gradually started uncontrolled and exploding; Fabrics and T-shirts and shorts do half floating from the body, bright jackets from metal sheets, strange leggings with rafal opening on the knees, mummy bandids are holding half-a-clothing “balloon” against the body. If Anderson can understand a way to insert something But The body (or against it, or through it, or next to it, or, or, or …) then it was the appropriate game for a strut below the runway. -Ae Garcia-Furtado
These shoes are made for walking. Ceci n’est pas une shoe
Anderson hit some IT-shoe styles; Sometimes wildly popular due to their wear and versatility, and other times due to their impossibility, wildly viral is fine. He started the ballet runner in 2019, a smooth, ultra-flat sneaker with elastic around the ankle, which originated in the classic ballet flat. Probably because it was released just before the epidemic, when suddenly everyone was looking for rest above everyone, the shoe was a quick sensation. Other shoes were practical but extremely strange, such as ankle shoes were a loafer front and splashed with a minuscule kitteen’s heel or high-handicular sneakers, curls on toe like a yogini’s shoe. Then there were flights to Wamimi: legs a blanket, swadded in leather like a lifestyle mouse-size heels, nonsked, stepping on the balloon, steering on the balloon, sharp pump, strapped sandals organized by a bottle of nail polish, or once a nail, or a nail through a broken egg. The eternal question for Anderson seems to be: when a shoe is not a shoe?
Wsper set vs. Internet boyfriends
Last year, who can forget the Luve Fall 2024 Mains Show with a herd of internet boyfriend? Thirst trap … wrong, Esoteric From Jamie Dornan to Omar Apollo and Manu Rios, everyone’s moving images were also introduced on the walls of the show, along with the men’s icography and paintings of men collided by artist Richard Hawkins. “An algorithm of masculinity” is how Anderson describes the show, which is intellectually consumed by men’s presence, and is consumed by the Internet nowadays. It was the most surprising combination of esoteric art, which she decorates her sets with a sculpture by Linda Benglis for Spring 2024, pictures by Albert York for 2024, which is for almanac artistic articles for 2022 mentor by Macashe and Edgar Mosa, which is for front-comment, wireless-friendly. This is a story about Lowe’s high-nime appeal under Jonathan Anderson, yes, but also their ability to connect with many pockets of culture simultaneously. -Jcu
Fan Favorite Vs. Deep deduction cooperation
On the subject of the range, consider Anderson’s product cooperation. The most famous under his watch, Lowe repeatedly participated with very dear Studio Ghibali, kept picturesque creatures with his hit films My Neighbor Totoro And spirited Away On bags and clothes. But then there are artistic inclination of Anderson, which in many cases changed the lowway into a fashion brand equal to a hidden gem contemporary art gallery. The T-shirt he made with the functions of David Woznarovies in support of the visual AIDS, or the image of the artist taken by his guru and lover Peter Hujar created people, whose work is an attraction of Anderson (last year his Spring 2025 Mennswier Show invitation was a print of one of his photos). See William Morris in 2017, Kane Price in 2020 and John Brainard in 2020. In Lowe, Anderson certainly offered its proper stake of things with a large -scale pop culture appeal, but he also ensured that everyone should play love for a good artistic deep cut, only with the right amount of pretense. -Jcu
Fickle vs. Serious
Anderson’s reputation to be a serious, designer designers are definitely well earned. Their collections are high-concept, execution is impeccable, and they always have a well-designed soundbite. To emphasize the pursuit of his passion and high arts, he established the Lowe Craft Award in 2016 to highlight the importance of crafts in different types of different types. By 2024, the winner will get 50,000 euros. “This is something that I really believe, the idea that the craft can tell us something about ourselves,” he said in 2023. It quickly became a prestigious award for artisans around the world: there were 4,000 entries last year. But Anderson includes multitids, and he balanced it with a playful side that could sometimes be a lowly foolish. He launched Ibisa of Lowe Paula in 2017 as a way to pay homage to a small mythological boutique on the Spanish Balyik Island, with summer-redi offerings such as cookie statement in neon colors, sunglasses, and the beach were made and chopped. His home and perfume collection proved equally tongue-in-galas with candles and perfumes, which smelled tomatoes, earth, water or even marijuana. There is a place on social media where he was prudent, where Lowe Tikok was engaged with almost every trend which was always funny and never craving: a dark green puzzle bag flying the bag as a drone flying on a mountain. WickedThe background plays “Defiting Gravity”, or a meme that says “my phone accidentally spreads water on it” in which the phone looks to shop on the website. -LGF
Challengers Vs. Weird
There was quite 2024 with Anderson Challengers And WeirdHe prepared costumes for two films. While the two release was directed by Luka Guadagnino and written by Justin Curitzes, they were completely different in plots and treatment and, at their core, display two signatures Anderson contradictions. Their time for clothes is a passion for time, which was particularly relevant by the source of era-rich pieces. Weird Stars Daniel Craig and Drew Stark (included underwear) and their unclear “may be at any time in the 2010s” Style for Style ChallengersWhich included everything from stained nike tennis clothes to channel aspadrils-and that a JFK Junior-inspired “I said” T. William S. Buroz adaptation also had a clear ease in the world of a Zandaya -led summer blockbuster against his esoteric, Indie self at home. -Jcu
Some things never change
Nevertheless, there is an exception to every rule, and while Anderson’s decade-long term in the leuway is actually filled with contradictions, there are some elements of the Irish designer’s ovre that exist. See above.
