Electric energy laces the Loewe Fall/Winter 2021 women’s collection, celebrating creative director Jonathan Anderson’s dynamic creativity. There is never a moment of rest, of lapse, of silence—Loewe does not surpass the bar, but sets a new one entirely with an explosive palette of acrylic pigments, emerald tones complementing crimson, cyan contrasting with mustard. Anderson rewrites staple pieces into modern designs, celebrating feminine energy by reconstructing a contemporary silhouette. Quilted coats feature neckerchief hems; eclectic jackets are exceptionally long, trousers exceptionally cropped.

Tops and dresses are cleanly draped, and masculine tailoring of suede suits is juxtaposed by giant tassels along the hems, a play on classic pieces with Loewe’s emphasis on joy and freedom. The fall season is upon us—and in line with Loewe’s departure from classic cuts, it is to be greeted with a renewed sense of fearlessness, through garments that take pleasure in the existence of the everyday.
