Get To Know…LOEWE

Spanish luxury brand LOEWE opened its first Texas location exclusively in Highland Park Village.

LOEWE was founded in Madrid in 1846 by leather artisans. Since the origin of the brand, it has been recognized for its exceptional craftsmanship, high-quality materials, and dedication to creative expression. The brand’s leather products, including handbags, accessories, and clothing, often feature distinctive designs and meticulous attention to detail.

Despite the brand’s Spanish heritage, the name’s pronunciation comes from their technically gifted leathermaker Enrique Loewe Roessberg, who arrived at the company from Germany. Despite the temptation to pronounce the name phonetically, the correct pronunciation is “lo-weh-vay.”

In 2013, Jonathan Anderson took on the role of Creative Director at LOEWE, injecting new life and energy into the esteemed luxury house. Anderson’s appointment marked a turning point for LOEWE, propelling it into a new era while preserving its rich heritage. His distinct design style, a playful blend of modernity and craftsmanship, has redefined the brand’s identity. Under Anderson’s creative stewardship, LOEWE has produced collections that captivate the fashion world with their boldness and originality. Anderson revitalized LOEWE, blending traditional craftsmanship with contemporary design. He introduced iconic pieces like the “Puzzle Bag” and reinvigorated the brand’s image with innovative runway shows and collaborations.

“Craft is the essence of LOEWE. As a house we are about craft in the purest sense of the word. This is our where our modernity lies, and it will always be relevant.”
– Jonathan Anderson, LOEWE Creative Director
