Loewe is a global brand, part of the world’s leading luxury group LVMH. Loewe designer handbags are loved by many consumers for their superior long-lasting style and quality. The seductive touch of leather of unrivaled sheen, suppleness and softness of Loewe’s products is now infused with modern glamour.
The Loewe Amazona Bag
From this post, you will get ample information about Loewe and its inspiring evolution. So, are you ready?
Loewe’s entrance into the fashion industry
Loewe, a Spanish fashion house, was founded in a modest Atelier in Madrid about 1872. The origin of Loewe may be traced back to 1872, when the German artisan Heinrich Loewe Rössberg arrived in a leather goods factory on Calle Lobo (now Calle Echegaray) in Madrid, to develop his fashion label.
Loewe was born 20 years later, with the first fresh store opening in Spain’s capital, on Principe de Madrid Street. And 13 years later, by order of Alfonso XIII, he became the Supplier to the Royals due to his immense reputation among fans of luxury products.
Loewe stores were opened in nations such as England and Japan in 1963. Similarly, the brand’s expansion into women’s ready-to-wear premium apparel, as well as Vicente Vela’s design of its famous emblem, contributed to its reputation.
The first ready to wear line
Loewe bags were spotted on the likes of Ava Gardner during a tour to Spain with her first husband Frank Sinatra around the middle of the 20th century. Loewe debuted its first ready-to-wear line in 1965, and five years later, the company commissioned Spanish artist Vicente Vela to create a logo – the famous monogram of four rolling L’s – that is still in use today.
The lucky steps with Amazona
1975 signified the start of a new era in Spanish society. After General Francisco Franco’s death, Spain started its transformation from dictatorship to liberal democracy. Loewe, one of the country’s leading luxury fashion labels at the time, contributed to this dramatic rise in democracy by designing the Amazona, a flexible sporting bag that perfectly fitted the lifestyle change of the Spanish lady.
The Loewe Puzzle Bag
Despite its top two handles and neatly rectangular frame, the Amazona was designed in the 1970s as an accessory suited to the increasing in female labor in the workplace.
Puzzle: A sign of class
Just over a year into his tenure, artistic director Jonathan W. Anderson introduced a substantial handbag to the Loewe collection, one that provided an excellent display of the brand’s craftsmanship.
Hence, the Puzzle bag made its debut during the men’s spring 2015 presentation in Paris. The Puzzle, like all Loewe bags, is handmade in Madrid from about nine pieces of leather that have been expertly patchworked together.
The bag, which is available in calfskin, pebbled calfskin, and goatskin in regular, small, mini, and nano sizes, didn’t take long to appear on the classiest influencers and culture-makers.
Whether it’s a fashion show, exhibition, debuts, or an elite party, you will see Puzzle. People like to carry it!
The Gate enhanced stardom
Saddle-shaped purses appeared on the models walking down Lowe’s spring 2018 catwalk, presumably destined for It-bag stardom.
The Gate purse, so named because a mechanical hinge holds the leather clasp in place, is adored for its understated elegance.
Amazing the market with Basket
The Loewe Basket Bag
The market hasn’t been the same since this incredibly seductive addition to the Loewe arsenal appeared in the spring 2017 womenswear portfolio. Anderson enhanced the simple woven palm-leaf market bag and had the foresight to price it properly.
It’s handwoven in Spain with beautiful leather trim from the label. The true beauty of this bag, though, resides in its embrace of superb aesthetics. So no need to recreate the idea again; Loewe’s Basket bag accomplishes everything it should, and it comes in a range of colors and sizes, so there’s no excuse not to carry it all year round.
Wrapping it up
Step by step, Loewe is now an eye-catching brand that has garnered accolades and appreciation from a wide swath of the fashion market. You can never go wrong if you invest in one of Loewe’s high-quality products that will become a treasured part of your wardrobe. Not only a trendsetting leader in bags and ready-to-wear apparel, Loewe also is now entering the perfume and other accessories markets.
A fashion event is one of those shows that are pleasing to go to. Especially for fashion enthusiasts, there’s something about these events that make them attractive and well attended. There’s a good reason fashion weeks in some countries exist, and that’s because many people simply love fashion. From the glitz and glamour to the makeup, shoes, jewelry, and clothing to the appetizers and wine, people can’t get enough of these events.
If you’re planning on staging your own fashion show, this article is for you. Ensuring your fashion event will be a success won’t be easy—you need to put in a lot of hard work. It’s not something you’ve thought about one day and then wing it the next. You need to have ample preparation to ensure nothing goes wrong on the day of the event. If you don’t know where to start, here are five key tips to be successful in organizing your fashion event.
Secure The Venue
The first step to hosting a successful fashion event is to secure your venue. What’s an event without a venue? You don’t want to put off this task as you’d never know if somebody else would be booking on your desired date. The earlier you can reserve your venue, the better. Try to browse for venues online, like on The Vendry and similar sites, where you can check the venue’s details and description, send inquiries, and read customer feedback.
When choosing a venue, one of the most important factors to consider is the size. Your venue has to accommodate your fashion event comfortably. If you plan to set up a stage or runway, you need a venue that will allow you to install one. Also, think of other basic amenities, like bathrooms and rooms for your dressing area, and check whether they can be provided. Inquire, too, if they have enough lights, speakers, and other equipment for your sound system.
Identify Your Purpose
Different brands or event organizers have their respective reasons for hosting a fashion event. Whatever your reason is, use this as your motivation to keep going, especially on days it seems impossible to make your show a success. Your purpose is also what will set your fashion event apart from others.
So as you get your plans off the ground and start planning your fashion event, try to identify what your purpose is. Some of the most common reasons are:
Raising money for charity
Showing a designer’s latest collection, for example, their newly released spring, summer, autumn, or winter wear
Increasing awareness for a cause
Launching a new fashion product or business
Select Your Theme
A fashion event’s theme will most likely depend on the designer’s collection or the products you’re promoting, particularly their aesthetics and style. The key here is to achieve a well-curated, coordinated, and elegant show that pays attention to key details from start to finish.
You wouldn’t want to settle for anything less. As much as possible, you want to create that wow factor in the eyes of your event goers. This is important so you can create a buzz both offline and online.
Choose Your Models ASAP
A fashion event wouldn’t be a fashion event without the models as they’re the ones to wear the clothes and promote the products you’re introducing to the market. So once you’ve settled all the details about your fashion show, it’s time to cast your models.
This is a crucial step, so it has to be done accurately and as soon as possible. The models can make or break your event. They hold the key to whether the designs and products you’re introducing will be brought to life.
Choosing your models as soon as possible gives you enough time to get the casting done. This way, you don’t have to rush and settle for models you don’t find fit to wear the brand you’re representing just because you didn’t have enough time to prepare. But while you’re doing the casting, don’t forget to ensure everything is clear when it comes to the models’ fees and wages.
Market And Promote Your Event
To get the word out about your fashion event, you have to promote it. The event won’t make a mark in the fashion world if you aren’t able to attract your target attendees. As soon as your details are final, that should be your go signal to start advertising and spreading the word about your event.
Conclusion
When all is said and done, the main objective of why you’re setting up a fashion show should be achieved. Whether it’s to present a new collection or market new designs and products, a successful fashion event is also a good marketing stunt. But no successful event was ever planned overnight. It entails long hours of brainstorming and planning to make it a success. The tips above will help get you started.
As we come back blinking into the light, the returns of theater, live music, restaurants, nights out, fashion shows and (for some of us) the office, the questions of what to wear — now that we’re more than just (literally) talking heads — is starting to loom large once again. New York, London and Milan Fashion Weeks have just come and gone, and instead of seeing a single trend, there’s been a mishmash of ideas. The Guardian thinks there’ll be 21 ‘tribes’ going forward into next year, with everything from vaporwave moving from visual arts into fashion, to goblincore. As we nervously put down the sweatpants, let’s have a look at some of the key ideas from spring/summer 2022’s designs.

The office
While it’s going to be nice to make a touch more effort, it seems designers at London Fashion Week haven’t let go of the idea of comfort yet — however there’s no move to resurrect the power suit just yet. Instead, the 90’s are still big – specifically England in the early 90’s – hemlines are relaxed, jeans are baggy. Prints are bold – think plaids and florals; colors are primary. Don’t be afraid to dust off your chunky platforms; if we’re putting something on our feet it doesn’t have to be plantar fasciitis-risking heels quite yet.
The big night out
If you’re hitting the casino, that might be the time to show off. While most of us have been gaming (and shopping) online in the comfort of our own homes over the past period, some of the poker rooms of Las Vegas remain fairly upscale. However, as the new generation of female poker professionals like Kara Scott and Vivian have shown, there’s way more to the card table than cocktail dresses and LBDs. New York showed us that the long knit has definitively made the jump from the high street to high fashion; asymmetric shapes and cold shoulders turn practicality on its head. Pairing up flowing lines with a tight clutch purse makes for a smooth transition from day to eveningwear, as shown in our article “6 Awesome Looks This Summer: How to Accessorize Properly.”
The beach
Starved of travel over the pandemic, if you thought beachwear was going to be a key trend for next season, then you’d be correct. Resort wear sales are up 240% in 2021 over 2020. Miami Swim Week pointed to a continuation of what we’re seeing in everyday styles. Florals are everywhere, kaftans are big, comfort is emphasized. However the swimwear underneath the sarong gets more adventurous as we get back into shape for next summer. Think futuristic fabrics in textured bikinis, more straps than a Rolex accessories dealer and cut-outs galore. And again, with the bold accessorizing, crochet wraps and belly chains will be ubiquitous.
Getting dressed up is going to mean different things to different folks over the coming seasons. As we’ve mentioned above, even heading to the office could feel like preparing for a fashion show after the last year and a half. But when it is finally time to do it, enjoy the process!
