Welcome to Casa Loewe.

- By BEN CHIN

After British designer Jonathan Anderson took over the reigns as creative director at Spanish luxury label Loewe, he started ushering in an era of revitalisa­tion to the 170-year-old fashion house. His new concept for boutiques, Casa Loewe, debuted in Singapore in January – only the third city after Tokyo and Milan to unveil the Anderson-designed store.

Elegant Nero Marquina marble from Spain covers the facade, contrastin­g with the silver travertine tiles. A standout feature is the emerald agate stone ceiling at the entrance, a homage to the canopy in the Madrid flagship boutique, designed by renowned architect Javier Carvajal in 1959.

The dark walnut-toned display tables and taupe wool carpets form the ideal backdrop for Loewe’s spring/ summer 2016 collection­s for men and women, as well as a limited-edition white collection to commemorat­e the new Casa. The collection, which includes the Puzzle Bag and Elephant Coin Purse, is only available in the Singapore boutique. www.loewe.com ≠
