LOEWE

Rather than climbing the walls during lockdown, Jonathan Anderson has been dressing them. The designer’s collection for Spanish house Loewe was all developed remotely from his home in London, prompting him to create a “Show-on-the-wall”. Journalists and customers were sent life-size posters of items, as well as a roll of Anthea Hamilton-designed wallpaper and paste. A surprising number of followers were game for redecorating and now a scroll through Loewe’s Instagram page shows downstairs loos papered in a print that had been applied in the collection to a suit with balloon sleeves and trouser legs. Anderson’s art was certainly multidisciplinary and the clothes he showed were sculptural. Corset boning was manipulated to create theatrical crinolines and dresses featured giant fabric knots, or puffball hems.
