Jonathan Anderson - Designer, Creative Director of J.W. Anderson & Dior Men

How would y'all describe Jonathan Anderson's fashion legacy at Loewe? I'm specifically talking about the clothes (i.e. not the Puzzle bag) - what best sums up his tenure at the house?

Obviously there was a huge emphasis on experimentation with craft, proportions, construction etc. but has there been a defining aesthetic / silhouette that he will be remembered for?

Nothing.

I remember his jwa espadrille clogs more than anything from loewe.

Maybe the inspiration in the nature, like the roses-shaped heels and that sweater with grass. Nothing more.
 
A menswear designer par excellence, no? This is exactly what's needed chez Dior. (src: redcarpetfashionawards.com)

yesterday i came across with this and i totally forgot about it...

PS that Vogue writer gaves me cringe everytime, a mix of ugly betty and law roach and what i dont like about mostly all vogue editors is how they have zero spontaneity and have the AW complex.

 
I will remember his Loewe as something very gimmick focused and lacking a clear message. He had great moments but most of his collections felt like kitchen sink with random ideas thrown in. I loved his last collection and the spring 2022.
 
Yeah, I don’t know if that’s true but someone with a very high position in LV*H told me that. I guess she was offered Fendi and she declined.
A blessing in disguise, now let us convince Silvia to comeback to womenswear
 
Damn, it's quite funny to see JWA's Loewe tenure eviscerated on here given how lauded he's been in the media over the years. I know the press aren't exactly objective, but still...opinions seem to be worlds apart 😄
 
Isn't that pretty much every working designer these days?
yes, except for a very small minority; specifically, the japanese masters like yohji and rei, who built their successes off of pure ingenuity in fashion design. the same could be said for others like theyskens and galliano. although, in their case, i suppose both are technically no longer working at the moment? or at the very least only show sporadically.
