This !!!JW Anderson is a designer I DON NOT love. I swear, I made an effort in the past to find reasons to, but I gave up eventually.
His creative approach is shallow, despite his faux-intellectual inclinations, and people get easily carried away by his undeniable skills in wrapping things up nicely as an art-director: because this is what he basically is, certainly not a designer.
His technical skills are limited and his collections under his eponymous label are mostly made of basic items zhuzhed up with silly details or prints. The reasons why it looks like he's making more of an effort at Loewe is that he's got more expertise and better materials to work with over there. But the collections, as of recently, are still made up of the same three or four looks repeated in turn ad nauseam.
I said it already but it's worth repeating: his success and fame are mostly due to his extreme ambition and, above all, the luck in being working in the most creatively depleted era in the history of fashion. Nobody would have taken him seriously if he had been around in the 90s and his work had to be confronted with the likes of Margiela and Lang.
We are soo hungry for new ideas that we end up seeing genius where there's none.

I hate you, because now I'm fantasizing about Loewe by Margiela.I said it already but it's worth repeating: his success and fame are mostly due to his extreme ambition and, above all, the luck in being working in the most creatively depleted era in the history of fashion.
