Matthieu Blazy

Was expecting a troll to vote Demna, proud of you all for showing me I should have more faith in tfs.

Jonathan Anderson overall had 2023 on his hands. Top collections, social media buzz, dressed 2 of the biggest superstars for their highly publicized performances and I feel like he has taken Loewe and himself to a next level.

Anthony Vaccarello had good collections. But in a way, he has been consistent for the past 2 years. He is keeping the momentum.

Phoebe Philo’s buzz was at an all time high.

I feel so bad for Demna! 😂 Even Sabato's Ancora abortion got a vote!

(MOD EDIT: Mods, please also count this as a vote for Blazy when tallying up votes!)

Mathieu Blazy.. but I vote Jonathan Anderson

I believe Jonathan Anderson is one of the most influential designers of our generation. He has managed to captivate our attention with his surreal and magical creations, playing with forms, textures, and our perception simultaneously. I think he has skillfully balanced both the Loewe brand and his own label. I feel that he has successfully captivated us. Anderson has, in my opinion, transformed Loewe into a compelling brand with a fresh perspective.

Another vote for Phoebe and her namesake debut.

I think Matthieu Blazy had a far bigger impact and deserves more to be in the list than Sabato

The final list of nominees was based on the overall level of engagement each respective designer generated here on tFS (even if negative, as evidenced by the first selection on the poll, LOL). Sabato's D&C threads ended up taking the lead over Blazy towards the second half of 2023, so he ended up being chosen in the final selection.

Miuccia Prada

 

[FashionFanatico]

^
it makes really sense. as both Prada & Miu Miu are in the collection of the year category.
especially Miu Miu had a huge impact on the high street for many seasons now.
