Loewe's 2026 Spring/Summer collection marked Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez's Paris debut, where Spanish heritage met New York experimentalism in a boundary-pushing showcase. Glossy heat-sealed leather jackets and multi-layered scarf dresses amplified volume through strategic seam allowances and cascading ruffles, reinterpreting the brand's artisan legacy through a contemporary lens.
The duo's innovative approach shone through in their treatment of wardrobe staples—jeans, button-down shirts, T-shirts, and windbreakers were reimagined with leather, hand-pleating, spray-painting, and wire techniques. Technical experimentation reached new heights with 3D-printed velvet towel dresses and silk Gore-Tex windbreakers, demonstrating the expansive possibilities of high-craft expertise and material innovation.
The season's standout accessory, the one-handle Amazona bag, came in suede, leather, and crocodile variations, balancing sophistication with an effortlessly practical "running-for-the-subway" energy. McCollough and Hernandez successfully honored Loewe's craftsmanship DNA while injecting their signature New York vitality, proving that tradition and experimentation can coexist to create something entirely fresh.
