PARIS — Loewe Fall 2026 introduced Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez’s first menswear for the house alongside womenswear during Paris Fashion Week, March 6, 2026. The collection pushed Loewe’s craft language into a louder, stranger and more playful register, using leather, shearling, knitwear and engineered surfaces to make technique feel emotional rather than clinical.
Loewe Fall 2026 turns craft into a statement of joy
The designers framed the season around making as pleasure, writing on Loewe’s Fall Winter 2026 runway page that craft can be “an expression of joy.” That idea came through in pieces that looked inflated, molded, twisted or exaggerated, but still rooted in the Spanish house’s long-running leather expertise.
According to Vogue’s Fall 2026 runway coverage, the show expanded the new creative directors’ vision after their womenswear debut. Rather than chase restraint, McCollough and Hernandez leaned into color, odd volume and tactile impact.
First menswear gives Loewe Fall 2026 a broader runway
The biggest shift was menswear. GQ described the collection as the duo’s first men’s outing for Loewe, noting pieces such as inflatable leather parkas, seamless leather hoodies and poodle-like shearling. The result gave the house a more complete wardrobe language, one where men’s and women’s ideas could overlap without feeling interchangeable.
That continuity matters because McCollough and Hernandez arrived at Loewe after Jonathan Anderson’s 11-year tenure. Their appointment, reported by The Associated Press in 2025, followed Anderson’s transformation of Loewe into one of luxury’s most closely watched houses.
Their first season already hinted at this direction. In Vogue’s reactions to their Spring 2026 debut, industry observers pointed to the designers’ mix of color, craft and commercial clarity. Fall 2026 builds on that foundation with more confidence and a sharper sense of humor.
A new chapter, not a clean break
Loewe Fall 2026 does not abandon the house’s past. It extends it. The collection keeps the brand’s obsession with material intelligence, but changes the mood from cerebral surrealism to bold, high-tech play.
That makes the season feel less like a reset than a handoff. McCollough and Hernandez are not simply preserving Loewe’s craft codes; they are making them louder, brighter and more physical. With menswear now fully in the mix, Loewe’s next chapter looks ready to speak in a bigger voice.
