Velvet, moldings and stone stairs, it is certain that no other place than the medical school would have been better suited to host the fall-winter 2010/2011 collection of the Madrid-based house. Sinatra’s voice is heard, and we are immediately catapulted into a dark café of the 60s.
It is comfortably installed around small tables covered with velvet that a real Hitchcock heroine imposes herself to us in tweed suit and veil. An Ava Gardner in plumetis tights.
Self-confident and mysterious, the Loewe woman plays with the classics, revisits them, and makes us rediscover the feminine side of a tailcoat and a pencil skirt. Skins and mink meticulously worked, revealed by touch, sometimes on a collar, sometimes on a parka in sheepskin, accentuating the chic and the audacity of the silhouette. The relatively discreet leather is appreciated in a strapless dress delicately raised by a cape in iridescent feathers. A chic of the lost years, the time of Marlene Dietrich and Greta Garbot that we are very sad to leave once the show is over.
