Proenza Schouler Takes Over at Loewe, Debuts First Women’s Collection for Spring/Summer 2026
Get ready fashion lovers, because the dynamic duo of Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez from Proenza Schouler have officially taken the reins at Loewe. And let us tell you, their debut women’s collection for Spring/Summer 2026 is nothing short of spectacular.
The collection, which was unveiled at Paris Fashion Week, pays homage to Loewe’s Spanish roots with a vibrant color palette, dreamy beach-inspired pieces, and intricate leatherwork. As the new designers following in the footsteps of the highly acclaimed Jonathan Anderson, McCollough and Hernandez had big shoes to fill. But they did not disappoint.
Staying true to Anderson’s legacy, the collection features playful silhouettes with a surreal twist, all while showcasing impeccable tailoring and leather craftsmanship. The sunny Mediterranean palette and beach-ready numbers add a bold touch to the overall aesthetic.
Some of the standout looks include leather mini dresses in primary colors and floral patterns, as well as stiff leather pieces like miniskirts, blazers, and oversized handbags. The collection also features flowy maxi dresses, ruffled finishes, and bouncy fringe for added movement and texture.
But the real showstoppers were the beachgoer-inspired pieces, including iridescent towel wrap dresses and massive striped gowns that looked like they were repurposed from beach cabanas. And let’s not forget the playful nod to Anderson’s whimsical style with scrunched and wrinkled garments that looked like they had been drying in the sun for hours.
All in all, McCollough and Hernandez have shown their talent for adapting to Loewe’s established style while injecting their own fresh energy. We can’t wait to see what they have in store for the future. Check out the full collection in the gallery above and stay tuned for more fashion industry insights from Hypebeast.
