Maison 10 of 100 · Fashion & Couture
Loewe
The reading
Jonathan Anderson made a 180-year-old Madrid leather workshop the most interesting fashion house of the 2020s. Craft is the product: leather that folds like origami, scarves that look like paintings. Spain’s single seat at the global luxury table.

The figure, and where it comes from
This house carries no figure. The claim the register used to print here was withdrawn in the truth pass of 23 September 2026 and nothing was put in its place, because nothing verifiable existed. The reasoning is on the corrections page.
Where it sits in this register
It is the 19th-oldest house in the register. Counted inside its own room it stands 10th of the twenty-five houses this register files under Fashion & Couture. The register's Spain cohort runs to two, this house among them. LVMH holds twenty-one of the hundred, this one among them: Louis Vuitton, Dior, Celine, Fendi, Givenchy, Loro Piana, and fourteen more. Its nearest founding years in the register are A. Lange & Söhne (1845) and Cartier (1847). Put the other way: seventy-five of the hundred are filed outside Fashion & Couture.
