Bin your crusty old Zelda t-shirt, Loewe has finally made gamer fashion cool Leave a comment
A new Loewe fashion show has shown of a range off pixel-art apparel, which look so alike to the in-game aesthetics we’ve gotten used to over the years that at first glance, it looks photoshopped. However Look 19 and Look 34 in the Loewe Spring Collection 2023 are very real, and mind blowing.
The show itself had a wide selection of different looks, pushing boundaries in a variety of areas of modern apparel with clothing from the hands and mind of JW Anderson. The show was paired with prodding questions on “the fakeness behind our screens”, according to a write up on the Vogue Runway website.
In regard to the pixelated tops and trousers, Anderson offered an artistic description of his work, calling them, “this odd illusion that suddenly breaks the pattern”. It’s true, the clothing seems to literally jump off the frame, almost on another virtual layer above the background and fleshy features of the model. It is far and away a more impressive piece than those kids Minecraft creeper tees you see sold all over the place.
