Spanish fashion house Loewe is opening another one of its “collector’s homes” abroad.
Stationed in global shopping hubs, from London’s upscale Mayfair neighborhood to Chicago’s Oak Street stretch, the brand’s Casa retail concept has reached Shanghai. Stocking men's and women's ready-to-wear and bags, to small leather goods, accessories, eyewear, shoes, jewelry, home scents and boutique-exclusive launches across roughly 7,480 square feet, the new store is now Loewe’s largest in Asia.

Inside, a color palette of white, brown, gold, orange and green complements materials such as marble, brass, glass and oak, boasting handcrafted fixtures and a modern feel.
In Shanghai, as is the case with all Casa locations (see story), Loewe’s luxury collections are framed by art and craft; each space’s interior design reflects the label’s desire to showcase high-level cultural connoisseurship.

Utrecht armchairs and stone tables from the likes of Dutch designer and architect Gerrit Thomas Rietveld and Belgian antiques dealer and interior designer Axel Vervoordt, respectively, are among the furniture on display.
Also featured throughout are ceramics by British potter John Ward and decorative pieces by Japanese bamboo-weaver Hafu Matsumoto.

An oak vessel from Bavaria-based woodturner Ernst Gamperl, who won the first Loewe Craft Prize in 2017, is exhibited on-site, as are painted works by artists Kenneth Price and Mahesh Baliga.
Upcoming additions include Japanese ceramicist Takayuki Sakiyama's stoneware sculpture entitled “Chōtō (Listening to the waves),” and Korean artist Dahye Jong's horsehair and stainless steel spheres, both recognized by the Loewe Foundation Craft Prize (see story).
