The Art of Loewe Puzzle

The Loewe Puzzle is the most sought-after unique and clever design. It is geometrical and intricately constructed handbag. It is a very distinct cuboid shape that is perfected through a sharp cutting technique. The interlocking of the leather panels gives the bag a “puzzle like effect” from where it derived its name. Furthermore, all Loewe bags are hand-stitched. The entire process of sewing takes up to nine hours to complete hand-stitching its bags.   After Jonathan Anderson reclaimed the position of creative director in 2013, he was tasked with developing a new model that may become Loewe's next it-bag. The Puzzle first surfaced in the brand's Spring/Summer 2015 collection of men's pieces and immediately crossed over to the girl's division as well. Its shape is handcrafted in Spain, taking more than 500 steps in the process of construction. Its puzzle angular silhouette was jarring against its relaxed structure, since these were apparent features present in pieces he designs for his self-titled label. The Puzzle bag has been designed to be elegant yet practical. It features: Adjustable and detachable strap: This facilitates versatile carrying modes.

The hourglass is stylish yet practical, the uniqueness in such an hourglass form is created by a structured frame and a specific curve in the middle to make it look sophisticated and stylish piece that stands out above the rest of the handbags. Since then, its trend has gained momentum due to variations in materials, colors, and embellishments to add freshness and desirability to the style.   Key Features: Hourglass Shape: It is what defines the silhouette and gives the look elegance to the bag. Top Handle: Mostly equipped with a top handle for easy carrying and usually made of leather or metal.  Chain Strap:Some have detachable chain straps. This makes the bag versatile when styled as from shoulder to cross-body. • Materials: These come in a wide range of materials that can be from leather, suede, denims,and even crocodile embossedleather,...
