Loewe was first founded in 1848 by Enrique Loewe Roessberg, making it one of the oldest luxury houses still around today. For over 150 years, Loewe has been creating gorgeous ready-to-wear collections and accessories that are totally irresistible. Now under the leadership of creative director Jonathon Anderson, this brand has become one of the most popular for unique handbags and super fashionable clothing.

The 8 best Loewe bags
1. Most Iconic: The Puzzle Bag
The Loewe Puzzle bag was first spotted at the Men’s Spring Summer show in 2015 and was an instant hit. The sculptural silhouette made up of geometric, puzzle-like elements, and the versatility of this bag, with its top handle and shoulder strap, has made it a cult classic that is beloved by celebrities, fashion editors, and influencers alike.
The popularity of this bag has meant that it is now available in a wide range of different colors and sizes, so you can easily find the one that best suits your personal style.
The Puzzle bag is crafted from 9 pieces of leather by the expert Loewe craftsmen in Madrid, however, it is worth noting that the brand is focussing its attention on the Puzzle Edge bag, where each piece of leather overlaps each other, which makes the bag less complex therefore less expensive to make. The Original Loewe Puzzle, with the separated puzzle pieces of leather, is still available but may be discontinued in time – albeit at the moment, these are just rumors.

2. Best Day To Night: Flamenco
The relaxed, slouchy look of the Flamenco Leather Bag makes it the perfect bag to move seamlessly from day to night.
This Loewe bag has a long and rich history, first featuring in the bag collection in the 1970s, the Flamenco was reinterpreted by previous creative director, Stuart Vevers in 2010 giving the bag a modern touch, while Anderson put his own touch on the Flamenco with the addition of knots on the drawstring pulls and an embossed logo.
The sumptuous silhouette is accentuated by the luxe nappa calfskin leather, while the ruffle at the top of the bag reflects a flamenco dancer’s dress, referencing the luxury brand’s Spanish heritage. This clutch is intended to be carried under the arm for evening wear but you can pick up the crossbody strap to transform this bag for daytime wear. There are a variety of gorgeous pastel shades available to add a soft pop of color to any look.

3. Best For Everyday: Squeeze
The Squeeze is one of the newest additions to the Loewe handbag collection, debuting on the Fall/Winter 2023 runway. Anderson has combined the expert leather craftsmanship we always see in Loewe bags with innovative designs to create this luxurious, effortlessly stylish bag that can be worn on your shoulder or across the body to suit your everyday look.
This bag is crafted from buttery soft nappa leather, which is left unlined to create a soft structure and ensure a lightweight finish. The ruched top line creates ripples within the nappa leather and contains the donut chain, with a clever system that makes the chain adjustable to wear as a shoulder or crossbody bag.
The interior is spacious enough for all your everyday essentials, plus there is a zipper pocket inside the bag to help you stay organized. The bag is currently available in small and medium sizes and 6 different neutral and earth tones.

4. Best For The Summer: Loewe Font Tote
Raffia bags are a must-have for the summer months and Loewe is known for making some of the best raffia bags, including the timeless Loewe Font Tote.
Loewe always pays particular attention to the craftsmanship and materials of its bags and this tote is no different, crafted in Madagascar by local artisans who have been using this hand-crocheted technique for generations to weave the local raffia palms into this stunning bag.
This tote has a classic, cuboid shape, with top handles built in, while the Loewe brand name really pops in black against the neutral beige tone on the front of the bag. For added versatility, this tote comes with a tan leather strap so the bag can be worn across the body too, making it ideal for summer days exploring as well as relaxing on the beach.
While we love this bag in the smallest size, if you’re looking for a practical bag, the Font Tote also comes in medium and large sizes which are perfect for travel.
