Loewe Debuts Pixelated Clothes That Blur Line Between Virtual And Reality
By Alexa Heah, 12 Apr 2023
Ever wanted to look like a video game character, but in the real world? Now’s the chance, as Loewe recently launched the ‘Pixel Story’—an extension of its Spring/Summer 2023 Collection that taps into the power of optical illusions to blur the line between virtual and reality.
Instead of only expressing themselves through the pixelated outfits offered in digital worlds, fashion-forward consumers can now reenact the looks out on the street through the range’s pixel products.
According to the brand, designers focused on the lines, colors, and shapes of each garment, creating a glitchy pattern that redefines the typical T-shirts, shirts, and chinos through innovative 3D seams.
The collection first debuted at the label’s runway show earlier this year, where fans got a glimpse of the pixelated hoodie and t-shirt, but it has now expanded to include denim pieces and even a special iteration of the famed Puzzle bag.
Each piece will be presented in limited-edition packaging that reimagines Loewe’s signature logo in 8-bit form, complete with a collector’s box and paper bag reminiscent of something you’d see in an early 2000s multiplayer game.
