Jonathan Anderson

Northern Irish designer Jonathan Anderson studied menswear at the London College of Fashion and founded JW Anderson in 2008, where his gender-fluid silhouettes and craft-driven knitwear made him a critical darling. LVMH took a stake in 2013 and the same year installed him as creative director of Loewe, where his eleven-year tenure transformed the Spanish leather house into a culture-led platform — Puzzle bag, Loewe Craft Prize, surreal trompe-l'œil collections, and a string of Best Designer awards. He stepped down from Loewe in March 2025. In April 2025 LVMH named him artistic director of Dior Men, then in June 2025 expanded the appointment to oversee Dior womenswear, menswear and haute couture — making him the first sole creative director of Dior since Monsieur Dior himself.
