Loewe, the luxury brand that falls under the prestigious LVMH umbrella and is led by the innovative creative director Jonathan Anderson, has recently named actress Taylor Russell as its new Global Ambassador. Russell’s role will involve not only opening Loewe’s SS23 women’s runway show, but also starring in the upcoming SS23 pre-collection campaign.
Jonathan Anderson expressed his deep admiration for Russell, sharing that he has never been so inspired by someone before. The connection between the two was sparked through a mutual friend, Italian director Luca Guadagnino, and their friendship has blossomed ever since. Anderson is immensely proud that Russell has agreed to open the SS23 show and is thrilled to welcome her into the Loewe family.
Russell herself recognizes the significance of becoming Loewe’s very first US-based Global Ambassador and has spoken highly of Anderson’s creativity and unique vision. She is thrilled about the possibilities that their partnership will bring and is eager to explore and collaborate with the esteemed luxury brand.
Apart from her role as Loewe’s Global Ambassador, Russell is making waves in the film industry. She can be seen in Luca Guadagnino’s film “Bones and All,” alongside the beloved talent Timothée Chalamet and Mark Rylance. The movie made a strong impact during its world premiere at the 2022 Venice International Film Festival and is set to hit cinemas soon, perfectly aligning with Loewe’s timing.
In addition, Russell gained recognition for her performance in Trey Edward Shults’ 2019 film “Waves,” which earned her a Gotham Award for Best Breakthrough Actor. Her impressive talent has garnered her numerous accolades, and Time magazine even recognized her as having one of the Best Movie Performances of 2019. Russell’s skill set extends beyond acting, as she is also a producer and director. She co-directed the powerful short film “The Heart Still Hums,” a 29-minute documentary that delves into the struggles faced by five women as they navigate drug addiction, homelessness, and neglect-induced trauma.
With Taylor Russell’s multifaceted talent and Loewe’s unwavering commitment to creativity and innovation, this partnership undoubtedly promises to be a captivating collaboration in the realms of fashion and entertainment.
