Jonathan Anderson's ongoing tenure at Loewe is notable for many things, one of which is the deft ways he has modernised the Spanish leather goods House by infusing art and culture into the brand's visual lexicon. Another highlight is the birth of hit bags such as the Puzzle and the Hammock, each conceptualised and produced using the high standards of craftsmanship Loewe is renowned for. The latest addition to Loewe's roster of accessories? The Gate bag, which makes its debut this spring/summer 2018 season.

Named after its most unique detail—a side leather latch held in place by a sleek metallic hinge—the saddle-shaped bag advances Loewe's ethos of functionality, design and quality with sophisticated panache.

Expertly put together by artisans in Madrid and available in two sizes, the Gate bag boasts a sturdy body constructed from supple leather. Elsewhere, thoughtful partitions and pockets, plus a subtle suede lining, make the bag a worthy wardrobe ally to have. It's one stunning package that'll look better with the passing of time; its rich hues further enriched by the stories of the woman it accompanies.
