Loewe's Jonathan Anderson plays this or that with iconic brand momentsfrom @loewe

[01]

Overview

Loewe's creative director, Jonathan Anderson, engages in a rapid-fire 'This or That' game where he must choose between two options presented by an off-camera interviewer. The choices, displayed as image overlays, pit iconic Loewe designs (like the Puzzle Bag and Pixel Hoodie) against major cultural moments (Beyoncé's Renaissance, Rihanna's Super Bowl), his own film projects (Challengers, Queer), and viral brand campaigns. He consistently chooses the Puzzle Bag over most options until the very end, where he ultimately picks the Maggie Smith campaign as the ultimate winner.
