Greetings from Montreux where fashion meets art at the lake. Ken Price (1935 – 2012) was a Californian artist, born and raised in Los Angeles, whose esoteric style defied categorization. Calling on eclectic influences from Mexican folk art to erotica and surf culture, his output included vibrant landscapes that have become the focus of Loewe’s capsule collection – a selection of limited edition ready-to-wear, iconic bags and accessories.
When Price died in 2012, his obituaries universally acknowledged the scale of his impact on modern and contemporary art. The New York Times described him as «one of the outstanding artists of postwar America», while the Washington Post noted his role in «expanding orthodox definitions of American and European sculpture.»
My look: Cropped asymmetric denim jacket, and Tread Slick canvas and rubber exaggerated-sole ankle boots, both by Alexander McQueen, printed cotton hoodie, and matching small La Palme Heel bag, both by Loewe x Ken Price, track pants in salmon by Moschino, wide bow hair clip by Jennifer Behr, and crystal-embellished sunglasses by Gucci.
LoL, Sandra

Dream more and make it happen. For me, anything is possible if I dress accordingly. The right outfit can make me feel confident, comfortable, and ready to conquer the world. It’s like wearing my personality or the attitude I would like to express on the outside.
Wearing a suit and a tie, combined with a pair of glasses can convey a sense of professionalism, confidence and sophistication. And can you see … modern angels are wearing their wings on their heels.
My look: Antiope double-breasted wool-blend blazer, Dovere wool-blend shirt, Ondina wool-blend shorts, and Giulia wool-blend tie, all by Max Mara, wide bow hair clip by Jennifer Behr, glasses by Tom Ford, Tribale earrings by Dior, logo tights by CHANEL, Pégasus heels by Hermès, Da Vinci laptop bag by Louis Vuitton x Jeff Koons Masters Collection.

Say cheese! In Switzerland, you do that literally all the time, as it is the cheese capital of the world. Being such an integral part of its cuisine, the infamous cheese fondue and raclette are prime examples. During my stay at the Gstaad Palace, I ate at least once or twice a week at the so-called «Fromagerie» (French for cheesery), where those photos were taken. In case you wondering about the sausages, Swiss people like to start with a «Plättli» (little plate) of dry meat.
As this kind of food is pretty heavy and also very odorous, I recommend wearing something comfy. I love this mountain look, it is the perfect combination of being stylish, yet cozy. And the best is yet to come, the back of the sweater is open, so you don’t get too hot!
My look: Crochet-knit collar mohair-blend sweater, and crystal-embellished pleated wool tartan midi skirt, both by Miu Miu, crystal-heart drop clip earrings by Alessandra Rich, wide bow hair clip by Jennifer Behr, Aria 105 suede pumps in dark blue by Aquazzura, and Cassandra medium YSL-plaque dark green leather cross-body bag by Saint Laurent.
